Calcium is one substance that is secreted elsewhere but not in the proximal convoluted tubule.

<h3>Renal reabsorption and secretion</h3>

Renal reabsorption is defined as the movement of water and specific solutes from the renal tubule back into the plasma.

Renal secretion is defined as the process by which waste ions and hydrogen ions pass from the renal capillaries into the renal tubule to be excreted into the urine.

At the proximal convoluted tubule, calcium is reabsorbed but not secreted. Therefore, Calcium is one substance that is secreted elsewhere but not in the proximal convoluted tubule.

Gelneren [198K]

Answer:

It will result /lead to side effect that could be fatal and life threatening since its inactivation time is longer thus the effect of the large dose will be more pronounced and long lasting.

Explanation:

An hormone agonist is a compound/molecule that can bind to the hormone specific receptor leading to the activation of the endocrine gland, the biosynthesis of secreted hormone and the eliciting the physiological effects of such hormone. Androgenic anabolic efficacy  of steroids is usually goverened by their receptor binding andspecificity and their biotransformation from active to inactive form. Possible  side effect include elevated blood pressure, voice deepening, decease libido, early myocardial infarction and many more

Which mineral would be found in greatest concentration in the plasma of the marathon runners?
andre [41]
The right answer is E. Sodium  (with 140mmol/L)

Sodium is the most important element in the blood and extracellular liquids of the body.The needs of an adult subject are of the order of 1 to 2 g of sodium per day. The normal diet is much richer than our actual needs, about 4g, so it can largely compensate for the needs of an athlete or a runner.
Losses are majoritarly by feces and sweat. The kidney is able to reabsorb almost all the sodium that is filtered: urinary losses can be tiny.
