    Correct

    • Which portion of the renal tubule absorbs amino acids and glucose?

      Your Answer: Proximal convoluted tubule

      Explanation:

      In relation to the morphology of the kidney as a whole, the convoluted segments of the proximal tubules are confined entirely to the renal cortex. Glucose, amino acids, inorganic phosphate and some other solutes are reabsorbed via secondary active transport in the proximal renal tubule through co-transport channels driven by the sodium gradient.

  • Question 2 - What is the normal glomerular filtration rate? ...

    Correct

    • What is the normal glomerular filtration rate?

      Your Answer: 125 mL/min

      Explanation:

      The normal glomerular filtration rate (GFR) in humans is 125 mL/min. After the age of 40, GFR decreases progressively by about 0.4–1.2 mL/min per year.
