Answer:
The correct answer is option - B. basement membrane.
Explanation:
The basement membrane of the glomerular basement membrane or GBM is a thin ribbon-like extracellular matrix located in between the endothelium and podocyte foot processes. Â
Biochemical and genetic studies have proved that the GBM or basement membrane during glomerular filtration prevents the leakage of plasma proteins such as albumin into the urine. It plays a crucial role as permselective barrier.
Thus, the correct answer is option B. basement membrane.
