What happens to glucose if it is not reabsorbed from the proximal convoluted tubule?
it pass through the next tubule
What are the parts of a nephron in order?
distal convoluted tubule, glomerulus, loop of henle, bowmans capsule, proximal convoluted tubule
How do Nutrients return to the blood through?
proximal convoluted tubule
What part of the nephron drains into the loop of henle?
proximal convoluted tubule
Is Proximal convoluted tubule the siteof glucose and amino acid?
Under normal conditions, the proximal convoluted tubule reabsorbs all of the glucose, lactate, and amino acids in the filtrate and 65% of the Na+ and water.
What happens to glucose if it is not reabsorbed from the proximal convoluted tubule?
it pass through the next tubule
What is removed at the proximal convoluted tubule?
About 90 % of the fitered sodium chlorid in glomerulus is reabsorbed in proximal convoluted tubules.
Where does most absorption take place in the kidney?
the majority occurs in the proximal convoluted tubule
In which part of the kidney is all of the glucose actively reabsorbed from the filtrate back into the blood?
Proximal convoluted tubule
What is the last portion of the renal tubule?
the three main portions of the renal tubule are the proximal convoluted tubule, the loop of henle, and the distal convoluted tubule. the proximal convoluted tubule is the first portion. The proximal (convulated) tubule.
What is the primary site of tubular reabsorption in the kidneys?
The distal convoluted tubule or the collecting tube.
What is reabsorbed in the proximal convoluted tubule?
Glucose, amino acids, [SOME of the following] phosphate, potassium, salt and water.
Why is there no glucose in urine?
All of the glucose are reabsorbed from the Proximal convoluted tubule into the surrounding capillaries,so there is no no glucose in urine.
What are the subdivisons of the renal tubule?
Proximal convoluted tubule, Loop of henle and Distal convoluted tubule.
What histological feature distinguishes proximal convoluted tubule from a distal convoluted tubule?
Proximal convoluted tubules have brush borders or microvilli on the inner edge of the tubule. Distal convoluted tubules do not have this structure.
Which substances present in the glomerular filtrate but not normally in urine?
glucose and amino acids, because they are selectively reabsorbed in the proximal convoluted tubule.
In which region of the nephron does secretion occur?
The distal tubule
