Ultrafilteration/ bowmans capsule

High blood pressure / hydrostatic pressure; Caused by LV contraction; 3.      Small molecules (glucose, amino acids) can move through the pores of the capillary (but not red blood cells); 4.      Small molecules pass through the basement membrane; Protein too large to go through basement membrane; Molecules then pass through the podocytes and into the Bowman’s capsule.
