what pressure is highest in renal corpuscle under normal condition?
glomerular blood hydrostatic pressure
what drugs promote fluid loss in urine?
diuretics
where does process of filtration occur?
bowman's capsule
why does an obstruction in proximal convoluted tubules decreases glomerular filtration rate ?
hydostatic pressure in glomerular capsule increases which will decrease net filtration pressure

podocyte of visceral layer
podocyte
if sympathetic stimulation to afferent and efferent arterioles decreases what will happen to glomerular filtration rate?
increase because both vessels less constricted
