The correct Answer is:
To determine which option is correctly matched regarding excretory products and their elimination, we will analyze each of the four options provided. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Analyze Option 1: Glomerular Filtrate Serum with Proteins** - Glomerular filtration occurs in the kidneys, specifically in the Bowman's capsule, which contains a tuft of capillaries known as the glomerulus. - During ultrafiltration, substances are filtered from the blood into the Bowman's capsule. - Proteins are too large to pass through the basement membrane of the Bowman's capsule and, therefore, are not present in the glomerular filtrate. - **Conclusion**: This option is incorrect. 2. **Analyze Option 2: Glomerular Filtration Rate 125 ml per minute** - The glomerular filtration rate (GFR) is a measure of how much blood is filtered by the kidneys per minute. - The normal GFR is approximately 125 ml per minute, which translates to about 180 liters of filtrate produced per day. - **Conclusion**: This option is correct. 3. **Analyze Option 3: Reabsorption occurs in the collecting tubule** - Reabsorption is the process by which the kidneys reclaim water and solutes from the filtrate. - The major sites of reabsorption are the proximal convoluted tubule (PCT), distal convoluted tubule (DCT), and the loop of Henle. - While some reabsorption occurs in the collecting tubule, it is minimal compared to the other sites. - **Conclusion**: This option is incorrect. 4. **Analyze Option 4: Reabsorption of chloride is active absorption** - The reabsorption of chloride ions primarily occurs in the proximal convoluted tubule (PCT). - This process is mainly passive, relying on the electrochemical gradient rather than active transport mechanisms. - **Conclusion**: This option is incorrect. ### Final Conclusion: The only correctly matched option is **Option 2: Glomerular Filtration Rate 125 ml per minute**. ---
