ANS: D
An infant has fewer tubular cells, shorter tubule length, and smaller rates of tubular blood flow. An infant's renal tubular secretion capacity is subsequently less than an adult's, and the half-life of drugs cleared by tubular secretion is again increased. Tubular secretion reaches adult levels by about 7 months of age.
