Answer: Option B

The concentration of protein in the postglomerular blood is high comparef with arterial blood because as water passes into the capsule, the concentration of protein in the blood will increase.

Explanation:

Kidneys are bean shaped organs present in veterbrates and it is located in the retroperitoneal space. Kidney filtration involves where blood passes through the afferent arterioles and enters the glomerulus where blood that can be filter like nitrogenous waste and water moves towards the glomerulus and nonfilterable substances such as cells and serum albumins pass out through efferent arterioles. Thee concentration of protein increases from arterial to the post glomerular because some of the water molecules diffuses to the filtrate therefore, reducing water concentration. This lead to increase in concentration of protein because water is not available to diffuse the protein.

Dmitriy789 [7]

Answer:

Large quantities of water molecules constantly move across cell membranes by simple diffusion, often facilitated by movement through membrane proteins, including aquaporins. In general, net movement of water into or out of cells is negligible. For example, it has been estimated that an amount of water equivalent to roughly 100 times the volume of the cell diffuses across the red blood cell membrane every second; the cell doesn't lose or gain water because equal amounts go in and out. There are, however, many cases in which net flow of water occurs across cell membranes and sheets of cells. An example of great importance to you is the secretion of and absorption of water in your small intestine. In such situations, water still moves across membranes by simple diffusion, but the process is important enough to warrant a distinct name - osmosis.
