Which section of the nephron performs MOST of the glucose and water reabsorption?
proximal convoluted tubule
Where in the nephron does most solute reabsorption occur?
Proximal Convoluted Tubule
Where in the kidneys does the filtering takes place?
Within the nephron (the functional unit of the kidneys), filtration occurs in the glomerolus. The filtered fluid is called filtrate. Reabsorption of filtrate occurs in a few places within the nephron, however, the majority of reabsorption takes place in the proximal convoluted tube. It is important to mention that additional reabsorption occurs in the Loop of Henle, distal convoluted tube, and the collecting ducts as well. Again, however, MOST reabsorption of filtrate from the glomerolus takes place in the proximal convoluted tube of the nephron.
Where does water reabsorption occur?
Between tubular elements and vascular elements of the nephron beginnings with the proximal convoluted tubule and continuing at least part way into the distal tubule.
Where in the nephron is most glucose reabsord?
no
Which section of the nephron performs MOST of the glucose and water reabsorption?
proximal convoluted tubule
Most materials are reabsorbed from nephron tubules into surrounding blood vessels by the process known as?
Selective reabsorption
Where in the nephron does most solute reabsorption occur?
Proximal Convoluted Tubule
Where does most re-absorption of water occur in the digestive system?
large intestine.in the large intestine

Where does Most electrolyte reabsorption by the renal tublues occur?
Proximal tubule
Where does water reabsorption occur?
Between tubular elements and vascular elements of the nephron beginnings with the proximal convoluted tubule and continuing at least part way into the distal tubule.
Where does the most digestion in the stomach occur?
Most nutrient digestion occurs in the stomach
The U-shaped segment of the nephron is the?
The most distal portion of the nephron is the
Where in the nephron is most glucose reabsord?
no
Where does most reabsorption occur in the kidney?
The proximal tubule is the site of most reabsorption via glucose transporters (reabsorb 100% of glucose in healthy individuals), approx. 65% Sodium and various other solutes are also reabsorbed.
What ion cation do most diuretics work by blocking the renal reabsorption?
Potassium
