Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Na⁺ refers to the sodium-glucose co-transporter (SGLT) in the renal tubules, which is responsible for the reabsorption of glucose in the kidneys. Glucose is reabsorbed along with sodium ions, and this process is regulated by the secretion of H⁺ ions. The other substances listed (urea, creatinine, uric acid) are not affected by H⁺ ion secretion.
