There are three main regions of the kidney.
<span>1.Renal cortex - It is the outer region of the kidney which contains the renal corpuscles and the renal tubules (without the loop of Henle). It produces the erythropoietin.</span>
<span>2.Renal medulla - It is the innermost part of the kidney which contains the renal pyramids.</span>
<span>3.Renal pelvis - It is the region that collects urine from the nephrons, thus it contains the place where ureter leaves the kidney.</span>
Answer:
Epinephrine binds to receptors on some smooth muscles (ex: around arterioles) → Ca++ released from ER → intracellular Ca++ up → stimulates contraction. c. Epinephrine binds to receptors on some smooth muscles (ex: around bronchioles) → phosphorylates protein needed for response to Ca++, preventing response.
Proteins perform numerous functions in the cell membrane, one of which is to regulate the movement of materials, atoms of elements and other ions as they are entering and exiting the cell. These proteins that play this significant role, would be classified as transmembrane proteins, which are specific kind of intergral proteins.
