Explanation & Answer

Filtration, Reabsorption, and Secretion

Filtration: The first step, water and molecules soluble in water leave the blood and go into the kidney's glomerulus

Reabsorbtion: an appropriate amount of water and necessary ions and molecules for homeostasis are reabsorbed into the blood.

Secretion: Hydrogen ions, creatinine, and drugs are collected in the collection duct
