Summary Introduction

To review:

Diagrammatic representation of reabsorption of solutes through the paracellular and transcellular routes. Also, label basolateral and apical membrane and determine sodium-potassium (Na⁺-K⁺ ATPases or adenosine triphosphatases) pump's location.

Introduction:

Any substance that is reabsorbed from tubular fluid present in lumen enters a peritubular capillary by two routes. The routes include movement between  neighboring tubule cells or via an individual tubule cell.
