The process by which most of the material in the nephron moves back into the blood is called
A) filtration
B) resorption
C) secretion
D) micturition

Accepted Answer

Resorption is the process by which most of the material in the nephron, such as water, glucose, amino acids, and ions, moves back into the blood. Filtration is the initial step in urine formation, where blood is filtered through the glomerulus. Secretion is the transfer of substances from the blood into the nephron, and micturition is the process of emptying the bladder.
