Answer:

Juxtaglomenular is a structure in the kidney which regulates the function of each nephron, the functional units of the kidney. The main function of the juxtaglomerular cells is to secrete renin in response to:

Stimulation of the beta-1 adrenergic receptor

Decrease in renal perfusion pressure (detected directly by the granular cells)

Decrease in NaCl concentration at the macula densa, often due to a decrease in glomerular filtration rate

Explanation:

The juxtaglomerular apparatus is a specialized structure formed by the distal convoluted tubule and the glomerular afferent arteriole. It is located near the vascular pole of the glomerulus and a structure in the kidney that regulates the function of each nephron, the functional units of the kidney.

Interphase is the phase before it starts mitosis in which the cell grows and replicates both it’s DNA and organelles. This phase takes up 78% of the cell’s lifetime = 561.6 minutes

Prophase takes up around 14% of the cell’s life cycle = 102.8 minutes

Metaphase involves 4% of the total mitosis cycle so = 28.8 minutes

Anaphase is the shortest phase of mitosis, taking up only 0.8% of the cycle = 5.2 minutes

Telophase is the final phase of the mitosis cell cycle and lasts around 3% of the total time = 21.6 minutes
