Answer»

The correct answer is (b) False

The EXPLANATION is: No, the PODOCYTES are not PRESENT in the epithelial lining of PCT. Instead, the epithelial cells of the BOWMAN’s capsule are called podocytes. These cells are arranged very CLOSED to each other but some minute spaces are left between these cells for the filtration to take place.
