Structures Nephron Re Absorb Water Proximal Tubule, Descending Limb Loop

The proximal tubule, descending limb of the loop of Henle, distal tubule, and collecting duct are the four nephron structures capable of water reabsorption.

This card lists the four structures in the nephron that can reabsorb water: proximal tubule, descending limb of loop of Henle, distal tubule, and collecting duct.
