Juxtamedulallry Nephrons 15% located very close to the cortex medulla junction, The loop of Henle of juxtamedullary nephrons are much longer than those of cortical nephrons and consist of a very long thin segment. This thin segment is primarily responsible for water absorption (water movement from the tubules back to the blood)

Blood flows into the afferent arteriole, then to glomerular capillaries where certain components of blood plasma are forced through the filtration membrane of the glomerular capillaries into the Bowman's (glomerular) capsule.

The filtrate consists of all the materials present in blood except for proteins (that are too large to pass through)
Tubular Reabsorption
2nd step. 99% of the filtrate is returned to the blood with in the peritubular capillaries

Glucose and amino acids to be reabsorbed into the blood but the reabsportion of water are adjusted to the bodies needs
Tubular Secretion
3rd - substances such as hydrogen, potassium etc move from the blood in the peritubular capillaries into the tubules, then excreted from the body in urine
If you have low blood pH what will happen
It will NOT reabsorb H+

secrete H+
If the blood pH is high it will
Bring in H+
or
reabsorb it back into the blood.
more H+
lower the pH (14)
less H+
higher the pH (0)
