Identify the incorrect statement regarding proximal convoluted tubule:
1. It is lined by simple cuboidal brush bordered epithelium
2. It reabsorbs 70-80 % of electrolytes and water and nearly all nutrients
3. In juxta-medullary nephrons, it extends deep into the renal medulla
4. It secretes hydrogen ions, ammonia and reabsorbs bicarbonate ions to maintain the ionic and pH balance of the body fluids
