Filtrate is formed by hydrostatic pressure forcing fluid to leave the glomerulus. The filtrate is then collected by the glomerular capsule. List all of the structures, starting with the glomerular capsule, that fluid passes through until it eventually leaves the body. After you have listed the structures, indicate where the fluid is called filtrate, where it’s called tubular fluid, and where it is called urine. glomerular capsule→arrow_forward
