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.
Reabsorption. Reabsorption is the movement of water and solutes from the tubule back into the plasma. Reabsorption of water and specific solutes occurs to varying degrees over the entire length of the renal tubule. Bulk reabsorption, which is not under hormonal control, occurs largely in the proximal tubule.iltration is the mass movement of water and solutes from plasma to the renal tubule that occurs in the renal corpuscle. About 20% of the plasma volume passing through the glomerulus at any given time is filtered.
