Materials are Returned to the Blood from the Filtrate by Which

Question

Materials are returned to the blood from the filtrate by which of the following processes?
A)filtration
B)ultrafiltration
C)selective reabsorption
D)secretion
E)active transport

Accepted Answer

Selective reabsorption is the process in which materials such as glucose, amino acids, and ions are reabsorbed from the filtrate back into the blood in the renal tubules. This process is selective because only certain substances are reabsorbed, while others are left in the urine to be excreted. This process is essential for maintaining proper fluid balance and electrolyte concentrations in the body.
