The original source of energy in a food chain is the sun.
<em>In the inner medulla, urea recirculates, creating a greater osmotic gradient. It follows the concentration gradient formed by ADH-sensitive water reabsorption into the interstitial space from the collecting duct. The remaining water is drawn from the descending structures by increased interstitial osmolarity. </em>
<em></em>
<em>To maintain the vertical osmotic gradient, the blood supply to the renal medulla serves as a countercurrent exchanger. - The medullary vertical osmotic gradient is maintained by the vasa recta.</em>
<em></em>
<em>It enhances both water and urea permeability in the inner medullary collecting ducts, allowing urea to diffuse passively down its concentration gradient into the interstitial fluid. This contributes to the osmotic gradient and aids water absorption.</em>

False because it is replaced with other minerals with passage of time...
Here goes your answer to your question and hope I’m not to late
Answer:
B
Explanation:
The distance of the Goldilocks zone ensures that water on the terrestrial planet is maintained in the liquid phase. This is because the distance from the star ensure it receives enough sunlight to keep the planet warm but not too hot that the water exists as vapor. Water in its liquid form is essential for maintaining life like here on earth.
