Choose the mismatched part of nephron with its function.

Question

Choose the mismatched part of nephron with its function. (A) Bowman's capsule-Glomerular filtration (B) PCT-Reabsorption of Na +and K + (C) DCT-Reabsorption of glucose (D) Loop of Henle-Urine concentration

Tardigrade Admin · Accepted Answer

Option (c) contains the mismatched pair. It can be corrected as
Distal Convoluted Tubule

(D CT)

performs conditional reabsorption of

N a^{+}

and water.

D CT

is also capable of reabsorption of

H C O_{3}^{-}

and selective secretion of hydrogen and potassium ions and

N H_{3}

to maintain the

p H

and

N a - K

balance in blood. Rest matches are correct.
