Answer: blood calcium level

Explanation:

There are several factors affecting the rate of kidney filtrate formation including filtration membrane integrity

, systemic blood pressure, and renal artery/arteriole diameters.

Filtration membrane integrity

: It regulates the filtration of small fitrates and large filtrates. It is very important to handle the osmotic pressure of salts, if it will get damage the filtration will not take place properly.

Systemic blood pressure: systemic blood pressure is very important factor as it affects the Glomerular Filtration Rate (GFR). Low blood pressure or volume due to dehydration can result in decreased GFR.

Renal artery/arteriole diameters: The filtrate move through the renal artery and if it's diameter will increase or decrease it will affect the movement of filtrate. if diameter will decrease it can block the renal artery and can cause a huge damage.

Blood calcium level do not have any role in the kidney filterate formation or renal regulation.

Hence, the correct option is blood calcium level.

mafiozo [28]

Answer:

I'm not writing your paragraph for you, but I'll give you some help on it.

Explanation:

2 animals that will compete are ants

they are constantly fighting for new territory

What happens, is that when the attackers come, the scouts for the defenders spray something (I forget what) into the air. This alerts the more heavily armed troops nearby. If the defenders win, the attacks are driven back to their colony. If the attackers win, the ants in the defending colony are either overrun and killed, or they run. If the attackers win, they find all the larvae in the nest and either kill them to stop the line together, or in some cases, eat them.

Hope this helps.
