Answer: The juxtaglomerular complex is a system that regulates the rate of filtrate formation and systemic blood pressure. This is made up of the distal convoluted tubule and the glomerular afferent arteriole. In the distal convoluted tubule, there are specialized epithelial cells (macula densa) that detect sodium concentration of the liquid in the tubule. Because of the increase in sodium, the macula densa cells activate the afferent arteriole’s contraction, which reduces blood flow in the glomerulus. In the afferent arteriole, there are juxtaglomerular cells which secrete renin when the blood pressure decreases.

Give SOME EXAMPLES OF NATURAL CYCLE CHECKPOINTS .
Shalnov [3]

Answer:

For example, delays in mitosis are often ascribed to 'activation' of the mitotic checkpoint, a descriptor that fails to recognize that the checkpoint by definition is active as the cell starts mitosis. Conversely, the completion of mitosis in the presence of misaligned chromosomes is often automatically interpreted to indicate a defective checkpoint, even though in the absence of critical testing alternative interpretations are equally likely. In this article, we define the critical characteristics of checkpoints and illustrate how confusion generated by the inconsistent use of terminology may impede progress by fostering claims that mean very different things to different researchers. We will illustrate our points with examples from the checkpoint that controls progression through mitosis
