-
Human urine is usually acidic because:
-
- excreted plasma proteins are acidic
- potassium and sodium exchange generates acidity
- hydrogen ions are actively secreted into the filtrate.
- the sodium transporter exchanges one hydrogen ion for each sodium ion, in peritubular capillaries.
Correct Option: C
Urine has acidic nature because hydrogen ions(H+) are components of an acid which are secreted into the filtrate.
