Biology
1 answer:
olga2289 [7]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

The correct answer will be option-A.

Explanation:

ADH or anti-diuretic hormone is a chemical messenger produced by the hypothalamus in response to the water level in the blood, maintain blood pressure.

ADH is released in response to the osmolarity of the blood that is a low amount of water which is perceived by the osmorecpetors in neurons. The low level of water leads to the production of ADH from neurons which binds to the ADH receptors in the collecting tubules of the kidneys.

They allow insertion of aquaporins-2 in the membrane which allow re-absorption of the water to maintain the water level of the body.

Thus, option-A is the correct answer.

g If a colony of bacteria starts with 1 bacterium and doubles in number every 20 ​minutes, how many bacteria will the colony con
Lynna [10]

Answer: 2.81 x 10∧14 baterias after 16 hours.

Explanation:

Hi, first we have to find how many 20 minute intervals are in 16 hours.

If 1 hour = 60 min, 16hours = 960 minutes (16 h x 60 min / 1 h)

If we divide the 960 minutes (16 hours) by 20 minutes we obtain 48. (960/48)

There are 48 twenty minutes intervals in 16 hours.

Now we have to apply the exponential growth formula:

P (t) = Po (1 +r) ∧t

Where:  

P (t) = population at time t  

P (0) = initial population (1)

r = growth rate (1)

t = time (48)

Replacing with the values given:

P (t) = 1 (1 + 1) ∧48= 2.81 x 10∧14

2.81 x 10∧14 baterias after 16 hours.
