NEET BIOLOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -It is very specific and must have an appropriately shaped receptor for the substance to be transported. An example would be the active transport of Na+ out of a cell and K+ into a cell by the Na+/K+ pump. Both ions are moved in opposite directions from a lower to a higher concentration.

Detailed explanation-2: -During filtration, blood enters the afferent arteriole and flows into the glomerulus where filterable blood components, such as water and nitrogenous waste, will move towards the inside of the glomerulus, and nonfilterable components, such as cells and serum albumins, will exit via the efferent arteriole.

Detailed explanation-3: -The filtrate flows from the proximal tubule and into the Loop of Henle. The loop of Henle concentrates the filtrate, by removing more water from it, and passes it to the distal tubule. From the distal tubule it travels to the collecting duct-now called urine.

Detailed explanation-4: -Answer and Explanation: The term for the active transport of substances from blood into the filtrate is secretion.

Detailed explanation-5: -They move in the direction from the blood stream into the tubules, which is in the reverse direction of reabsorption. These substances are K+ ions, H+ ions, NH4+ ions, creatinine, urea, some hormones, and some drugs.
