Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Final answer: Selective reabsorption of Glomerular filtrate takes place in Proximal Convoluted Tubules and Distal Convoluted Tubules.
Detailed explanation-2: -The proximal convoluted tubule avidly reabsorbs filtered glucose into the peritubular capillaries so that it is all reabsorbed by the end of the proximal tubule. The mechanism for glucose reabsorption was described in Chapter 7.4. The proximal tubule is the only site for glucose reabsorption.
Detailed explanation-3: -The majority of solute and water reabsorption occurs in the proximal convoluted tubule. Sodium ions, which are the most plentiful cation (positively charged ion) in the tubular fluid, participate in most solute reabsorption.
