Vedclass · Answer

(B) $1$. In humans,approximately $25-30 \, gm$ of urea is excreted per day,so statement $A$ is correct.
$2$. The renal cortex extends in between the renal pyramids as renal columns called Columns of Bertini. Therefore,the statement that they are extensions of medulla into the cortex is incorrect; they are extensions of the cortex into the medulla.
$3$. The Proximal Convoluted Tubule $(PCT)$ is the major site of reabsorption,where $70-80 \%$ of electrolytes and water are reabsorbed,so statement $C$ is correct.
$4$. The Glomerular Filtration Rate $(GFR)$ in a healthy individual is approximately $125 \, mL/min$,which amounts to $180 \, L$ per day,so statement $D$ is correct.
Thus,statement $B$ is the incorrect statement.
