Answer:

B. Ribosome

Explanation:

Ribosomes are the organelles that serve as a site for protein synthesis. Each ribosome has two subunits. The small subunit first joins with mRNA and the initiator tRNA to start the process of protein synthesis. The large subunit joins the complex and the proteins are synthesized according to the nucleotide sequence of the mRNA read in the form of genetic triplets. Ribosomes are present in cytosol as well as on the surface of the rough endoplasmic reticulum of a eukaryotic cell. In both locations, they are involved in the process of protein synthesis.

Answer:

(B) Ribosome

Explanation:

The ribosome is an organelle composed of RNA proteins and the ribosomal RNA. The proteins and rRNA form the two subunits: the small and large subunit. The ribosomes either attached to the endoplasmic reticulum or float freely in the cytoplasm of the cell.

The structure of RNA contains three sites called A, P and E sites which helps in the "synthesis of proteins" from the mRNA molecule. The mRNA produced in the nucleus gets transported from the nucleus to the ribosomes attached to the endoplasmic reticulum and the proteins are synthesized by the process of translation.

Thus, Option-B is the correct answer.

Before the forming urine flows into the distal tubule of the nephron, it is in the _____ ______ _____, where water is absorbed a
liraira [26]

Answer:

<em>"Before the forming urine flows into the distal tubule of the nephron, it is in the </em><em>loop of Henle</em><em>, where water is absorbed as the fluid descends into the deep medulla of the kidney, and salts are absorbed as the fluid flows back up to the cortex of the kidney".</em>

Explanation:

Henle´s loop is a specific section of renal tubules that forms the nephrons.

In this U-shaped region, the two parts of the contorted tubule, the distal and the proximal part, are very close to each other. In the kidney, both parts of the tubules are located in the renal cortex, while the loop of Henle is located within the renal medulla.

The proximal region of the Henle´s loop is a permeable region, unlike the proximal and distal regions of the renal tubule.  

This is why it is possible the interchange of water and ions in the Henle´s loop. In the loop´s walls, cells present aquaporines in their membranes that allow passive water absorption, while they do not allow the transport of ions and urea. In this way 25% of the water that passes through the kidney might be filtered.  

The ascendant side of the loop, which is narrower, the tubule wall is impermeable to water but allows the ions´reabsorption. Here, cells present sodium, potassium, and chloride channels.

Potassium sodium pump transporters are found in the basolateral zone. While in the apical area are active transporters of the 3 ions.

Due to these differences in the water and ions´absorption between the two parts of the Henle´s loop, a countercurrent multiplier effect is produced, stratifying the osmotic compounds of the medullary interstitium, being the part closest to the cortex less concentrated than the part closest to the renal papilla, which is about 4 times more concentrated in ions.
