Answer:

Option D

Explanation:

The three types of cytoskeleton vary in their size and their compositions. The smallest of the cytoskeleton is the microfilament made up of monomers actin filaments and measuring about 8nm external diameter.

The next is the intermediate filament measuring about 10nm external diameter. Microtubules are the thickest and are mostly made up of polymers of alpha and beta tubulin.

Answer: Option D.

Explanation:

Filament system refers to the structure or long chain of protein present in the cell. The cell shape is formed by three polymer system that make up the cytoskeleton. These three types are microfilament or actin filament, intermediate filaments and microtubules.

The microfilament is the thinnest of the cytoskeleton and it is found in the cytoplasm of eukaryotic cells. It provide support for the cell.

Intermediate filaments provide mechanical support for the cell plasma.

Microtubules are hollow that form the cytoskeleton, they give shape and support to the cell.

It should be microfilament ( thinnest), intermediate filaments ( thick) and microtubules ( thickest).

Please place the following vessels in the correct order to represent the arterial circulation leading up to the glomerulus.
Ymorist [56]

The following vessels are connected as below:

aorta ->renal arteries ->segmental arteries ->interlobular arteries ->arcuate arteries ->cortical radiata ->afferent arteries ->glomerulus.

1) aorta : arises from heart which carry blood from heart to the rest of the body

2) renal artery :it arises from the aorta which carry blood to kidney .it carry unfiltered blood .

3)segmental arteries : it arises from renal artery .it has  5 branches or segments.

4)interlobular arteries : it arises from segmental arteries. the interlobular arteries pass directly outward between the medullary rays to reach the fibrous tunic ,where they end in the capillary network of this part.

5)Arcuate arteries: it arises from interlobular arteries .it is also known as arciform arteries, are vessels of the renal circulation. they are located at the border of the renal cortex and renal medulla.

6) cortical radiata: it arises  from arcuate arteries.

7) afferent arteries: it arises from interlobular arteries and also connects to glomerulus. they are a group of blood vessels that supply the nephrons in many excretory systems .they play a important role in regulation of blood vessels.

8) glomerulus : it connects from afferent arteries.it is the filtering unit of kidney ,is a specialised bundle of capillaries that are uniquely situated between two resistance vessels.

Disclaimer: the given question is incomplete means it contains incomplete data .the correct question is given below.

Question: Please Place The Following Vessels In The Correct Order To Represent The Arterial Circulation Leading Up To The Glomerulus. Aorta Interlobar Artery Segmental Artery Afferent Arteriole Cortical Radiate Renal Artery Arcuate Artery Glomerulus

Please place the following vessels in the correct order to represent the arterial circulation leading up to the glomerulus.

Aorta

Interlobar artery

Segmental artery

Afferent arteriole

Cortical radiate

Renal artery

Arcuate artery

Glomerulus
