Question

Maximum amount of water
from the glomerular filtrate is
reabsorbed in
O Proximal convoluted tubule
O Loop of Henle
O Malpighian capsule
O Distal convoluted tubule​

Answer 1

Answer:

Then nearly 99% of the filtrate is reabsorbed by renal tubules. Proximal convoluted tubules shows maximum reabsorption and nearly all the essential nutrients and 70-80% of electrolytes and, water are reabsorbed by this segment.

Answer 2

Answer:

The proximal convoluted tubule is lined by simple cuboidal brush border epithelium which increases the surface area for reabsorption. Antidiuretic hormone or vasopressin prevents the excess loss of water through urine. When blood volume is decreased the Vasopressin acts on the Proximal convoluted tubule and causes maximum water reabsorption which results in an increase in blood volume.

So, the correct answer is 'Proximal convoluted tubule'.

answer is A
