elena-s [515]

Out of the following given choices;

A Bowman's capsules

B afferent and efferent arterioles

C nephrons

D collecting duct

E glomeruli

 

The answer is D. Also known as vasopressin (a stress hormone) acts on the receptors of the collecting ducts of the nephron during water stress to increase water reabsorption. The hormone stimulates water reabsorption by stimulating insertion of "water channels" or aquaporins into the membranes of kidney tubules.

Who performed classic experiments that supported the semiconservative model of DNA replication? (A) Watson and Crick (B) Meselso
loris [4]

"Mathew Meselson and Franklin Stahl performed classic experiments that supported semiconservative nature of DNA replication in 1985."

A band of hybrid 14N and 15N DNA was produced as a result of the DNA's initial duplication in a 14N medium. The conservative replication mode was so abandoned. "Based on their observations and experimental results, Meselson and Stahl concluded that DNA molecules can replicate semi-conservatively."

One original DNA serves as a template for the production of two DNA copies during conservative replication. One of these two is made entirely of fresh DNA, while the other is made of strands from old DNA. In semiconservative replication, the parent strand is used to make two copies of the DNA, each of which contains one original strand and the other new strand.
