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.

why would having both polar and nonpolar properties in a protective boundary be advantageous for the cell?

Reika [66]

Explanation:

The polar nature of the membrane’s surface can attract polar molecules, where they can later be transported through various mechanisms. Also, the non-polar region of the membrane allows for the movement of small non-polar molecules across the membrane’s interior, while preventing the movement of polar molecules, thus maintaining the cell’s composition of solutes and other substances by limiting their movement.

Further explanation:

Lipids are composed of fatty acids which form the hydrophobic tail and glycerol which forms the hydrophilic head; glycerol is a 3-Carbon alcohol which is water soluble, while the fatty acid tail is a long chain hydrocarbon (hydrogens attached to a carbon backbone) with up to 36 carbons. Their polarity or arrangement can give these non-polar macromolecules hydrophilic and hydrophobic properties i.e. they are amphiphilic. Via diffusion, small water molecules can move across the phospholipid bilayer acts as a semi-permeable membrane into the extracellular fluid or the cytoplasm which are both hydrophilic and contain large concentrations of polar water molecules or other water-soluble compounds.

Similarly via osmosis, the water passes through the membrane due to the difference in osmotic pressure on either side of the phospholipid bilayer, this means that the water moves from regions of high osmotic pressure/concentration to regions of low pressure/ concentration to a steady state.

Transmembrane proteins are embedded within the membrane from the extracellular fluid to the cytoplasm, and are sometimes attached to glycoproteins (proteins attached to carbohydrates) which function as cell surface markers. Carrier proteins and channel proteins are the two major classes of membrane transport proteins; these allow large molecules called solutes (including essential biomolecules) to cross the membrane.
