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.

Answer: Option 4.
The fresh water is hypotonic and the salt solution is Hypertonic.
Explanation:
Hypotonic solution is a solution that have little dissolved solutes i.e low osmotic pressure compare to other solution. When a cell is put in hypotonic solution, it take in water and the cell swell up and it does not burst due to it's cell wall thereby becoming turgid or hard.
Hypertonic solution is the solution where the concentration of solute is higher outside the cell than inside the cell. Example is saline water.when a cell is placed in Hypertonic solution it will shrinks because it losses water.
Answer:
Explanation: The two finches eat different kinds of food. The woodpecker finch eats insects and the large ground finch eats seeds. They do not compete for the same resources.

Answer:
The basic difference between SEM and TEM is that TEM generates an image with the assistance of radiation that goes through the specimen, while the images generated by the SEM take place with the assistance of electrons getting released from the surface of the specimen.
SEM is primarily used to examine the composition of the surface, with the help of SEM one can study the microbes present in the ecological niche like in the lining of the gut and human skin. Due to its great depth, it is considered the electron microscope analog of a stereo light microscope. It helps in providing complete images of the cells present on the surface, which are not easy to get with the help of TEM. Due to its enhanced functionality, it can also be used for size determination and particle counting, and also for process control.
