Functions & Histology of The Proximal Convoluted Tubule [PCT]

The video tutorial explains the urinary system's role in waste elimination and blood pressure regulation. It details the non-specific filtration process in the glomerulus and the reabsorption of essential substances in the proximal convoluted tubule (PCT). The tutorial also covers tubular secretion, where waste products are removed from the blood. Finally, it provides a histological view of the proximal and distal tubules, highlighting their structural differences.
