Reabsorption is the process by which molecules move from the proximal convoluted tubule into the blood.
Tubular secretion eliminates waste products and drugs from the bloodstream to maintain proper balance in the body.
The active transport of penicillin from the blood into the nephron is an example of tubular secretion, a key process in the renal elimination of drugs and waste products. This process involves the movement of substances from the blood into the renal tubules for excretion in the urine.
Tubular secretion plays a minor role in regulating blood pH compared to other mechanisms such as respiration and kidney filtration. It primarily helps in the elimination of excess hydrogen ions and other solutes from the blood to maintain acid-base balance within the body.
Active transport of substances from the blood into the nephron is called tubular secretion. This process involves the movement of certain substances, such as drugs and ions, from the blood into the renal tubules for excretion in the urine. It helps in regulating the composition of body fluids and maintaining homeostasis.

True!
Tubular secretion eliminates waste products and drugs from the bloodstream to maintain proper balance in the body.
Tubular secretion is a part of urine formation occurring within the nephrons of the kidneys. After glomerular filtration, in which fluids from the blood pass into the glomerular capsule of the renal tubule, the filtrate is subject to tubular reabsorption and tubular secretion within the convoluted tubules and collecting ducts of the nephrons.

The mechanism of urine formation takes place by three steps. they are glomerular filtration, tubular reabsorption and tubular secretion.
