Removal of proximal convoluted tubule from the nephron will result in
- A no change in quality and quantity of urine
- B no urine formation
- C more diluted urine
- D more concentrated urine.
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(C) more diluted urine
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
About \(65\%\) of the glomerular filtrate is normally reabsorbed in proximal convoluted tubule before reaching the loop of Henle. It absorbs glucose, amino acids, vitamins, hormones, \(Na, K, Cl\), phosphates, bicarbonates, water and urea etc. If it is removed, then more concentrated urine with high osmolarity will be produced.
