Blood pressure

This is indicated in Starling's Hypothesis in which there is fluid movement due to filtration across the wall of capillary. This is dependent between hydrostatic pressure gradient and oncotic pressure across the capillary. The balance of these forces allow the net driving pressure for filtration. The net fluid influc is proportional to this net driving pressure. The leakage of proteins across the capillary membrane has important effects and has corresponding cause in the balance of forces.

All of the following enhance water transport in terrestrial plants except: a) hydrogen bonds linking water molecules. b) capilla
Nimfa-mama [501]

Answer:

D) K being transported out of the guard cell.

Explanation:

The movement of water in the terrestrial plants is a very important factor as each cell of the plant require water to survive.

The movement of water is influenced by many physical, chemical and process going on in the plants like transpiration and stomatal opening and closing.

Water posses adhesion and cohesion properties which allow the water molecules to form a bond with other surface and with each other respectively. This allows the movement of water in the xylem by a process called capillary action.

The evaporation of water creates a pressure on the plant to absorb water from the soil but when potassium ions move out of the guard cell of stomata, the guard cells lose turgidity and stomata gets closed.

Thus, Option-D is correct.

Renin is released by cells of the apparatus in response to afferent arteriole pressure and the degree of stretch of the arteriol
astra-53 [7]

Answer: True

Explanation:

Renin ( angiotensinogenase), is an aspartic protease protein which is secreted by kidney that participates in the body's renin – angiotensin – aldosterone network that mediates arterial vasoconstriction and extracellular fluid volume.

Renin is released by cells of the juxtaglomerular apparatus in response to the stimuli of decrease in arterial blood pressure and the degree of stretch of the arteriole wall.

Hence, the statement is true.

IgorLugansk [536]
A recombinant DNA is artificially constructed DNA molecule with genes of interest that would not be present in the genome otherwise. It is a combination of a vector and a gene of interest. The recombinant DNA is inserted into bacteria E. coli, which, thanks to their reproductive potential, produce multiple copies of this recombinant DNA along with the chromosomal DNA. So, the gene for insulin is inserted int bacteria where is transcribed together with bacterial genes and the great amount of insulin is produced.
