Contractile vacuoles are organelles that are responsible for excretion function. They perform osmoregulation which manages wastes, water and other needed materials in the cell. They are found in some prokaryoric organisms like the algae, protists, amoeba and other unicellular organisms.
Answer: A federally funded research study involving children 8 to 12 years old involves collecting a single voided urine sample to assess the frequency of asymptomatic <em>proteinuria</em>.
Your IRB has determined that assent of children age 8 and older is required for the study. A 10 year old firmly declined to participate in the study.
The best procedure that describes the <u>action </u>to be taken by the investigator is:
