What percentage of glomerular filtrate becomes urine?

1 answer:

5 0

Only about 1% of the glomerular filtrate becomes urine. This is one of the many facets of Renal Physiology. The nephrons are the part of the kidneys which are responsible for filtering the blood. Along with the blood are cells, proteins, and large molecules that also filtered by the nephrons through the process of ultrafiltration. Only a few of these deposits are turned into urine when they reach the collecting ducts of the kidneys.

What is selectively permaeble

vesna_86 [32]

Selectively permeable (or semi permeable) means where for example a membrane can choose what material can pass through while others cannot. They control the in and out of materials.
This is because the membrane has tiny spaces, where only smaller molecules can pass through, other larger ones cannot.

In the nucleus, __________ tell cells what to do and how to change.

AfilCa [17]

Answer:

The nucleus regulates the synthesis of proteins in the cytoplasm through the use of messenger RNA (mRNA). Messenger RNA is a transcribed DNA segment that serves as a template for protein production. It is produced in the nucleus and travels to the cytoplasm through the nuclear pores of the nuclear envelope, which you'll read about below. Once in the cytoplasm, ribosomes and another RNA molecule called transfer RNA work together to translate mRNA in order to produce proteins.

(c) Based on the data in Table 1, describe why the dominant alleles for body color and wing shape are the alleles that produce a

Brrunno [24]

Answer:

Check the explanation

Explanation:

Consider the below table of F2 data of phenotypic flies: we can reconstruct the table as seen in the second attached image below:

From the above observations it is clear the Gray body long wings and Ebony body vestigial wings are the parental combinations and that the Gray body vestigial wings and Ebony body long wings are the recombinants.

Also the ratio indicates that Gray body is dominant over ebony body and that long wings is dominant over vestigial wings.

here the genes for the two characters have shown independent assortment which means that the genes are unlinked if located on the same chromosome or are located on different chromosomes.

Now F1 hybrid= GgLl (G for Grey and L for Long)

Cross between F1 hybrid and true breeding Gray vestigial (GGll)

GgLl x GG ll

Gametes-----------> GL Gl gL gl Gl

GL Gl gL gl

Gl GGLl GGll GgLl Ggll

(Gray long) (Gray vestigial) (gray Long) (Gray vestigial)

Therefore the probability of getting the flies with gray body vestigial wings= 2/4= 50%

b) The reason why the students obtained the above given F2 results involving a cross between true breeding Gray body and long wings with true breeding Ebony body and vestigial wings is that the genes for the two charcters asssort independently in F2 generation and that the genes are not linked as:

Parents------------------> GGLL x ggll

Gametes -----------------> GL gl

F1---------------------> GgLl (Gray long but in heterozous condition)

Now GgLl x GgLl

Gametes GL Gl gL gl GL Gl gL gl

Here gametes assorted independently and hence in F2 generation we got the above results (U can show the results in the form of punnett square.

The barrier is cultural differences.
John, growing up in America learned that eye contact is a way of respect and to show you are paying attention.
Where Cho, growing up in Asia, many Asian counties don't have this "custom" to call it that.
