Question

Secretion takes place throughout the nephron,but mostly in the ________.
A) proximal convoluted tubule
B) loop of Henle
C) distal convoluted tubule
D) glomerulus

Accepted Answer

Secretion mainly takes place in the distal convoluted tubule. While some secretion also occurs in the proximal convoluted tubule and loop of Henle, the majority of it occurs in the distal convoluted tubule. The glomerulus is not involved in secretion, as its main function is filtration.
