What is obligatory reabsorption?
the reabsorption of water from pct,alh in nephron which is not influenced by adh.
How does sodium reabsorption affect water reabsorption?
If sodium reabsorption increases, water reabsorption increases as well.
Which section of the nephron performs MOST of the glucose and water reabsorption?
proximal convoluted tubule
What is the process of reabsorption as it occurs in nephrons?
Glucose reabsorption takes place in the proximal renal tubule. This tubule is a portion of the nephron that contains fluid. The functions of the nephron include the reabsorption and secretion of various substances like ions, glucose, and amino acids.
Where does obligatory 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.

When water moves from a nephron in the kidney back to the blood it is called?
Reabsorption
How does sodium reabsorption affect water reabsorption?
If sodium reabsorption increases, water reabsorption increases as well.

Can the reabsorption of solutes influence water reabsorption in the nephron?
Yes, The movement of solutes into peritubular capillaries decreases the solute concentration of the tubular fluid but increases the solute concentration in the peritubular capillaries. As a result, water moves by osmosis into peritubular capillaries.
What hormones is also called the antidiuretic hormone?
It stimulates water reabsorption by the kidneys
Can diuretics have an affect on tubular function in the nephron?
Diuretics are medicines which relieve water retention in the body by increasing urination. This effect includes an increase in sodium and bicarbonate in the urine, due to the effect on the reabsorption function of the nephron.
What does peritubular capillaries do?
This capillary network surrounds the tubules and plays an important role in secretion and reabsorption, plus it delivers oxygen to kidney cells.
Where does most re-absorption of water occur in the digestive system?
large intestine.in the large intestine
Where does obligatory 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.
