Solution

The correct answer is D. Glucose.

Here's why:

A. Water: While a significant amount of water is reabsorbed by the nephrons, it's not completely reabsorbed. The amount of water reabsorbed can vary depending on the body's hydration status.

B. Sodium: Similar to water, sodium is also significantly reabsorbed in the nephrons, but not completely. The amount reabsorbed can vary based on dietary intake and the body's needs.

C. Urea: Urea is a waste product and while some of it may be reabsorbed, the goal of the nephrons is to excrete urea from the body, so it's not completely reabsorbed.

D. Glucose: Under normal physiological conditions, all of the glucose that is filtered by the nephrons is reabs
