As the filtrate passes upward in the ascending limb of loop of Henle:
1. it gets diluted due to the reabsorption of water from medullary interstitium
2. it gets diluted due to the passage of electrolytes to medullary interstitium
3. it gets concentrated due to the reabsorption of electrolytes from medullary interstitium
4. it gets concentrated due to the passage of water to medullary interstitium
