<h2>GFR </h2>
Explanation:
A decrease in GFR will cause lower Na and Cl ion concentration in the distal tubule
- GFR stands for Glomerular Filtration Rate
- The rate at which kidneys filter blood is called the glomerular filtration rate
- The main driving force for the filtering process, or outward pressure is the blood pressure as it enters the glomerulus which is counteracted to some extent by inward pressure due to the hydrostatic pressure of the fluid within the urinary space, and the pressure generated by the proteins left in the capillaries that tend to pull water back into the circulatory system (colloidal osmotic pressure)
- The net filtration pressure is the outward pressure minus the inward pressure
Answer:
A. acquired traits can be passed to offspring.
Explanation:
Mendel tracked the segregation of parental genes and their appearance in the offspring as dominant or recessive traits.
Answer:
Herbivore that feeds on producers
Explanation:
The producers are plants at the bottom of the food web. These are eaten by herbivores, that are the primary consumers.
Herbivores themselves are consumed by carnivores, which are secondary consumers.
Sometimes, these carnivores can be consumed by top predators, like a shark, snake or eagle.
<u>Options and why they are right/wrong</u>
Carnivore that feeds on producers - carnivores do not feed on producers
Herbivore that feeds on producers - this is correct
Herbivore that feeds on primary consumers - primary consumers are animals and herbivores do not eat animals
Carnivore that feeds on primary consumers - this would be a secondary consumer
Answer:
E. 3, 6, 7, 4, 5, 8, 1, 2
Explanation:
Systemic circulation is the circulatory pathway which is involved in the transport of the oxygenated blood to the body when pumped by the heart through arteries, capillaries and then back to the heart.
In the given question, the order of vessels in the systemic circulation has been asked which begins with the entry of the deoxygenated blood to the heart.
1. The deoxygenated blood enters the blood from vena cava to the right ventricle.
2. From the right ventricle, the blood enters the right atrium which pumps the de-oxygenated blood to the lungs through an artery called the pulmonary artery.
3. In the lungs, the blood becomes oxygen rich and is returned to the left atrium through the pulmonary vein.
4. The blood then enters the left atrium which is then pumped to the body through the main artery called the aorta.
This completes the systemic circulation and thus, Option-E is correct.
