Which of the following statements is TRUE about the tubules of the nephron and/or collecting ducts? Water, but not sodium, is removed from the filtrate by the descending loop of Henle. The ascending loop of Henle reabsorbs both water and sodium from the filtrate. ADH causes aquaporin channels to be inserted into the collection ducts of the kidney. Collecting ducts are connected to more than one nephron.
