-selective: the molecules is selected (glucose)
-reabsorption: go from the glomerula filtrate and it will go back into the blood, removing the molecule to the blood but put it back
-filtration occurs in the bowmans capsule- containing glucose, water salt and urea
-water is removed back into the bloof in the collecting duct
- at the end of the nephron the urine is coming out,
urine does not contain glucose,
- if test urine for glucose and receive a positive test it means that have a condition called diabetes
-[normally no glucose in urine]
-However in the start there is glucose in the fluid, this is because in the proximal convoluted tubule (first section) glucose is removed and is taken back into blood, glucose is selectively reabsorbed into the blood in the proximal convoluted tubule.
-proximal= first, convoluted= twisted, tubule=tube
