*Plasma [x] represents the total concentration (i.e., bound plus unbound)
Neither Substance A or C is protein bound. Proteins are too large to fit through the
fenestrae hence it would be filtered less. A fraction of Substance B and D are bound to
plasma protein. Substance B is has been filtered more than Substance D because it has
a higher percentage of unbound plasma protein . It can be gleaned from the table above
that inulin and Substance B are filtered alone while, Substance A is filtered and
reabsorbed, and Substance C and D are filtered and secreted.
