Descending limb of loop of Henle

It helps to maintain the concentration of urine. It is highly permeable to water thus water is readily reabsorbed from the descending limb by osmosis. It is impermeable to sodium and chloride ions.

<h3>What is a Tubule system ?</h3>

The transverse tubular system is a network of interconnecting rings, each of which surrounds a myofibril

  • The nephron uses four mechanisms to convert blood into urine: filtration, reabsorption, secretion, and excretion. These apply to numerous substances

  • The distal convoluted tubule (DCT) and collecting duct (CD) are the final two segments of the kidney nephron. They have an important role in the absorption of many ions, and in water reabsorption.

Why do iguanas have spikes
miskamm [114]

Iguanas have spines along their backs to help protect them from predators. They also have a bunch of extra skin below their necks called a dewlap. This dewlap helps them to regulate their temperature, which is helpful as they are cold-blooded and their bodies don't control their body temperature automatically.

Which tissue type is responsible for propelling food along the digestive tract?
elixir [45]

Smooth muscle is the type of muscle tissue responsible for propelling food along the digestive tract.

Smooth muscle is a type of muscle tissue that can be found in the walls of hollow organs of the body such as the digestive system, urinary tracts, tubes such as blood vessels and reproductive system. Smooth muscles contracts involuntarily and allows the walls of organs to move. The layer of smooth muscle present in the digestive system helps to break down food and propel it along the tract. Food substances and liquid moves from one organ to the next through the muscle action.
