Neural control of GFR is mediated by Sympathetic neurons that innervate alpha receptors on vascular smooth muscle causing Vasoconstriction.

<h3>How is GFR regulated?</h3>
  • The sympathetic division of the nervous system regulates the GFR or Glomerular Filtration Rate.
  • GFR is the sum total of filtration rates of all the working nephrons in the kidney.
  • Sympathetic division comes into action when the mean arterial pressure is very low (below 80mmHg).
  • In response to low blood pressure, the medulla releases norepinephrine through sympathetic nerves.
  • Norepinephrine leads to activation of alpha receptors on arteries which cause vasoconstriction.
  • Alpha receptors are more abundant on afferent arterioles.
  • This leads to vasoconstriction (narrowing) of arteries supplying to the glomerulus.
  • This decreases blood flow to glomerulus, leading to decrease in GFR.

What would be the strand of complementary DNA produced by the strand of DNA shown below? ATG CGA
Nadusha1986 [10]

A strand of DNA having base sequence as ATG CGA. The complementary strand of DNA will be produced with base sequence as TAC GCT. In the double strand DNA nitrogenous bases paired in a specific manner, A (Adenine) always pair with T (Thymine) with double hydrogen bond or vice-versa and C (Cytosine) pair with G (guanine) with triple hydrogen bond or vice-versa.

Explain why is important for hydrogen bonds to be weak bonds instead of very strong bonds.
lesantik [10]

Hydrogen bonds are classified as weak because they are formed fast, but they also break easily under normal biological conditions.


Weak bonds can be easily broken, but this is extremely important because they are in bold in biological systems. For example, they help to decide and stabilize the shapes of water molecules.
