In sufficient or excess supply of water, reabsorpfion of water from filtrate is :
Correct answer: C. Reduced
- A. Increased
- B. Maintained
- C. Reduced
- D. Stopped
Explanation
When sufficient or excess supply of water is available to our body, reabsorption from the glomemlar filtrate will be reduced and more and more water will be allowed to leave the body in the form of urine.

About Homeostasis
Homeostasis maintains a stable internal environment through the kidney and urinary system, thermoregulation and excretion. The kidney topics include filtration, selective reabsorption, urine formation and water balance, while thermoregulation involves sweating, vasodilation, vasoconstriction and hormonal control; excretion is different from egestion, which removes undigested food.
