Phospholipids (lipid bilayer)
Water and sodium ions are reabsorbed in the proximal tubule in a relationship that results in a decrease in tubular fluid volume that is isotonic to plasma.
<h3>What do you mean by Proximal tubule?</h3>
A Proximal tubule may be defined as the portion of the nephron that lies in between Bowman's capsule and the loop of Henle.
The major function of the proximal tubule is to reabsorption of sugar, sodium, chloride ions, and water from the glomerular filtrate. It decreases the volume of tubular fluid.
Therefore, water and sodium ions are reabsorbed in the proximal tubule in a relationship that results in a decrease in tubular fluid volume that is isotonic to plasma.

Answer:
Explanation:
Can you think of a solid that can flow?
You use one twice a day! Toothpaste is a solid that can flow. Is the asthenosphere made of toothpaste? Only if the
toothpaste is ultramafic in composition, and then it would only be able to flow if it were really, really hot. Still the
toothpaste analogy gives you a good image of how the asthenosphere might behave if you squeezed it!
Lithosphere
The lithosphere is composed of both the crust and the portion of the upper mantle that behaves as a brittle, rigid
solid. The lithosphere is the outermost mechanical layer, which behaves as a brittle, rigid solid. The lithosphere is
about 100 kilometers thick. How are crust and lithosphere different from each other?
