Answer:

False

Explanation:

The correct answer is false because Reabsorption of water and other filtered solutes like vitamins, sodium e.t.c. take place in the proximal convoluted tubules.

Reabsorption is when water and solutes in the PCT are removed and moved back into the blood and it's a process that take place through bulk transport.

The solutes and water are transported from the PCT to the interstitium and then move into peri-tubular capillaries and reabsorption in PCT is isosmotic i.e solutes have the same osmotic pressure.
