Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Over 70% the filtrate is reabsorbed here. In addition, many important solutes (glucose, amino acids, bicarbonate) are actively transported out of the proximal tubule such that their concentrations are normally extremely low in the remaining fluid.
Detailed explanation-2: -The glucose filtered in the glomerular filtrate is reabsorbed by the glucose transporter. Almost all glucose is reabsorbed from the glomerular filtrate, as there is no glucose in the urine.
