In order for the kidney tubules to continue to secrete hydrogen ions (H+) into the tubular filtrate, mechanisms must exist that allow the secreted hydrogen ions to be taken up (buffered) by components in the tubular filtrate.
 
  One such mechanism is: A. Secretion of ammonia (NH3) by tubular epithelial cells that combines with the hydrogen ions to form ammonium ions (NH4+)

  C. Secretion of phosphate ions into the tubular filtrate by the tubular epithelial cells
  D. Excretion of urea into the tubular filtrate
