pantera1 [17]

Options are not provided in the question. The complete question is as following:

The reabsorption of glucose occurs primarily through the walls of the

A. glomerular capsule.

B. nephron loop.

C. proximal convoluted tubule.

D. distal convoluted tubule.

E. renal duct.

Answer:

C. proximal convoluted tubule.

Explanation:

Reabposrtion of glucose is supported by the nephron present in the kidney which mainatain body fluid homeostasis. It maintains extracellular body fluid volume stable  and also maintains the minerals and salts which are essential for body functioning. So, glucose reabsorption is a part of homeostasis.

The process of glucose reabsorption primarily starts through the walls of the  proximal convoluted tubule. proximal convoluted tubule are covered in microvillii and are extensive in length which increases the surface area for absorption. it also contain densly packed mitochndria which provide energy for efficient reabsorption. and then they are tranposrted to proximal straight tuble fo rfurther filteration.

Hence, the correct otpion is C.

Aplastic anemia is caused by the bone marrow failure. Bone marrow is the place that produces blood cells, so the decrease wouldn't be in the red blood cell only, but in other blood cells too. There shouldn't be any iron deficiency or decreases in the mean corpuscular volume
