True. If the diameter of the afferent arterioles leading to the glomerulus increases due to vasodilation, which ultimately increases the net filtration pressure.
The filtration of blood occurs in the kidney, an excretory organ. The kidney is composed of numerous small units called nephrons, which is responsible for the blood filtration.
Glomerulus is part of nephron and the glomerular filtration occurs in the renal corpuscle of the kidney. This process is driven by hydrostatic and colloid osmotic pressure.
These pressures are collectively called net filtration pressure, which is influenced by the diameter of afferent arterioles.
If the arterioles constricts, net filtration pressure will decrease and if arterioles dilates, net filtration pressure will increase. This mechanism is regulated by neural, renal and hormonal regulation.

Food web only contains interactions between trophic levels while an interaction web shows both trophic and non-trophic interactions.
Global warming / climate change resulting in the melting of glaciers causing a rise in sea level.
Answer: A zygote
Explanation:
a diploid cell resulting from the fusion of two haploid gametes; a fertilized ovum.
Answer:
Differences between Sympathetic and Parasympathetic
1. Anatomical: The location of preganglionic neurons of the autonomic ganglia and the extension of preganglionic and postganglionic fibers are different in these two systems;
2. Pharmacological: In the Sympathetic system we have the presence of Cholinergic fibers (Ach) and in the Parasympathetic system we have the presence of Noradrenergic fibers (NE);
3. Physiological: They act antagonistically, they rarely work harmoniously synergistically in coordinating visceral activity (balance)
