The counter-current is the process that occurs in the excretory system. The limbs become the multiplier because of the active transport of the electrolytes that move out.

<h3>What is the loop of Henle?</h3>

The loop of Henle is the part of the excretory system and part of the nephron. It functions in minimizing the water loss in the excretion of urine. There are descending and ascending loops present.

The ascending loop is impermeable to water but permeable to the electrolytes, and hence the concentration of the sodium, potassium, and chloride ions are actively pumped. This makes the solution more concentrated in the ascending loop.

Therefore, the electrolyte concentration results in active transport.

Why are different units of measurement used for distances in space
AlexFokin [52]

Not all units of measurement are equal, but the value of each unit is used for its intended purpose, so we have different units of measurement for each problem.

What is the concentration, in m/v percent, of a solution prepared from 50 g NaCl and 2.5 L of solution?
Serjik [45]
When we convert the given mass in grams and volume in liters to m/v percent, we recall that m/v percent is expressed as grams/100 milliliters. In this case the expression becomes (50 grams/ 2500 L)*(0.1L/100ml), that is equal to 0.002 grams/ 100 mL. Hence the the concentration is equal to 0.2 m/v percent.
