| Question | Answer | Link |
| The proximal tubule can be subdivided into two parts. What are these parts called? |
|
Link |
| To which ion is most transport in the proximal tubule linked? |
Sodium |
Link |
| Which transporter found in the basolateral membrane is essential to maintain low intracellular sodium levels? |
Sodium/potassium ATPase |
Link |
| Why does the concentration of the tubular fluid remain constant along the tubule despite the reabsorption of ions such as sodium? |
Water passively follows the reabsorbed sodium so the concentration remains fairly similar but the volume is reduced |
