Juxtaglomerular cells of the juxtaglomerular apparatus secrete _______________ when _______________.

Biology
1 answer:
Anna11 [10]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

The correct answer will be option-D

Explanation:

In case the blood pressure drops in the body, the juxtaglomerular cells of the kidney start converting the prorenin into renin. This renin converts inactive angiotensin to angiotensin I which gets converted to angiotensin II by ACE enzyme.

The angiotensin II acts as vasoconstrictor narrowing the vessels and thus increasing the blood pressure. It also stimulates the secretion of aldosterone which increases the reabsorption of sodium ions and help increase the blood pressure of the blood.

Thus, option-D is the correct answer.

Which biological scenario(s) best describes phenotypic plasticity for a trait?
DIA [1.3K]

Answer:

C) II and III only

Explanation:

Option 1 is not an example of phenotypic plasticity because each person is born with their own blood type and this doesn't change based on their environment and behavior.

Option 2 is an example of phenotypic plasticity because a person's red blood cell counts can increase based on their environment, i.e. moving to Denver, CO from Death Valley, CA. The higher elevation and decreased oxygen causes your body to produce more red blood cells.

Option 3 is an example of phenotypic plasticity because one twin can be taller than another because of differing behaviors, environments, etc.
