Your question is a little ambiguous. I think you are trying to compare and contrast the secretion and reabsorption of various molecules (water, protein, ions, etc.) by the different parts of the tubular nephrons within the human kidney. Rather than trying to summarize this, I will direct you to an excellent site the summarizes these processes and includes nice diagrams indicating the locations of the various tubular loops: http://www.emc.maricopa.edu/faculty/farabee/BIOBK/BioBookEXCRET.html The diagrams are used with permission from the college-level biology book by Purvis, probably available at any local college library. |

The answer you want is that secretion is transfer of "stuff" from the body into the urine side of the lumen. Reabsorption is when the body takes back the "stuff" that it needs from the urine side of the lumen and puts it into blood. |
