Answer:

Net filtration would decrease.

Explanation:

Net filtration pressure may be defined as the pressure present at the glomerulus. The net filtration pressure is the outward pressure minus the inward pressure existing at the kidney.

The net filtration pressure is affected by the osmotic pressure as well. The osmotic pressure always opposed the filtration. This might result in the increase in osmotic pressure. This will ultimately decrease the net filtration pressure as both oppose each other.

Thus, the correct answer is option (b).

What would be the outcome of crossing two strains of wingless flies that belong to the same complementation group?
STALIN [3.7K]

Answer:

Wingless offspring

Explanation:

Complementation is the terminology used for finding difference in the mutation of same or different gene.  

Two groups with same complementation have failed to complement each other.  

Thus, two wingless flies will have the same genotype i.e “ww”

When two wingless flies are crossed following offspring are produced  

ww * ww  

ww, ww, ww, ww

All the offspring are wingless too

From a chemical view, how is an amino acid is being recognized by its specific aminoacyl tRNA synthetase?
nydimaria [60]

Answer:

An aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase (aaRS or ARS), also called tRNA-ligase, is an enzyme that attaches the appropriate amino acid onto its corresponding tRNA. It does so by catalyzing the transesterification of a specific cognate amino acid or its precursor to one of all its compatible cognate tRNAs to form an aminoacyl-tRNA.

Describe the two main stages of photosynthesis in general terms
zhenek [66]
There are 2 stages in photosynthesis
light stage and dark stage
light stage takes placein the grana because there's presence of chlorophyll. 2 reactions take place here.
1. photolysis of water where water molecules are split into hydrogen ions and oxygen gas in presence of chlorophyll and oxygen gas. the oxygen gas is released into the atmosphere but hydrogen ions are used in dark stage.
2. formation of adenosine triphosphate which is formed by combination of adenosine diphosphate and an inorganic phosphate in presence of light. this adenosine triphosphate is also used in dark stage
dark stage is a light independent stage which takes place in the stroma. energy is provided by adenosine triphosphate formed in the light stage. this stage involves tge combination of carbon(iv)oxide and hydrogen ions to form a simple carbohydrate and a water molecule. this process is known as carbon(iv)oxide fixation which is the reduction of carbon(iv)oxideby hydrogen ions using adenosine triphosphate energy to form a simple carbohydrate.
This simple carbohydrate is changed to glucose for use in the plant or to starch for storage
