The right answer is A: intercellular communication.

An example of intercellular communication is the one between the kidney, liver and lungs to preserve water-soluble homeostasis.

Angiotensinogen, an inactive protein produced by the liver, circulates in the blood. It is the precursor of the active peptides angiotensin I and II, and the only substrate of renin.

In the event of a drop in the pressure in the renal artery, renin (an enzyme sometimes considered as a hormone) is secreted in the kidney by differentiated myoepithelial cells of the arteriole afferent of the juxtaglomerular apparatus. There are also other stimuli promoting renin secretion: decreased natremia in the distal convoluted tubule, ß-agonists, hyperkalemia, PGI2 and stimulation of juxta-glomerular cells by the sympathetic nervous system)

The angiotensinogen is cleaved by the renin and forms a decapeptide called "angiotensin I", inactive.

Angiotensin I will then be converted primarily to angiotensin II by a carboxypeptidase, the angiotensin converting enzyme. This enzyme, secreted by the liver, acts at the pulmonary level.

Answer:

The answer is <u><em>Intracellular Communication</em></u>

Explanation:

A lung cell maintains homeostasis is an example of intracellular communication. The concept of intracellular communication includes an anterograde and retrograde signaling network between nucleus and the two organelles, enabling this interactive exchange of information essential for cellular hemostasis.

Answer:

So i just finished doing this project and this what i put, I hope this helps (:

Explanation:

1. When mass 1 increases the force between the objects increases. If Mass 2 decreases, the force between the objects decreases

2. An object with more mass has more/less gravitational force than an object with a smaller mass. Objects that are closer together have more/less of a gravitational force between them than objects that are further apart. The more separation two objects have, the more the force between them decreases.

3. The forces are equal (Newton's third law of motion)

4. The force between the spheres will quadruple

5. ( I dont know what this is )

6. The force of gravity exerted by the notebook on you is negligible

--The force of gravity

If there is a force between all masses, why are you not pulled toward your desk by the desk’s gravity when you walk away from it? Remember that the net force on you determines how your motion changes. The force of gravity between you and the desk is extremely small compared with other forces constantly acting on you, such as friction, the force from your muscles, Earth’s gravity, and the gravitational pull from many other objects. The strength of the gravitational force between two objects depends on two factors, mass and distance. The Mass of the Objects The more mass two objects have, the greater the force of gravity the masses exert on each other. If one of the masses is doubled, the force of gravity between the objects is doubled.

--The Distance Between the Objects

As distance between the objects increases, the force of gravity decreases. If the distance is doubled, the force of gravity is one-fourth as strong as before.

--Gravity on Earth

​​​​​​​ The force of gravity acts on both masses equally, even though the effects on both masses may be very different. Earth’s gravity exerts a downward pull on a dropped coin. Remember that every action force has an equal and opposite reaction force. The coin exerts an equal upward force on Earth. Because the coin has an extremely small mass compared with Earth, the coin can be easily accelerated. Earth’s acceleration due to the force of the coin is far too small to notice because of Earth’s large mass. The acceleration due to Earth’s gravity is called g and is equal to 9.8 m/s2 at Earth’s surface. You can calculate the force of Earth’s gravity on an object at Earth’s surface using the object’s mass and this acceleration. The formula that expresses Newton’s second law is F = ma. If you use g as the acceleration, the formula for calculating the force due to gravity on a mass close to Earth’s surface becomes F = mg.

Answer:

The cells adapted by modifying their shapes.

Explanation:

The larger the cell, the smaller the surface / volume ratio. This can be a problem because it causes the cell to have difficulty in absorbing nutrients, in addition to having difficulties in releasing substances that are not relevant inside. To circumvent these difficulties and have a good functioning, many large cells adapt by modifying their shapes to increase their surface. In this way many large cells are presented with a thin and elongated shape, others create several appendages on their surface.
