Solution

Most of the tubular secretion occurs in the distal part of DCT.

Explanation:

The primary focus of PCT is reabsorption. Osmoregulation is carried out by Renie's loop using a counter-current mechanism. Peritubular blood veins surround the DCT, especially at the distal end, which is necessary for tubular secretion.
