Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Glucose is normally filtered out of the blood by the glomerulus in the kidney, but it is usually reabsorbed by the renal tubule cells back into the bloodstream. This prevents glucose from being excreted in the urine. Therefore, the correct answer is C, which states that glucose is reabsorbed by renal tubule cells.
