    1. A0 mmol/day
    2. B10-20 mmol/day
    3. C~720 mmol/day
    4. D100-200 mmol/day
  2. 2The majority of tubular reabsorption occurs in what part of the nephron?Image for question 2
    1. AProximal Convoluted Tubule
    2. BBowman's Capsule
    3. CLoop of Henle
    4. DDistal Convoluted Tubule
  3. 3In the event of elevated glomerular filtration rate (GFR), the proportion of sodium reabsorbed in the proximal tubule:
    1. AIncreases
    2. BDecreases
    3. CRemains constant
    4. DSodium is not reabsorbed in the proximal tubule
