Solution

The correct option is B

Glucose, Amino acids, Salts


Glucose, amino acids, salts and high amount of water are reabsorbed in the nephron during the second step of urine formation, i.e., the selective reabsorption. These essential substances were filtered out from the blood in the first step called glomerular filtration and are reabsorbed as they are vital for the functioning of our body.
