Which of the following is the least important influence on reabsorption of a substance in the nephron?
A) number of carriers.
B) lipid solubility.
C) molecule size relative to fenestrations.
D) molecular complexity

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Molecular complexity is the least important influence on reabsorption in the nephron because it is primarily determined by the presence of specific transporters and carriers, the lipid solubility of the molecule, and its size in relation to the fenestrations of the renal tubules. Molecular complexity may influence the binding or recognition of the substance by the transporters or carriers, but it is not as essential as the other factors listed.
