Answer:

Nephrotic syndrome (also called nephrosis) happens when your kidneys start losing large amounts of protein in your urine. As your kidneys get worse, extra fluids and salt build up in your body. This causes you to have swelling (edema), high blood pressure and higher levels of cholesterol.

Describe the flow of blood from the umbilical vein to the descending aorta in the developing fetus.
n200080 [17]

Oxygen and nutrients from the mother's blood are transferred across the placenta to the fetus through the umbilical cord. This enriched blood flows through the umbilical vein toward the baby's liver. There it moves through a shunt called the ductus venosus. This allows some of the blood to go to the liver.

A small amount of the blood continues on to the lungs. Most of this blood is shunted through the ductus arteriosus to the descending aorta. This blood then enters the umbilical arteries and flows into the placenta. The oxygen rich blood then returns to the fetus via the third vessel in the umbilical cord (umbilical vein). The oxygen rich blood that enters the fetus passes through the fetal liver and enters the right side of the heart.

List the three principal hormones that regulate glucose metabolism. Explain the effects these molecules have on carbohydrate met
drek231 [11]

Answer:

The three hormones are insulin, glucagon, and GIP and GLP-1.

Explanation:

After the ingestion of carbohydrates, insulin increases in the blood generating peaks in blood glucose, therefore the hormone that will increase is insulin to lower blood glucose, promoting the entry of this monosaccharide into the cells.

Different from the moments when the person enters into physical activity, and blood glucose is low, therefore glucagon is activated and seeks to remove the energy reserves from the interior of the cell.

raketka [301]

Answer:

Explanation:

From the question, the total population = 171 i.e (80+71+21)

Genetic frequency therefore; BB = 71/171 = 0.42

Bb = 80/171 = 0.47

bb = 20/171 = 0.12

Allele frequency therefore;

Allele B = 0.42+(0.50×0.47) = 0.66

Allele b = (0.50×0.47)+0.12 = 0.36

Note all values were rounded up to two significant figures
