GENERAL HISTOLOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -Liquid and solutes of the blood must pass through multiple layers to move from the glomerular capillaries into Bowman’s space to ultimately become filtrate within the nephron’s lumen. Following the GBM, filtrate must pass through the epithelial layer of Bowman’s capsule, which is composed of podocytes.

Detailed explanation-2: -Tubular reabsorption is the movement of substances into the blood from the filtrate.

Detailed explanation-3: -Blood is filtered at the glomerulus (Figure 8.2(C)). The filtrate travels through a long tubule composed of various segments with highly specialized functions and different shapes (lumen diameter and cellular morphology) and it arrives at the bladder as concentrated urine.

Detailed explanation-4: -Tubular reabsorption is the process that moves solutes and water out of the filtrate and back into your bloodstream. This process is known as reabsorption, because this is the second time they have been absorbed; the first time being when they were absorbed into the bloodstream from the digestive tract after a meal.
