Solution

The correct option is C Is absorbed into blood
About 180 litres (100%) of fluid is filtered out of blood every day by nephrons but an adult human excretes, on an average, 1 to 1.5 litres (1 %) of urine per day. The remaining 99% is absorbed into the blood to maintain constant homeostasis in the body.
So, the correct answer is 'Is absorbed into blood'.
