A blog covering and explaining the Edexcel IGCSE Biology specification for the 2016 summer exams. If you are doing just double science, you do not need to learn the stuff for paper two, if you are doing triple you will need to learn all (GOOD LUCK!) I have separated the papers to make files easier to find. Hope it helps :)

In the beginning of the ultrafiltration/reabsorption process water, urea, salts and glucose are 'squeezed' our of the blood due to high pressure. However, during reabsorption all of the glucose (and a little bit of water and salts) is reabsorbed. Everything that remains in the glomerulus filtrate (water, urea and salts) is combined to form urine.
