Which molecules are filtered through the glomerulus into Bowman?s capsule?

Dear student,

The filterable components/molecules present in the blood, which are filtered into Bowman's capsule are water, nitrogenous waste, and nutrients such as urea, creatinine, sodium, potassium, calcium, chloride, and bicarbonate.

Dear student,

The blood is filtered across the capillary walls of this tuft through the glomerular filtration barrier, which yields its filtrate of water and soluble substances to a cup-like sac known as Bowman's capsule. The filtrate then enters the renal tubule of the nephron.

Regards.
