Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -First, the nephrons filter blood that runs through the capillary network in the glomerulus. Almost all solutes, except for proteins, are filtered out into the glomerulus by a process called glomerular filtration.
Detailed explanation-2: -Answer and Explanation: The active transport of solutes out of the blood and into the tubular fluid is called secretion.
Detailed explanation-3: -Most water (about 70%), salt (65%), and glucose (100%) are reabsorbed in the proximal convoluted region of the renal tubule. Water and salts are also reabsorbed in the distal tubule and collecting duct through the influence of hormones vasopressin (antidiuretic hormone) and aldosterone.
