If GFR is 125 ml/min, and you are studying a drug that has a renal clearance rate of 20 ml/min, you can conclude that
ahrayia [7]

Answer:

(B). The drug is reabsorbed.

Explanation:

Renal clearance rate determines the excretion of drugs into the urine during excretion. It is used to study the main process associated with a drug's renal excretion.

When the renal clearance rate is lower than GFR (glomerulus filtration rate), the drug is absorbed in the renal tubules. When the renal clearance rate is higher than GFR, the drug is secreted into the urine. When the renal clearance rate is equal to the GFR, the drug is neither reabsorbed nor secreted.

As for given drug, renal clearance is 20 ml/min (less than GFR), this drug will reabsorbed.

Thus, the correct answer is option (B).

Consider the terms egg, sperm, and sporophyte. Which term links egg and sperm directly to sporophyte?
NARA [144]

Answer:

Explanation:

La fecundación es el proceso por el cual dos gametos (masculino y femenino) se fusionan durante la reproducción sexual para crear un cigoto con un genoma derivado de ambos progenitores. Los dos fines principales de la fecundación son la combinación de genes derivados de ambos progenitores y la generación de un cigoto.

En el caso de las plantas con semillas pros, hay que diferenciar el fenómeno de la fecundación propiamente dicho (unión íntima de dos células sexuales hasta confundirse sus núcleos respectivos y, en mayor o menor grado, sus citoplasmas),1​ del proceso biológico que lo antecede: la polinización, en el que los granos de polen, desarrollados en las tecas que contiene cada antera de un estambre (hoja reproductora masculina), son transportados por el viento o los insectos a los estigmas, donde germinan emitiendo un tubo polínico que crece hacia el ovario. En este caso no se trata de gametos, sino de esporas, pues cada grano de polen contiene dos gametos o células reproductoras masculinas
