Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Final answer: Selective reabsorption of Glomerular filtrate takes place in Proximal Convoluted Tubules and Distal Convoluted Tubules.
Detailed explanation-2: -While the PCT absorbs 70-80% of the water, the remaining 15-20% is reabsorbed in the DCT. DCT reabsorption with the help of the hormone aldosterone maintains sodium and water levels.
Detailed explanation-3: -Selective reabsorption occurs because during ultrafiltration, important components of the blood are filtered out and they need to be reabsorbed into the body.
