It is widely accepted that the Earth’s interior is composed of several layers: the crust, the mantle and the core. Since the crust is readily accessible, scientists have been able to perform hands-on experiments to determine its composition; studies on the more distant mantle and core have more limited opportunities samples, so scientists also rely on analyses of seismic waves and gravity, as well as magnetic studies.

Measuring Seismic Waves

It is impossible to drill to the center of the earth, so scientists rely on indirect observations of matter lying below the surface through use of seismic waves and their knowledge of how these waves travel during and after an earthquake.

Finger [1]

Answer:

E. juxtaglomerular complex

Explanation:

Macula densa cells are the columnar tubule cells. They are present in the wall of afferent arterioles. The modified fibers of smooth muscles present in the lining of the afferent arteriole are called juxtaglomerular cells.

The juxtaglomerular cells and macula densa cells together make the juxtaglomerular apparatus, also called juxtaglomerular complex. The function of the juxtaglomerular apparatus is to maintain the blood pressure of kidneys.
