#Unit 7. System Physiology – Animal

Paracellular reabsorption of cations (K+) causes slight positive charge (+8)of the tubular lumen relative to the interstitial fluid

TLS Online TPP Program

#Id: 5547

#Unit 7. System Physiology – Animal

Positive charge forces cations such as Mg++ and Ca++ to diffuse from the tubular lumen through the paracellular space and into the interstitial fluid
