The process that is vital in the recycling of carbon, nitrogen and phosphorus is decomposition.
During decomposition, organic matter from dead organisms is broken down. This break down yields simpler and smaller substances from the more complex ones that were present in the organism.
Carbon is released from the carbohydrates and fats that were present in the organism. Nitrogen is released from the proteins that were present and phosphorus is released from the nucleic acids.

If GFR is 125 ml/min, and you are studying a drug that has a renal clearance rate of 20 ml/min, you can conclude that
ahrayia [7]

Answer:

(B). The drug is reabsorbed.

Explanation:

Renal clearance rate determines the excretion of drugs into the urine during excretion. It is used to study the main process associated with a drug's renal excretion.

When the renal clearance rate is lower than GFR (glomerulus filtration rate), the drug is absorbed in the renal tubules. When the renal clearance rate is higher than GFR, the drug is secreted into the urine. When the renal clearance rate is equal to the GFR, the drug is neither reabsorbed nor secreted.

As for given drug, renal clearance is 20 ml/min (less than GFR), this drug will reabsorbed.

Thus, the correct answer is option (B).

Food moves from the mouth to the stomach through a long tube called the trachea. True False
8_murik_8 [283]

Hope that helped! =)
