Answer: Option A.
nephron loop multiplies the concentration of salts in the interstitial fluid of the kidney medulla.
Explanation:
countercurrent multiplier is a system that utilize energy that create osmotic gradients and enable reabsorption of water thereby increase concentration of urine. The countercurrent multiplier uses electrolyte pumps there by making the nephron loop increase the concentration of salts in the interstitial fluid of the kidney medulla because it allows the nephron to reabsorb alot of water and and increase the concentration of urine for excretion while at the same time using as little energy as possible.
The answer is; glucose
It is a 6 carbon ring simple sugar and is the most abundant monosaccharide in the body. Its levels in the body are referred to as blood sugars. Larger carbohydrates consumed in the diet are broken down to glucose utilized in respiration (Glycolysis and Krebs cycles) to produce the energy required by the cells. Plants, on the other hand, manufacture carbohydrates in photosynthesis.
Controlled population growth.
Explanation:
US is a highly developed country and it has expansive infrastructure and highly mechanized agricultural equipments. So first option is not a choice. Second, access to chemical fertilizers and pesticides in a country with such advanced agriculture infrastructure is very easy. Third US is well known for using GM crops.
US does not have a controlled population growth because if not the birth rate then migration of people to US is a major concern for that country. Thus, this will be a correct choice for the given question.
The only possible phenotype is large ears.
This is because using a punnet square reveals that each option has a dominant allele of large ears, leaving no room for the recessive trait of small ears.
Hope this helps!
