Honey's antioxidant and antibacterial properties give it healing qualities. When honey is applied to a burn, it keeps the wound moist, allowing for quick healing and minimal scarring. Use honey to treat first-degree burns and small second-degree burns rapidly and naturally.
Kidney Reabsorption. Once inside the lumen of the nephron, small molecules, such as ions, glucose and amino acids, get reabsorbed from the filtrate: 1  Specialized proteins called transporters are located on the membranes of the various cells of the nephron.2  These transporters grab the small molecules from the filtrate as it flows by them.y the end of the stream, most of the fish have been caught. This is what happens as the filtrate travels through the nephron. Two major factors affect the reabsorption process: 1  Concentration of small molecules in the filtrate-the higher the concentration, the more molecules can be reabsorbed.
Kidney Structure and the Nephron Scott Gilbert, MD Tufts University School of Medicine Page 9 1. Many small molecules (i.e. urea) are reabsorbed in the proximal tubule by solvent drag as water iso-osmotically follows Na + reabsorption across trans-cellular and para-cellular routes. 2.tructure of the Kidney The structure of the kidney, and the nephron in particular, is uniquely designed to accomplish the functions outlined above. Sodium, water, electrolyte, and H + ion handling, as well as hormone production, are performed by specific tubular segments that are suited to each task.
