Glucose and amino acids are reabsorbed from the glomerular filtrate by the proximal convoluted tubule (Option d).
- Glomerular filtration is the mechanism by which the kidneys filter the waste products and other components from the blood into the glomerulus, which is required to maintain body homeostasis.
- Glomerular filtration is caused by the pressure gradient in the glomerulus, thereby an increase in blood pressure also increases the glomerular filtration rate.
- The most important components in the filtrate (such as amino acids and glucose) are reabsorbed by the first half of the proximal convoluted tubule.
In conclusion, glucose and amino acids are reabsorbed from the glomerular filtrate by the proximal convoluted tubule (Option d).
