Expert Answer:
Tubular secretion: Potassium ions and certain substances like penicillin are passed into the urine through the distal convoluted tubule. The cells of the walls of DCT are involved in bringing potassium ions and other substances back in the renal tubule. This process is known as tubular secretion.
