Reabsorption of filtered glucose from the filtrate into the cells of the proximal tubule is by:
A) secondary active transport.
B) diffusion.
C) antiport.
D) facilitated diffusion.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Glucose reabsorption in the proximal tubule occurs via secondary active transport, specifically through sodium-glucose transport proteins (SGLTs), which use the sodium gradient to transport glucose against its concentration gradient.
