What condition(s) must exist for a solute to be passively reabsorbed from the renal tubules?
A) The solute must be able to permeate the membrane of the tubule epithelial cells, and the solute must be in greater concentration in the plasma than tubule fluid.
B) The solute must be able to permeate the membrane of the tubule epithelial cells, and the solute must be in greater concentration in the tubule fluid than plasma.
C) The solute must be able to permeate the membrane of the capillary endothelial cells, and the solute must be in greater concentration in the tubule fluid than plasma.
D) The solute must be able to permeate the membrane of the capillary endothelial cells, and the solute must be in greater concentration in the plasma than tubule fluid.
E) The solute must be able to permeate the membrane of the tubule epithelial cells and capillary endothelial cells. Its concentration is irrelevant.
