The glomerulus is supplied blood by the afferent arteriole, then the efferent arteriole takes away blood from the glomerulus.
The afferent arteriole has a larger diameter than the efferent arteriole.
The efferent arteriole, due to its smaller diameter creates some resistance to blood flow causing a blood back-up which creates a high pressure in the glomerular cavity. Therefore fluid and solute are forced out from the blood and into the glomerular capsule. Most of this filtrate is returned to the blood via peritubular capillary bed surrounding the nephron.
The third option from top is the answer. The major products that result from the Krebs cycle are NADH, FADH and ATP in that order.
The Krebs cycle is the central metabolic pathway in all aerobic organisms. The cycle is a series of eight reactions that occur in the mitochondrion. These reactions take a two carbon molecule called acetate and completely oxidize it to carbon dioxide.
The Krebs cycle serves two main purposes namely:
1.To increase the cell's ATP producing potential by generating reduced electron carriers such as NADH and reduced ubiquinone.
2. To provide the cell with a variety of metabolic precursors.
By the time the eight reactions in Krebs cycle are over, one ATP, one FADH and four NADH molecules will have been produced
Answer:
Facial dimples are genetically inherited. Since his dad also has dimples, it was pretty much a surefire outcome. Since dimples are a dominant trait, only one parent needs to have them.
Answer:
B. In the absence of oxygen, cells release ATP by breaking down
ethanol into glucose and water.
