Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Glomerular filtration refers to the movement of substances from the glomerular capillary blood into the tubular lumen.

Answer: C
 Renal function includes the filtration, reabsorption, and secretion of substances. Everything that is filtered or secreted and not subsequently reabsorbed is considered to be excreted in the urine.

Answer: D
 Tubular reabsorption refers to the movement of substances from the tubular lumen into the peritubular capillary blood. This is an important part of renal function as it allows for the reclamation of valuable substances, such as glucose and amino acids, from the filtrate.
