The Glomerular Filtration Coefficient Does NOT Account For

Question

The glomerular filtration coefficient does NOT account for
A) glomerular membrane permeability.
B) net filtration pressure.
C) glomerular surface area.

Accepted Answer

The glomerular filtration coefficient accounts for the glomerular membrane permeability and the glomerular surface area, but not for the net filtration pressure. Net filtration pressure is a separate factor that influences the rate of glomerular filtration.
