Reabsorption of filtered glucose from the lumen in the pct is largely by means of: secondary active cotransport.

Nephron is the functional unit of the kidney associated with removing waste products from the blood. It achieves the function by performing filtration which results in formation of urine. A nephron is divided into two parts namely renal corpuscle and renal tubule. Renal corpuscle is associated with filtration and renal tubule mainly performs reabsorption.

Renal tubules are further divided into Proximal Convoluted Tubule (PCT), loop of Henle, Distal Convoluted Tubule (DCT) and collecting duct. PCT and DCT are mainly linked with reabsorption and secretion respectively. Reabsorption in PCT occurs via cotransport. Here, glucose is reabsorbed along with sodium ions via SGLT2 cotransporter. Specifically, the reabsorption method is termed as sodium-coupled secondary active transport.

Explanation:

This is because in complete metamorphosis, frog develop from egg to adults. Metamorphosis refers to change of shape and growth in different stages of animals life cycle.

Frog mate in the rainy season.

There are four stages of frog metamorphosis and they are;

1 Egg : the female mate with the male and the male fertilizes the egg. The female releases the fertilized egg inside water , they egg are jelly like or cover with jelly covering.

2. Tadpole: the egg then hatched into tadpoles. The tadpoles live in water, it does not have lungs and limbs. It move like fish and uses gills to breathe. At this stage it starts developing hind limbs and later lungs. It has long tail

3. Froglet : At this stage, the lungs and the front legs develop. It floats above the water to breathe. The tail become shorter and it uses nutrients stored in the tail to feed or survive.

4. Adult : this is the final stage, the young frog leave water and start live on land, it's tail disappear completely and it's start feeding on insects.
