Becase insulin is not absorbed and secreted.

The value of renal clearance is often used to identify the mechanism of renal excretion of drugs. Renal clearance usually approximates the products of GFR by the unbound product of drug. Usually the drug clearance is proportional to the renal function of the person. 
Insulin can be used to assess renal clearance because kidneys do not alter the amount of insulin that was administered. Therefore, any changes in the insulin collected from urine can signify renal problem.

Answer: The correct answer for the fill in the blank is insulating axons and increasing the conduction velocity of action potentials.

Myelin sheath is an insulating sheath present around the axon of almost all nerve fibers. This insulating sheath contains breaks in between, which are called Nodes of Ranvier. It helps in increasing the conduction velocity of action potential because impulses jump from one Node of Ranvier to the next. Due to this, action potential travels very fast.

According to advocates for the use of genetic engineering, which is an example of the importance of recombinant DNA technology?
Anastasy [175]
Recombinant DNA or rDNA is the general term given to the process of taking a piece of a DNA and merging it with another strand of DNA. The combination of two or more different strands of DNA allows scientists to be able to produce a new and different strand of DNA. Combination of the DNAs of two different organisms is one of themost common recombinant process. The combination of these strands of DNA will give way to the creation of the cure of a lot of genetic diseases in the future like cell anemia, cystic fibrosis and the likes.

During cellular respiration what is the direct source of the energu used in the cells of consumers?
nexus9112 [7]

Answer:

Consumers use chemical energy from the chemical bonds within organic molecules such as carbohydrates, lipids,  and amino acids.

Explanation:

<u>Heterotrophs are consumers</u>; they ingest or absorb organic matter (lipids, carbohydrates, proteins, etc.)  made by autotrophs or producers for their energy consumption. Autotrophs include plants, bacteria, and other photosynthesizing organisms, while heterotrophs include animals, fungi, protists, and bacteria.

Heterotrophs obtain energy from food through the process of cellular respiration. For instance, during aerobic respiration in mitochondria, they break down sugars in the form of glucose into carbon dioxide and water to obtain energy in the form of ATP or adenosine triphosphate.

aerobic respiration:      C6H12O6+ 6 O2 → 6 CO2 + 6 H2O + ≅38 ATP

                                      glucose+ oxygen →  carbon dioxide+ water+ energy

The main purpose of wildlife (movement) corridors is to
Kryger [21]
I believe the main purpose of wildlife (movement) corridors is to connect two otherwise isolated populations. Wildlife corridors are links of wildlife habitat that joins tow or more larger areas of similar wildlife habitat. They are very critical for the maintenance of ecological processes such as allowing the movement of animals and the continuation of viable populations.
