Remember that the glomerulus is the initial filtering sieve of the nephron.
Mars2501 [29]
Filtration rate = 125 mL/minute = 0.125 L/min
Minutes in a day = 24 hours x 60 minutes per hour
Minutes in a day = 1440 
Total filtrate per day = 0.125 x 1440 = 180 L

Number of 2 L bottles to be filled = 180 / 2
= 90 bottles

This value is very large and we do not produce this much urine in a day. This means a portion of the fluid is being reabsorbed.

Absorption.

Under what conditions does the trp repressor block transcription of the trp operon? (A) when the repressor binds to the inducer
Brilliant_brown [7]

The trp repressor blocks transcription of the trp operon (B) when the repressor binds to tryptophan.

trp operon or the tryptophan operon codes enzymes for the amino acid tryptophan. The operon is on when the tryptophan is low in amount whereas the operon is off when the tryptophan is low in amount. The operon is an assimilation of five genes.

Repressor is a small protein that is supposed to prevent the synthesis of proteins. It does so binding to the operator gene. Therefore, presence or absence of repressor is a determining factor for an operon to be on or off.

Which observation would be the best evidence of the water cycle
Troyanec [42]

Founder effect or population bottleneck refer to events which bring about reduction in the genetic variability of a particular specie population. Such events typically drastically reduce the gene pool of the population and produce a smaller number of population with less genetic diversity. An example of a population bottleneck is a genocide event. Such event will destroy a large percentage of the affected population leaving only a smaller population with less genetic diversity. i hope these helps.
