Question

which section of the nephron is responsible for concentrating the solute in the filtrate?​

Answer 1

Answer:

Reabsorption in the loop of Henle: The filtrate then enters the loop of Henle (descending and ascending limbs), which is responsible for concentrating or diluting the tubular fluid using a process called countercurrent multiplication.

Explanation:

A IS THE CORRECT OPTION

Answer 2

The section of the nephron which is responsible for concentrating the solute in the filtrate is option (a) P

Explanation:

• Nephron in the Henle Loop, The filtered then enters the Henle Loop (descending and ascending limbs), which utilizes a process called countercurrent multiplication to concentrating the solute in the  tubular fluid.

• The proximal convoluted tubule is the initial portion of the nephron that is responsible for water reabsorption.

• Bowman's capsule sends filtered fluid towards the proximal tubule,       Urea, water, potassium, sodium, chloride, glucose, amino acids, lactate, phosphate, and bicarbonate are all reabsorbed in the PCT.

• While water is also reabsorbed, the volume of fluid in the Henle loop is about one-third of the original volume, similar to the PCT.
