a. True The rate of filtration is directly proportional to the plasma concentration.
b. False Line B represents the rate of excretion of glucose; line C represents glucose reabsorbed; at low glucose concentrations absorption increases with the concentration and is complete; above these levels, EC, the maximal amount of glucose is absorbed and the rest excreted.
c. True Notice that glucose excretion gradually builds up at the same time due to loss of glucose by the less effective nephrons.
d. True The diagram shows features which are typical of a transport system with a limited maximal reabsorbing capacity.
e. False Though H is lowered, the reduction of Tm (glucose) results in glucose excretion at lower plasma glucose levels so the line B shifts to the left.
