The question is incomplete. The complete question is as follows:

Which of the following is not true regarding fenestrated capillaries?

A) Fenestrated capillaries in endocrine organs allow hormones rapid entry into the blood.

B) Fenestrated capillaries in the small intestine receive nutrients from digested food.

C) Fenestrated capillaries are essential for filtration of blood plasma in the kidney.

D) Fenestrated capillaries form the blood-brain barrier.

Answer:

Fenestrated capillaries form the blood-brain barrier.

Explanation:

The fenesterated capillaries are small fine thin capillaries that helps in the exchange of substances. These capillaries are mainly found in the kidney, small intestine and glands.

The fenestrted capillaries allow the exchnage of hormone in the blood and in the kidney for the filtration. The nutrients can be easily exchanged by the capillaries present in the small intestine. The blood brain barrier function is not performed by the fenesterated capillaries. They allows the rapid exchange function and not as the barrier.

Thus, the correct answer is option (D).

WARRIOR [948]

Answer:

The correct answer is C and Engelmann conducted this experiment to prove relationship between algae and the rate of photosynthesis.

Explanation: First we must talk about 3 facts:

1) Prism scatters the white light into different wavelengths.

2) Photosynthesis, 6 carbon dioxide and 6 water molecules are consumed and 6 oxygen and 1 sugar molecule is synthesized using light energy.

6CO2 + 6H2O → C6H12O6 + 6O2

3) Aerobic bacteria breaks down sugar while using oxygen and produces water and carbon dioxide in simplified terms.

So with this experimental setup a researcher can understand the rate of the photosynthesis by increased accumulation of aerobic bacteria near algae  in certain wavelengths since they uses oxygen and tend to move close to the oxygen source (<u>see figure</u>). In this experiment there are no ways to measure heat (B), there is no known relation between wavelength of light and aerobic respiration since it can happen even in the dark (A) and finally there are no ways to measure carbon dioxide (D).

A selectively permeable membrane separates two solutions. Water is able to pass through this membrane; however, sucrose (a disac
NNADVOKAT [17]

Answer:

a. Nothing happens because the two solutions are isotonic to one another.

Explanation:

Two solutions of the same molarity are separated from each other by a membrane that allows water molecules but not the glucose or sucrose to move across it. Movement of water across the selectively permeable membrane occurs only when two solutions have different concentrations of solutes. In that case, water moves from a hypotonic solution towards a hypertonic solution. Since both sucrose and glucose solutions have the same tonicity, there would not be any change in the solution.
