What are the 3 substances which are reabsorbed from the nephron in the blood?
Setler [38]

The main substance re-absorbed into the blood in the nephron are glucose, electrolytes (sodium, potassium, chloride)  and water.

Almost all the glucose is reabsorbed at the proximal tubule of the nephron. Sodium, potassium and chloride are reabsorbed  at the ascending loop of  Henle, and water is reabsorbed at the descending loop of Henle.

Other nutrients that are reabsorbed are  magnesium, phosphates, carboxylate, bicarbonate, amino acids, some urea, proteins and oligopeptides.

Reabsorption occurs in two steps namely active or passive extraction of sustances  from the fluid  in the tubules of the nephron, and into the interstitium , then transport of these substances from interstitium and into the bloodstream.

Brown eye-color alleles are dominant over blue eye-color alleles, which are recessive. jenna has brown eyes. her husband, bill,
Vinil7 [7]
Brown eye-color is dominant while the blue-eye color is recessive. Therefore, the homozygous for brown color is BB and the homozygous for brown color is bb. Thus, the heterozygous will be Bb (brown color). Since James has blue colored eyes  a child of Jenna (brown color) and bill (blue color) then it means Jenna is heterozygous (Bb). Jenna is described  as being a carrier of the allele for blue eyes.
