Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -The proximal tubule which is the portion of the duct system of the nephron of the kidney leads from Bowman’s capsule to the loop of Henle.
Detailed explanation-2: -Na+/H+ antiporter is found on the apical surface of PCT cells. It is an antiporter and therefore transports ions across the cell membrane in opposite directions. In this case, the Na+ ions move into the tubular cells, while the H+ is expelled into the lumen.
