Urine Formation: Tubular Reabsorption in DCT and Collecting Duct -

Tubular Reabsorption in DCT:

  • Active reabsorption of sodium ions occurs under the influence of aldosterone.
  • Chloride ions are reabsorbed under the influence of ADH.

Tubular Reabsorption in Collecting Duct:

  • Water is reabsorbed due to which the filtrate becomes highly concentrated. 
  • Collecting duct is majorly influenced by the ADH and is permeable to water.
  • Therefore, water is greatly reabsorbed here.
