What role do the kidneys play in blood flow?

Biology
2 answers:
Alla [95]4 years ago
8 0

The kidneys are the filtering devices of blood. The kidneys remove waste products from metabolism such as urea, uric acid, and creatinine by producing and secreting urine. Urine may also contain sulfate and phenol waste and excess sodium, potassium, and chloride ions. The kidneys help maintain homeostasis by regulating the concentration and volume of body fluids. For example, the amount of H+ and HCO3 - secreted by the kidneys controls the body's pH.

What must be true if prokaryotes evolved into eukaryotes by absorbing other cells
erastova [34]

Answer:

The correct option is 'the ability to absorb other cells gave some prokaryotes a survival advantage.'

Explanation:

The scientists have brought forward the theory of endosymbiosis which explains how eukaryotic cells evolved from prokaryotic cells. According to this theory, the scientists claim that the organelles found today in the cells, once existed as individual prokaryotic cells. These organelles were engulfed by larger prokaryotic cells with time and hence, the eukaryotic cells evolved from these prokaryotic cells. The larger prokaryotes might have engulfed the smaller cells for survival.
