-
through the proximal convoluted tubule
-
and then through the Loop of Henle,
-
and the distal convoluted tubule, and eventually the collecting duct,
-
and as we know from last time, several things can happen.
-
One is that molecules within this fluid can be reabsorbed,
-
and if they're reabsorbed they move out of the tubular system
-
and into-- back into blood.
-
That's why there are blood vessels surrounding
-
all the nephrons in the kidneys,
-
so that there's a blood flow that's ready to catch these molecules
-
as they're reabsorbed from the tubules.

We also mentioned that there are some special processes of secretion
