Answer:
A nerve impulse
Explanation:
It's important to note that these signals not only connect the brain and spinal cord, but they also send signals to muscles and glands. People talk about nerve impulses when they talk about the electrical signal that goes down an axon.
Scientific information refers to the classification, collection, dissemination, and retrieval of recorded knowledge treated both as a pure and as an applied science. The two features of a scientific information source, which may suggest that the information is not reliable are:
1. The information is based on data that are not peer-reviewed, that is, the information has not been reviewed by the experts in the field, or is not encouraged by an accord of experts in the field.
2. The references are not cited, that is, it not clear or not known that from where the information originated.
The correct answer is B. Peer review
Answer:
Proteinuria occurs when the filtration membrane becomes leaky, allowing proteins to cross. This impacts the blood colloid osmotic pressure by decreasing the osmolarity gradient between the blood and filtrate, thereby reducing the strength of this pressure.
Explanation:
Proteinuria is the medical term that describes the presence of proteins in the urine. <u>Proteins, in normal conditions, are not capable of filtrating through the membrane</u> but, in the presence of a disease, this is possible.
Proteins are responsible for the colloid osmotic pressure in the blood vessels, so when proteins get filtered, this pressure decreases and so does the osmolarity gradient between the blood and filtrate. <u>The decrease in osmolarity gradient also produces a decrease of the colloid osmotic pressure because the strength of the pressure is as big as the gradient between the two compartments</u>.
