If there is increased load of NaCl and water, what wil happen in Px CT

1) There wil be an increase in NaCl and water reabsorption.

--- Content provided by​ FirstRanker.com ---


2) There wil be a decrease in NaCl and water reabsorption.

3) There wil be an increase in NaCl but water reabsorption wil decrease
4) There wil not be any change
