Correct Answer is C

Explanation

A. Large intestine, excretion: The large intestine mainly absorbs water and forms feces; it does not have villi.

B. Pancreas, release of hormones: The pancreas releases insulin and glucagon but has no villi and is not directly involved in nutrient absorption.

C. Small intestine, absorption: Villi are fingerlike projections that line the small intestine to increase surface area for absorption of nutrients.

D. Gallbladder, production of bile: The liver produces bile; the gallbladder only stores it. Villi are not involved.

A. Reabsorption B. Filtration C. Storage D. Increase RBC production E. Secretion

Correct Answer is ["A","B","E"]

Explanation

A. Reabsorption: The nephron reabsorbs water, glucose, and electrolytes from the filtrate back into the blood.

B. Filtration: The glomerulus filters blood, initiating urine formation by removing waste, water, and solutes.

C. Storage: Urine storage occurs in the bladder, not the nephron.

D. Increase RBC production: While the kidneys release erythropoietin, which stimulates RBC production, this is not a nephron-specific function.

E. Secretion: The nephron actively secretes waste products like hydrogen ions and drugs into the tubule for excretion.
