As tubular fluid flows through the nephron, fluid from the proximal convoluted tubule flows directly into the

A) distal convoluted tubule.
B) glomerular capsule.
C) nephron loop.
D) glomerulus.
E) minor calyx.

Nephron Loop

A U-shaped part of the nephron in the kidney that plays a crucial role in concentrating urine and reabsorbing water and salts.

Proximal Convoluted Tubule

A section of the nephron in the kidney responsible for the reabsorption of water, ions, and nutrients from the urine.

Distal Convoluted Tubule

A portion of the kidney nephron that functions in the selective reabsorption and secretion of ions and molecules.
