Question

Glucose is actively reabsorbed in the proximal convoluted tubule.

• A. True
• B. False

Answer 1

The correct option is A True

Under normal physiological conditions, the kidney reabsorbs all of the filtered glucose. This occurs via the actions of sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2) in the early proximal tubule, which reabsorbs most of the filtered glucose load, and SGLT1 in the more distal regions of the tubule, which absorbs the remaining glucose. the above process is an active process [secondary active transport].

So, the correct answer is 'True'.
