The diagram shows a human nephron with its main parts labelled. List the structures in the order that filtrate passes through them, and indicate which segment is primarily responsible for the reabsorption of glucose.
Answer Options
A.
Glomerulus → Bowman's capsule → Loop of Henle (descending) → Proximal convoluted tubule → Ascending limb of Loop of Henle → Distal convoluted tubule → Collecting duct; glucose reabsorption occurs in the ascending limb of Loop of Henle
B.
Glomerulus → Bowman's capsule → Proximal convoluted tubule → Ascending limb of Loop of Henle → Descending limb of Loop of Henle → Distal convoluted tubule → Collecting duct; glucose reabsorption occurs in the distal convoluted tubule
Correct Answer
C.
Glomerulus → Bowman's capsule → Proximal convoluted tubule → Descending limb of Loop of Henle → Ascending limb of Loop of Henle → Distal convoluted tubule → Collecting duct; glucose reabsorption occurs in the proximal convoluted tubule
D.
Glomerulus → Bowman's capsule → Proximal convoluted tubule → Descending limb of Loop of Henle → Ascending limb of Loop of Henle → Collecting duct → Distal convoluted tubule; glucose reabsorption occurs in the proximal convoluted tubule
Correct Answer
C
Correct Option:
Glomerulus → Bowman's capsule → Proximal convoluted tubule → Descending limb of Loop of Henle → Ascending limb of Loop of Henle → Distal convoluted tubule → Collecting duct; glucose reabsorption occurs in the proximal convoluted tubule
