The correct Answer is:
To calculate the net filtration pressure (NFP) using the provided values, we can follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Given Values**: - Glomerular Hydrostatic Pressure (GHP) = 60 mm Hg - Blood Colloidal Osmotic Pressure (BCOP) = 30 mm Hg - Capsular Hydrostatic Pressure (CHP) = 20 mm Hg 2. **Understand the Formula for Net Filtration Pressure (NFP)**: The formula to calculate NFP is: \[ NFP = GHP - (BCOP + CHP) \] 3. **Substitute the Values into the Formula**: Substitute the given values into the NFP formula: \[ NFP = 60 \, \text{mm Hg} - (30 \, \text{mm Hg} + 20 \, \text{mm Hg}) \] 4. **Calculate the Sum of BCOP and CHP**: First, calculate the sum of BCOP and CHP: \[ BCOP + CHP = 30 \, \text{mm Hg} + 20 \, \text{mm Hg} = 50 \, \text{mm Hg} \] 5. **Subtract the Sum from GHP**: Now, subtract the sum from GHP: \[ NFP = 60 \, \text{mm Hg} - 50 \, \text{mm Hg} = 10 \, \text{mm Hg} \] 6. **Final Result**: The net filtration pressure (NFP) is: \[ NFP = 10 \, \text{mm Hg} \] ### Conclusion: Based on the calculation, the correct option is the one that states the net filtration pressure is 10 mm Hg.
