Answer:

Proximal convoluted tubule

Explanation:

The major work of re-absorption is carried out in nephron by the proximal convoluted tubule (PCT). The PCT re-absorbs all the essential nutrients such as amino acid, potassium, glucose etc. and water driven by passive transfer based on concentration gradient. Along with gradient, pH of the urine also affects the re-absorption. Based on the pH of the urine (basic or acid), re-absorption of ionized acid increases or decreases.

Setler [38]

The net force on the quarterback when he is hit by two linebackers running eastwards is 255N.

Force is a vector quantity, we must recall that if two forces act in the same direction, we obtain the net force by adding the two forces together. If two forces act in opposite direction, we obtain the net force by subtracting the forces from each other.

Since the both linebackers are running East, the net force is obtained as; 105 N + 150 N = 255 N.
