What is primarily absorbed in the Distal convoluted tubule?

Protein
Ca
Sugar
Vitamins

The correct answer is: Ca

The Distal convoluted tubule is responsible for the reabsorption of minerals such as calcium, which is essential for maintaining proper electrolyte balance in the body. Protein, sugar, and vitamins are not primarily absorbed in the distal convoluted tubule, as they are absorbed in other areas of the kidney or digestive system.
