If the average hydrostatic pressure in the glomerular capillaries is 55 mm Hg, the hydrostatic If the average hydrostatic pressure in the glomerular capillaries is 55 mm Hg, the hydrostatic pressure in Bowman's space is 15 mm Hg, the average colloid osmotic pressure in the glomerular capillaries is 30 mm Hg, and there is no protein in the glomerular ultrafiltrate, what is the net pressure driving glomerular filtration in this example?
A) 0 mm Hg
B) 5 mm Hg
C) 10 mm Hg
D) 15 mm Hg
E) 25 mm Hg
F) 45 mm Hg
