Question

The maximum amount of electrolytes and water (70-80%) from the glomerular filtrate is reabsorbed in which part of the nephron.

विकल्प

• Ascending limb of loop of Henle

• Distal convoluted tubule

• Proximal convoluted tubule

• Descending limb of loop of Henle

Answer 1

Proximal convoluted tubule

Explanation:

The glomerular filtrate enters the Proximal Convoluted Tubule (PCT) from the Bowman's capsule. PCT is the site of reabsorption and is surrounded by a network of pertibular capillaries. Before reaching Henle's loop, about 75% of glomerular filtrate is typically reabsorbed in PCT.
