Answer:

Physiology.

The descending loop of Henle receives isotonic (300 mOsm/L) fluid from the proximal convoluted tubule (PCT). The fluid is isotonic because as ions are reabsorbed by the gradient time system, water is also reabsorbed maintaining the osmolarity of the fluid in the PCT.

Explanation:

PCT(Proximal Convoluted Tubule)

The convoluted portion of the vertebrate nephron that lies between Bowman's Capsule and the Loop of Henle and functions especially in the resorption of sugar, sodium and chloride ions, and water from the glomerular filtrate.

Loop of Henle

The U-shaped part of the nephron of birds and mammals that lies between and is continuous with the proximal and distal convoluted tubules and that functions in water resorption.

Hope it helps.
