There are no choices available, however, the possible environmental risk that this situation can give is the depletion of ground water. The amount of water being pumped out from the ground will take time to replenish, hence emptying ground water and possibly mixing sediments trapped inside the cavern of water. This situation can eventually contaminate new ground water that will seep in into the cracks that were dug for irrigation.

What is the primary function of the juxtaglomerular complex?
Vsevolod [243]

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.

why is it a good idea for a bacterial cell to be abel to use glucose first as an energy source then switch to lactose
olchik [2.2K]

Answer:

Due to less steps and requires less energy.

Explanation:

The bacterial cell is able to use glucose first as an energy source then switch to lactose because glucose requires less steps and less amount of energy for the break down as compared to lactose. If lactose is the only sugar available to the bacterial cells, then bacterial cells will use it as energy source for the production of energy. In order to use lactose, the bacteria must express the lac operon genes, which encode the main enzymes for lactose uptake and metabolism.
