The ion most likely to be reabsorbed after the reabsorption of sodium ions is:
A) potassium.
B) chloride.
C) phosphate.
D) both B and C.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Chloride ions often follow sodium ions through passive transport mechanisms due to electrical attraction, and phosphate reabsorption is also influenced by sodium transport indirectly. Thus, both chloride and phosphate ions are likely to be reabsorbed after sodium.
