The region known as the macula densa is part of excretory system.

More precisely, macula densa is a structure located in the kidney, in the wall of the distal tubule. The macula densa is composed of tightly packed specialized cells on the place where the distal tubule touches the glomerulus.

The role of this structure is to detect changes in concentration of sodium chloride and to send a signal to the afferent arterioles (to change blood pressure) or to the juxtaglomerular cells (renin release).

The blood of an organism is responsible for passing genes from parent to child.
leonid [27]

Answer:

This is false as genes are transferred to a fetus from the reproductive cells(sperm, Egg cells)

Explanation:

This is because humans have 46 chromosomes, however this is comprised of the 23 chromosomes in each sperm and egg cells. This shows that genes are not transferred through the blood but by sperm and egg cells. Also genes and chromosomes are stored in the nucleus of cells, however red blood cells do not have a nucleus further showing that this is false.
