Given the following choices

A. position of the carbon-carbon double bonds

B. presence of enclosed carbon atom rings

C. branching of the carbon chain

D. length of the carbon chain

The answers are; B, C & D. Carbon is a versatile atom (with a valence of +4) and is able to bond with other elements and other carbon atoms in different ways. It can form linear and branching chains of varying lengths. It can form double and single bonds with elements and form rings such as the deoxyribose sugars.

vredina [299]

Taxonomy, or taxonomy, is originally derived from the need for scientific classification of species. It now extends to other sciences, including human sciences, information sciences and computer science. Sometimes we call it "taxonomy" to describe the result of a taxonomic activity, that is to say a classification.

The traditional classification is based on a fixed hierarchy of categories (taxon ranks), defined as follows:

Reign (or Kingdom) (there are currently six) → Division (or phylum) → class → order → family → gender → species.

Which structure is highlighted? proximal convoluted tubule descending loop of Henle distal convoluted tubule ascending loop of H

SVETLANKA909090 [29]

Answer:

distal convoluted tubule

Explanation:

This is the region of the nephron downstream the macula densa ,which extends the to convulence of the collecting duct.Due to response to mineralocoticoid aldosterone they can be categorised as Distal Convoluted 1 and Distal convoluted 2. This steroid hormones is responsible for homeostatic control of hyperkalemia.

The DCT cells are simple cuboidal epithelium.The stained or pointed part of the image represented this possess this shape,they are therefore portion of DCT. Besides the stained cells are located above the glomerulus ()in the cortex as indicated,therefore they can not be the proximal which must be below the glomerulus, based on the shape ascending and descending loop of Henle (despite located in the cortex too).

The functions of the DCT is in the absorption and secretions of ions(majorly ca+,Na+ and chloride ions.By secreting hydrogen and reabsorbing HC03 ions ,the pH of the urine is maintained.
