Question

Which of the following describes a process that occurs along the proximal tubules of a nephron? O Glucose, lactate, and amino acids are reabsorbed. Urea is actively reabsorbed. O Toxins in the filtrate are detoxified. O Altered filtrate leaves the urinary system and the body.

Answer 1

solution Hello, today we are going to discuss about a 1. The proximal convoluted tubule is a poort of renal tubule in Nephron. The Nephron is the functional unit of kidney. The major reabsorption and filtration are our in the nephron. I - The Nephson consist of a parts: Renal corpusile and Renal tubule. In Renal cospusile, the bowman's capsule and glomerulus includes in Renal tubule, the proximal convoluted tubule, Loop of Henle and distal convoluted tubule and collecting duit included.

tubule. The important process ocurs in proximal convoluted tubule is option is) Gluose, lautate, & amino auds are reabsoarbed. About 100% of gluose, 65 of of water, 100% of aminoauds &65% of potassium chloride & Sodium each are reabsorbed in the proximal convoluted These are reabsorbed from the filtrate to the blood - The cells of PCT. (proximal convoluted Tubule) are ciliated, so this helps in maximum reabsorption- o the option B, 69D are wrong. Actually, only 50% oq urea is reabsorbed by PCT, ao and this reab sooption is along with water. I

The active reabsorption of area to maintain a normal blood ouur in collecting urea level. Duit

The detoxification of filtrate are not seen in PCT. The altered filtrate means, the filtrate that after filtration leaves the body by urination. It is not a function of peso Thank you
