I believe it is the ascending loop of henle. In the ascending portion, the loop becomes impermeable to water and instead the cells of the loop, actively reabsorb the solute; thus water is not reabsorbed but ions are readily reabsorbed. As the ions are reabsorbed the concentration becomes more and more hypotonic until it reaches 100-150 mOsm/L. Therefore, the ascending loop is called the diluting segment of the nephron due to its ability to dilute the fluid in the loop from 1200 to 100 mOsm/L.

trapecia [35]

Answer: (c) It generates ATP, which cells can use to do work.

(d) It generates chemical gradients, which have potential energy.

Explanation:

The overall process of Cellular respiration is the aerobic break down of organic compounds (food) with the release of CO2, water and energy in form of ATP which drives most cellular work.

Organic compound + oxygen --------> carbon dioxide + water + energy (ATP + heat)

In cellular respiration during the break down of food in glycolysis and the citric acid cycle, chemical energy (NADH and FADH) are extracted from each cellular process and transported to the electron transport chain built in the inner mitochondrial membrane. The chemical energy harvested from food is transformed into a proton-motive force, a gradient of H+ across the membrane. When this H+ election fall from their gradient via ATP synthase, Chemiosmosis couples this proton motive force to phosphorylate ADP to form ATP.

Which part of the brain is responsible for autonomic functions such as ventilation, cardiac conduction, and vomiting?
romanna [79]

Medulla oblongata, the lowest part of the brain, is responsible for autonomic functions like ventilation, cardiac conduction, and vomiting.

The brain is a very complex organ that controls about every function of the body. It has three main sections:

1. Midbrain

2. Pons

3. Medulla oblongata or Medulla

The medulla oblongata is situated at the lowest portion of the brain. It connects to the pons on the upper side and the spinal cord on the posterior side. It is primarily responsible for controlling some autonomic functions, some of which are essential for human survival, such as ventilation ( pons work together with the medulla and produce rhythms for respiration) and cardiac function. Other functions involve controlling sneezing, hormonal balance, etc.

To know more about medulla oblongata, refer to the following link:
