Answer:
The correct option is BLOOD CALCIUM LEVEL.
Explanation:
The options attached to this question are given below:
A. Filtration membrane integrity
B. Systemic blood pressure
C. Blood calcium level
D. Renal artery/arteriole diameters
Kidney is an excretory organ, which functions by filtering waste products out of the blood. The rate at which the kidneys filter the blood depend on some factors; such factors include: water intake, systemic blood pressure, vasoconstriction, dehydration, filtration membrane integrity etc.
Blood calcium level does not have any effect on the rate at which the kidneys filter the blood.
Answer:
Nerve cells release chemical signals into synapses between them (short distance). They also transverse their lengths with an electrical signal that can result in signal travel along a series of cells (long distance).
Explanation:
Nerve cells release neurotransmitters in the synaptic cleft which are capable of affecting nearby cells such as other nerve cells and muscle cells. Neurotransmitter molecules include, among others, serotonin, acetylcholine, dopamine, norepinephrine and histamine. Moreover, the synaptic cleft is the space that separates a neuron cell and its target cell. On the other hand, neurons transmit signals through electrical impulses. Electrical impulses travel long distances in the body carried by axons of the nerves. Thus, nerve impulses connect the brain and spinal cord and they carry signals to different parts of the body.
Vitamin b12 is the most popular deficiency at the moment- B12 creates red blood cells which travels oxygen around the body- having B12 deficiency can lead to anaemia.

Explanation:
The endocrine system is a complex of glands that secrete <u>hormones</u> as a chemical messenger. These hormones carry information and instructions throughout the bloodstream from one part of the body to another. These hormones control many body functions such as respiration, sensory perception, metabolisms, growth, reproduction, the mood among others.
On the other hand, the nervous system is made up of neurons that communicate with each other to extend a message (from our own body or the outside) to the brain, for analysis and further decision of what to do with that information. A group of neurons, sensory neurons, respond to several stimuli such as touch, light, and sound to let the brain know about the surrounding environment. Another group of neurons, motor neurons, work inside the body and carry signals to active muscle or glands.
