What does blood reabsorb from the nephrons?
Glucose and some ions and water are the main substances that diffuse (or are actively transported) across the nephron, into the blood.
What is Active transport of substances from the blood into the nephron called?
Tubular secretion
How do nephrons eliminate wastes?
A nephron, also known as a kidney, regulates water and soluble substances by filtering the blood. The nephron reabsorbs what is needed and excretes the rest as urine.
The active transport of penicillin from the blood into the nephron is an example of the process of?
tubular secretion
explain how substances are exchanged between the blood entering the nephron and the filtrate leaving the collecting duct?

The process by which the renal tubule actively moves substances from the blood into the nephron to be excreted?
Tubular secretion
What does blood reabsorb from the nephrons?
Glucose and some ions and water are the main substances that diffuse (or are actively transported) across the nephron, into the blood.
What blood vessel exchanges substances with a nephron?
Capillary. The thin walls allow diffusion of materials to pass from the blood flow into the nephron.
The blood vessels that exchange substances with the nephron?
The afferent arteriole.
What is Active transport of substances from the blood into the nephron called?
Tubular secretion
What is the nephron process?
The nephron process is where the blood enters the glomerulus and is absorbed. It is then processed through the kidney's and turned into urine.

This is a nephron process that results in a substance in blood entering the already formed filtrate?
secretion
Are nephrons blood vessels in kidney?
Nephrons are NOT blood vessels in the kidneys. The nephron is a three-stage unit, located in the kidney, responsible for filtering and absorbing substances. There are about one million of these structures per kidney. # The filter unit is the primary part. Small molecules diffuse into the nephron from the capillaries. # The second stage is the reabsorption region. This is where certain molecules are actively transferred back into the blood. # Finally, the collecting duct transports the waste products to the bladder as urine.
Define tubular secretion?
Process whereby selected molecules are actively transported from the blood into the filtrate Process whereby selected molecules are actively transported from the blood into the filtrate
