Water diffuses from the lumen into the interstitial space during the reabsorption of water in the proximal convoluted tubule due to an increase in the interstitium's osmolarity.

Reabsorption is the process by which water and solutes from the PCT are injected into the blood. From the  proximal convoluted tubule, the solutes and water go to the interstitium before entering the peritubular capillaries. The majority of the solutes and 99 percent of the water filtered by the nephron must be reabsorbed; all of these chemicals were "absorbed" in the digestive tract. The peritubular and vasa recta capillaries return reabsorbed fluids and chemicals to the circulation.

According to this dichotomous key, any catfish must be leathery, that is, without scales. They have a flattened body, as in most fish with benthic habits, that is, they live at the bottom of the waters. Coloration varies from bluish gray to yellow. It can reach 1 meter in length and weigh about 5 kilos.

<h3>What is catfish?</h3>

Catfish and catfish are common designations given to fish of the order Siluriformes in most of South America.About 2,200 species of these fish are known, classified into almost 40 families (only two, Ariidae and Plotosidae, have marine species). They are found almost all over the world, but more than half of the known species are native to South America.

With this information, we can conclude that the catfish (Ictaluruspunctatus) is a representative fish of the order Siluriformes, family Ictaluridae, characterized by not having scales.
