Bowman’s capsule

|
Proximal convoluted tubule

Loop of Henle

Distal convoluted tubule

Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Reabsorption takes place in the ‘kidney tubule or nephron’. Different parts of the kidney tubule such as proximal & distal convoluted tubules, Henle’s loop, and collecting duct play a major role in reabsorption. Most of the reabsorption takes place in proximal convoluted tubules (PCT).
Detailed explanation-2: -Each nephron includes a filter, called the glomerulus, and a tubule. The nephrons work through a two-step process: the glomerulus filters your blood, and the tubule returns needed substances to your blood and removes wastes.
