In a renal clearance test, the plasma concentration of inulin is \(0.10\) g L\(^{-1}\) and the urine concentration is \(12.0\) g L\(^{-1}\). The urine flow rate is \(1.0\) mL min\(^{-1}\). Calculate the glomerular filtration rate (GFR) in mL min\(^{-1}\) using the clearance formula, and state whether it is within the normal adult range (≈125 mL min\(^{-1}\)).
