Collecting duct
responsible for size-selective filtration of the blood
responsible for active transport and reabsorption of ions and
nutrients as well as the reabsorption of water
may or may not reabsorb sodium ions depending on the
presence or absence of the hormone aldosterone.
establishes a strong osmotic gradient allowing the
reabsorption of water, sodium ions, and chloride ions.
regulates reabsorption of water in response to the presence of
ADH & secretes urea into the interstitial fluid to maintain the
osmotic gradient of the medulla.

Choose of the options: 1. reabsorption of water is always controlled by the amount of ADH 2.Some regions such as the descending loop of Henle and Proximal convoluted tubule absorb water passively without ADH regulation. 3.The concentration of interstitial fluid around the nephron does not affect passive water reabsorption. 4. In the distal convoluted tubule, water must be actively transported back into the blood stream to be reabsorbed.arrow_forward
