Q

What are the substance re-absorbed in selective reabsorption?

A

glucose, amino acids, salts and a major amount of water.

17
Q

. What are the factors based on which the amount of water is reabsorbed?

A
  1. How much excess water there is in the body

2. How much waste there is to be excreted?

18
Q

What is the use of artificial kidney?

A

Artificial kidney is a device to remove nitrogenous waste products from the blood through dialysis

19
