In the condition diabetes mellitus, why does glucose appear in the urine? Group of answer choices The plasma concentration of glucose becomes so high that it diffuses from peritubular capillaries into the proximal tubule, down its concentration gradient. The filtered load of glucose becomes greater than the tubular maximum for its reabsorption. Without the hormone insulin, glucose cannot enter proximal tubule epithelial cells. The rate of tubular secretion of glucose becomes greater than the sum of glucose filtration and reabsorption.

Dissection

Dissection is the process of cutting up the tissue of a dead or live animal or plant, to do anatomical studies and surgical treatments. The purpose of dissection is to learn more about the overall structure of organs and organ systems and thereby understand the physiology of the organism.
