Killer whales are marine mammals belonging to the family Delphinidae, formed by several species of dolphins, false killer whales and pilot whales.
Active transport is the key to the reabsorptive processes in the proximal tubule. Glucose and amino acids are reabsorbed across the apical membrane of the proximal tubule by sodium-coupled secondary active transport. Na + glucose transport is mediated by the low affinity, high capacity SGLUT2 transport protein.
Each segment of the tubule reabsorbs different substances from the filtrate as it passes through them. A second network of capillaries separate from the glomerulus, the peritubular capillaries, entwines the renal tubule to allow the reabsorbed materials to reenter the blood circulation.ifferent portions of the loop of Henle reabsorb sodium, potassium, chloride, magnesium, calcium, and water. The loop of Henle plays a significant role in the concentration and dilution of the URINE, and is the target of some types of diuretic medications.
