____ takes filtrate and puts it back into the bloodstream
A
filtration
B
reabsorption
C
secretion
D
None of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Tubular reabsorption is the process that moves solutes and water out of the filtrate and back into your bloodstream. This process is known as reabsorption, because this is the second time they have been absorbed; the first time being when they were absorbed into the bloodstream from the digestive tract after a meal.

Detailed explanation-2: -Answer and Explanation: Reabsorption is when filtrate contents are reabsorbed into the blood and secretion is when substances move from the blood to the filtrate. Reabsorption occurs primarily in the proximal convoluted tubule, while secretion occurs primarily in the distal convoluted tubule.

Detailed explanation-3: -The Role of Aquaporins in the Kidneys The majority of water reabsorption that occurs in the nephron is facilitated by the AQPs. Most of the fluid that is filtered at the glomerulus is then reabsorbed in the proximal tubule and the descending limb of the loop of Henle.

Detailed explanation-4: -Reabsorption. Reabsorption takes place mainly in the proximal convoluted tubule of the nephron. Nearly all of the water, glucose, potassium, and amino acids lost during glomerular filtration reenter the blood from the renal tubules.
