Answer:
A. Renin levels increase with poor kidney perfusion
D. Nephrotoxic drugs are a cause of intrarenal failure.
Explanation:
Renin is produced in the kidney for angiotensin aldosterone hormonal system and it is helpful in maintaining the blood pressure and other metabolic activities. However when the renin level is high then it means the kidney has a perfusion issue .
Nephrons are kidney cells. When a drug which is toxic to them gets into the body system then it affects the kidney and may cause kidney failure.
Answer: A fluid phospholipid bilayer with embedded proteins.
Explanation: Biological membranes are composed of phospholipids that interact with each other to form a bilayer in which proteins are embedded. Phospholipids have the fatty acyl chains (hydrophobic tails) which face each other to form the interior of the bilayer, while their polar head groups face the outward environment interacting with water molecules. The fluid mosaic model for structure of biological membranes is due to the interactions between the hydrophobic tails of the lipids. The fatty acyl chains of the phospholipids (nonpolar/ hydrophobic tails) in the interior of the membrane form a fluid hydrophobic region while the integral proteins float in the sea of these lipids. The proteins and lipids move freely and laterally in the plane of the bilayer, but movement there is restriction in the movement from one face of the bilayer to the other. The proteins are embedded at regular intervals and are held by hydrophobic interactions between the membrane lipids and the hydrophobic regions of the proteins.
The membrane mosaic is fluid because most of the interactions among its components are noncovalent, thereby leaving the lipid and protein molecules free to move laterally in the plane of the membrane.
Answer:
a genome
Explanation:
A genome is the complete set of genetic information in an organism. It provides all of the information the organism requires to function. In living organisms, the genome is stored in long molecules of DNA called chromosomes.
The birds adapted to the changes. Since the large nuts were no longer as abundant because of the large birds, the small birds were left with the smaller nuts. Their larger beaks lost their use since the small nuts did not require such well-structured beaks, so the birds started to develop smaller beaks.
