<P> Selective reabsorption is the process whereby certain molecules ( e.g. ions , glucose and amino acids ) , after being filtered out of the capillaries along with nitrogenous waste products ( i.e. urea ) and water in the glomerulus , are reabsorbed from the filtrate as they pass through the nephron . Selective reabsorbtion occurs in the PCT ( proximal convoluted tubule ) . The PCT is highly permeable meaning it is easy for molecules to diffuse through it . </P>
