(a)
Glomerular filtration occurs in Bowman’s capsule when the hydrostatic pressure in the glomerulus is 70 mm Hg and net filtration rate is 10 mm Hg. Effective Filtration Pressure (EEP) or Net Filtration Pressure (NEP) is Glomerular Blood Hydrostatic Pressure (GBHP) minus the Colloidal Osmotic Pressure of Blood (BCOP) and Capsular Hydrostatic Pressure (CHP)
EEP/NFP = GBHP – (BCOP + CHP)
