Which of the following statements is/are true (1) Urine is hypertonic in distal convoluted tubule (2) When the urine passes into collecting tubule, it becomes hypotonic (3) Urine is isotonic in proximal convoluted tubule (4) Urine becomes more and more hypotonic as it passes through Henle's loop

Assertion. In descending loop of Henele, urine is hypertonic while in ascending loop urine is hypotonic. Reason. Descending loop is impermeable to Na^(+) while ascending loop is impermeable to water

Filtrate is hypotonic in proximal tubule.

Assertion : In the descending limb of loop of Henle , the urine is hypertonic , while in ascending limb of loop of Henle , the urine is Hypotonic . Reason : Descending limb is impermeable to Na' while ascending limb is impermeable to H_(2)O

Consider the following four statements (i).(iv) and select the option that correctly identifies the true (T) and false (F) ones. (i). Micturition is carried out by a reflex. (ii). ADH helps in water elimination making the urine hypotonic. (iii). Protein-free fluid is filtered from blood plasma into the bowman's capsule. (iv). Glucose is actively reabsorbed in the proximal convoluted tubule.

Mammals can eliminate hypotonic urine and hypertonic urine according to body needs. Explain.
