Answer:
Kidneys : helps in forming urine
Ureter : They are connected to kidney and by peristaltic action transports urine from kidneys to bladder .
Urinary bladder : It is an hollow sac that holds the urine .
Urethra : transports urine from the bladder to outside of the body .
Explanation:
The human excretory system consists of : Kidney ,ureter ,urinary bladder and urethra .The figure is shown below .
Now , as far as functions are concerned we have :
Kidneys : They have excretory units called nephrons that further consist of :
- Bowman's capsule
- PCT (Proximal convoluted tubule )
- DCT (Distal convoluted tubule)
- CT (collecting tubule )
In nephrons urine is formed and via ureter it is transported to a hollow sac like structure called urinary bladder .
This bladder has muscles that cant remain contracted up to longer period )and then voluntary and involuntary it is excreted through urethra .
The process of passing urine is called Micturition .
Answer:
Biotechnology.
Explanation:
Biotechnology may be defined as the field of biology that uses the living organisms to make product by using molecular techniques. Biotechnology involves the different field like biomedical engineering, biomanufacturing and bioengineering.
The genetic system of the living organism can be modified to obtain the desired products. Artificial insulin is prepared by the application of biotechnology. The new drugs in the market and desired trait in the living organism can be prepared by the biotechnology field.
Thus, the correct answer is biotechnology.
Answer:
Oxidation of NADH by electron transport chain ensures a continuous supply of NAD+ for glycolysis.
Explanation:
To continue the process of glycolysis, cells must have a continuous supply of NAD+ which is required during one of the reactions of the payoff phase of glycolysis. Two molecules of NADH are formed per glucose molecule during glycolysis. The NADH gives its electrons to the terminal electron acceptors (O2) via electron transport chain. This ensures that the process of glycolysis is continued in cells to breakdown the glucose into pyruvate.
When guard cells lose potassium ions, water diffuses out of the cells by osmosis. As water leaves the cells, they become flaccid and less bowed, which closes the stomata between them.
