What happens to the glucose which enters the nephron tubule alongwith the filtrate?

Answer» When\xa0glucose enters nephron along with filtrate, it goes down the renal tubule by the action of cilia. The tubular cells absorb\xa0glucose, amino acids, salts, etc. These are then passed into the capillary blood cells using the process of diffusion.\xa0Renal\xa0glucose\xa0reabsorption\xa0is\xa0the part of\xa0kidney\xa0(renal) physiology that deals with the retrieval of filtered\xa0glucose, preventing it from disappearing from the body through the urine. ... Once\xa0in\xa0the tubule wall, the\xa0glucose\xa0and amino acids diffuse directly\xa0into\xa0the\xa0blood\xa0capillaries along a concentration gradient.
