Function of the Tubules
-
Which of the following diagrams is correct with regard to the proximal (P) and distal (D) tubule of the Nephron.
PCT reabsorbs electrolytes, water, and $HCO_3^-$ while secreting $H^+$ and $NH_3$; DCT facultatively reabsorbs $NaCl$, water, and $HCO_3^-$ while secreting $K^+$ and $H^+$.
According to the NCERT nephron transport diagram: Proximal Convoluted Tubule (PCT) reabsorbs $HCO_3^-$, $NaCl$, and $H_2O$ and selectively secretes $H^+$ and $NH_3$. Distal Convoluted Tubule (DCT) reabsorbs $NaCl$, $H_2O$, and $HCO_3^-$ and selectively secretes $K^+$ and $H^+$ into the lumen to maintain ionic and acid-base balance.
That is every question in Excretory Products and their Elimination for this filter.
