true
Where does selective reabsorption take place?
PCT, Loop of Henle, DCT, Collecting Duct
Human urine consists of
excess water, urea, uric acid and excess mineral salts
Active transport of glucose, amino acids from the filtrate into the blood. (filtration/selective reabsorption/tubular excretion/reabsorption of water)
