Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -The reabsorption of filtered molecules, i.e. H+ Na+, K+, ions from the glomerular filtrate in the tubules to the blood is called selective reabsorption. About 85% of the 180L of filtrate formed per day is reabsorbed by this process.
Detailed explanation-2: -Selective reabsorption is the process whereby certain molecules (e.g. ions, glucose and amino acids), after being filtered out of the capillaries along with nitrogenous waste products (i.e. urea) and water in the glomerulus, are reabsorbed from the filtrate as they pass through the nephron.
