</span> <span><span>· </span>juxtaglomerular cells- formed from the smooth muscle cells of the afferent arteriole (secrete renin),</span>
<span><span>· </span>extraglomerular mesangial cells (lacis cells)-unknown function.</span> <span> </span>

Answer:
Explanation:
Proteins and Nucleic Acids are not similar in structure. They look nothing alike, either as large molecules or in terms of their building blocks. While they're both made up of mostly carbon, hydrogen, nitrogen, and oxygen, the elements are assembled in vastly different ways. The major relationship between the two has to do with protein production -- DNA contains the information that a cell uses, with the help of RNA, to make protein.
Answer:
Interlobular -- Located between lobules, within the thin connective tissue septa that separate lobules. All interlobular ducts are excretory.
