<span>The juxtaglomerular cells near each kidney are stimulated to secrete the enzyme renin into the blood. Renin circulates throughout the body and converts angiotensinogen, made in the liver, into angiotensin I. In the lungs, angiotensin I is converted by hydrolysis to angiotensin II. Angiotensin II acts on the adrenal cortex to stimulate production of aldosterone. Aldosterone acts on the juxtaglomerular cells to increase sodium and water retention and to stimulate or depress further renin secretion, completing the feedback system that automatically readjusts homeostasis.</span>

Yakvenalex [24]

Answer:

Monocots differ from dicots in four distinct structural features: leaves, stems, roots and flowers. ... Whereas monocots have one cotyledon (vein), dicots have two. This small difference at the very start of the plant's life cycle leads each plant to develop vast differences.          They are similiar in ssome ways are they both grow with a type of leave same shae in third growing proscess

andrew-mc [135]

if there is a source of water and single celled organisms, life will be possible on that planet. The planet will need a atmosphere so 1. it will have its own gravity 2. and so that gas molecules ( including oxygen) will not be able to escape into space. the world population will be roughly 10.7 billion people so the planet will need to be spacious. A planet as described would be perfect if you take the right measures. if it has single celled organisms than its proven that it can and will sustain life. So, the planet has a water source, contains living organisms, is spacious, and has a atmosphere.

Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase deficiency (G6PD) is inherited as an X-linked recessive allele in humans. A woman whose father
prohojiy [21]

Answer:

(a) 1/2; (b) no

Explanation:

Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase deficiency (G6PD) is an X-linked recessive disorder and the woman's father was diseased so it means that woman is a carrier of the allele but has normal phenotype. It means that she will have XXᵇ genotype.

In contrast to this, her husband is diseased so his genotype will be XᵇY.

The Punnett square diagram related to the cross is attached.

(a) Proportion of their sons expected to be G6PD is 1/2:

They both may give birth to 4 progeny with genotypes XXᵇ, XᵇXᵇ, XY and XᵇY. It means they both may have 2 sons out of which one with genotype XᵇY will be diseased while the one with genotype XY will be healthy. So the proportion of their sons having G6PD is 1/2 or 50%.

(b) If the husband were G6PD deficient, the answer will not change.

The reason behind this is that this disease is caused by an allele located in X chromosome. But father contributes only Y chromosome to his son not X chromosome. The X chromosome will affect the genotype of his daughter not son that is why answer will not change. It means they will still have 1/2 of their sons diseased.
