Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Glucose is least dependent on the kidney for regulation of its plasma concentration as it is primarily regulated by insulin release from the pancreas and the uptake and utilization by tissues. Water, Na⁺, K⁺, and HPO₄²⁻ are more directly regulated by the kidney through processes such as reabsorption and excretion.
