Answer:

Aqua pores enhances obligatory water reabsorption.

Step-by-step explanation:

Water is only reabsorbed by osmosis.There are two types of water reabsorption 1)Obligatory water reabsorption is defined as " water is “obliged” to follow the solutes being reabsorbed". 2)Facultative water reabsorption – reabsorption of water in the late distal convoluted tubule and

collecting duct under the control of antidiuretic hormone (ADH)

Answer:

Aqua pores

Step-by-step explanation:

Aquaporin:

Aquaporins are also known as water channels which are an essential part of membrane pore proteins. These are responsible for water transportation across the cell membrane (in and out of the cell) and prevent the ions and other solutes. Aquaporins presence in the cell membrane increase the membrane permeability to water.
