Answer:

The correct answer is "to control the crossing of the traits to maintain a pure strain".

Explanation:

Gregor Mendel is considered the father of genetics for his studies of  inheritance in pea plants. Mendel studied how the pea plant's traits are transferred trough generations by cross-pollination. However, in nature pea plants are usually reproduced by self-pollination at which the progeny is produced by a single plant. Mendel prevented his plants from self-pollinating to control the crossing of the traits to maintain a pure strain. By doing so, Mendel assured that the only reproducing method that he was studying was cross-pollination.

Which part of the nephron receives fluid directly from the glomerular capsular space?
Gala2k [10]

The proximal tubule is the segment of the nephron in kidneys which begins from the renal pole of the Bowman's capsule to the beginning of loop of Henle. The glomerulus is the site in the nephron where fluid and solutes are filtered out of the blood to form a glomerular filtrate. The proximal and distal tubules, the loop of Henle, and the collecting ducts are sites for the reabsorption of water and ions. Fluid and small solutes are forced under pressure to flow from the glomerulus into the capsular space of the glomerular capsule.

Reabsorption as this filtrate passes through the tubules, specific substances are reabsorbed back into the blood of the peritubular capillaries. Bowman's capsule surrounds the glomerular capillary loops and participates in the filtration of blood from the glomerular capillaries.
