2.73 Glucose Re-absorption
Notes
Selective reabsorption of glucose occurs at PCT --> Glomerula filtrate (glucose) ---reabsorption---> Blood stream
Filtrate contains:
-> Glucose
-> Water (collecting duct)
-> Salt
-> Urea
Urine = NO glucose? Due to filtration at PCT
--> Glucose is selectively reabsorbed (back into bloodstream) and taken out of the nephron system
