2.72

2.72 Understand that water is reabsorbed into the blood from the collecting duct

During ultrafiltration, too much water is filtered. So the filtrate passes through the PCT to loop of Henle. When it reaches the collecting duct, water is removed from the filtrate. Water returned back to the blood vessels. Water has been selected and reabsorbed. Selected reabsorption of water occurs in the collecting duct.
