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.

Evgesh-ka [11]

Answer:

<em>The statement that is incorrect is :</em>

<em>Robert wanted to see if his theory was true that cigarette smoke will influence web-building in spiders.</em>

Explanation:

A theory can be described as a descriptive explanation of a phenomenon which is supported by valid experiments and careful examination of facts. As Robert, has not conducted any experiments nor has proved his study with reference to facts, hence it cannot be considered as a theory.

Robert wanted to see if his observation was true that cigarette smoke will influence web-building in spiders will be the correct statement that could be used.
