A large amount of about 180 L of fluid is filtered by the human kidneys per day. Which one of the following renal corpuscle features does not justify this?

• A

  The glomerular capillaries have a large surface area.

• B

  The glomerular capillaries are fenestrated and hence leakier than other capillaries.

• C

  The glomerular capillaries have a higher blood pressure than the other capillaries of the body.

• D

  The efferent arteriole is wider than the afferent arteriole causing easier outflow of blood from the glomerulus.
