Answer:
Juxtaglomenular is a structure in the kidney which regulates the function of each nephron, the functional units of the kidney. The main function of the juxtaglomerular cells is to secrete renin in response to:
Stimulation of the beta-1 adrenergic receptor
Decrease in renal perfusion pressure (detected directly by the granular cells)
Decrease in NaCl concentration at the macula densa, often due to a decrease in glomerular filtration rate
Explanation:
The juxtaglomerular apparatus is a specialized structure formed by the distal convoluted tubule and the glomerular afferent arteriole. It is located near the vascular pole of the glomerulus and a structure in the kidney that regulates the function of each nephron, the functional units of the kidney.
Answer:
The correct sequence of muscle contraction from first to last is given below
Explanation:
step 1 myosin head interacts with actin
step 2 ATP binds to myosin head
step 3 ATP is converted to ADP and Pi
step 4 ADP and pi are released from myosin
step 5 Myosin head pivots in the power stroke
step 6 Myosin head is cocked back.
The correct options are as follows:
1. C
Homeostasis is the process by which living organisms maintains constant internal environment. Maintaining homeostasis is very important because the survival of the living organism depend on it. In order to maintain homeostasis, the amount of wastes, nutrients and water that is in an organism must be controlled and maintained at optimum level.
2. A.
An organism that can not maintain an homeostasis will die. This is because, lack of homeostasis will disrupt the biochemical reactions which sustains the life activities of the organism and once the biochemical reactions that produce life energy can no longer take place the organism will die.
3. A.
For both unicellular and multi cellular organisms, when they are exposed to water containing no salt, much of the water will move into their cells. This happened because, the level of salt in the interior of the living cells is higher and so the water will move from the medium which has no salt to the inside to the cell where there is salt. This process is known as osmosis. In osmosis water move through a semi permeable membrane from the region of low salt concentration level to the region of higher salt level concentration.
4. D.
Cells in living organisms are able to maintain homeostasis by specializing in specific functions and by working together in cooperatively. Each cell has its own functions which it performs; in the process of its duty, it communicates with other cells which also help it in order to achieve common goals, which is maintenance of homeostasis within the cell.
Answer:
Obligate anaerobes (Ans. D)
Explanation:
Gas gangrene is a bacterial infection which produces tissue gas in gangrene. This is caused by bacteria <em>Clostridium perfringens</em><em>. Clostridium perfringens</em> is a gram-positive, obligate anaerobic bacterium of the <em>Clostridium</em> genus. It is found in environmental sources & commonly found in raw meat and poultry.
Tetanus is a bacterial disease infected by <em>Clostridium tetani</em>, is an obligate anaerobic spore-forming bacteria. It is found in soil, dust and intestinal tracts of animals. Transmission of tetanus is commonly by contaminated wounds.
Answer: Gamma Rays
Explanation: They have the shortest wavelength, so they are the most intense ones. It might help to associate it with the Hulk.
