Which of the following is true about tubular reabsorption?

Biology
1 answer:
zloy xaker [14]2 years ago
5 0

Answer: D (It involves carrier-mediated transport).

Explanation:

Tubular reabsorption transports nutrients back into the blood. Tubular reabsorption of nutrients such as sodium, glucose, lactate amino acids, and other organic substances occurs via carrier membrane proteins to the proximal tubule.

Most of the substances that are reabsorbed via the proximal tubule require the use of carrier membrane proteins, for facilitated diffusion, active transport and secondary active transport.

Example of secondary active transport is the sodium-dependent glucose cotranspoter.

nydimaria [60]
Question : T<span>he humpback whale can be seen off the coast of Alaska during the summer months, but is found as far south as California and Hawaii during the winter. Why would the humpback whale most likely spend the summer months off the coast of Alaska?

Answer : The humpback whale likes being in the cold like all other fishes.
The humpback whale is usually found around the coast of Alaska because it is a little colder over there. Then in winter it is found around Hawaii and California because the pacific ocean cools down and is not so hot anymore!
