Question:

Which of these is not a property of the renal counter-current multiplier?

It is opposed by the vasa recta.

It exploits the structure of the nephron loop.

It depends on active ion transport to function.

It creates a hyperosmotic interstitial fluid in the kidney medulla.

Answer:

The correct option is;

It is opposed by the vasa recta

Step-by-step explanation:

Counter current multiplication is the process whereby energy is used to build osmotic pressure gradient in the kidney such that water is reabsorbed from the exit tubular fluids reducing the volume of produced urine by increasing the urine concentration while the vasa recta capillaries slows blood flow rate so as to keep the osmotic pressure gradient constant enabling water to be reabsorbed thus concentrating the urine in line with counter current multiplication.

The answer is A

Sine you are subtracting,
x-x=o
1- -8 =9 since subtracting a negative is adding a positive.
So the answer is 9/x-1

Let f(x) = ............

34kurt

Answer:

So first lets find g(-1)

so we plug in the answers:

-2 * -1 ^2 -4

-2*1-4 = -2-4 =

-6

Now lets solve for f(-2)

-2^2-3

4-3=1

-6+1 = 5

3*5 = 15

Im getting answer of 15 but it shows -15 or something, so I dont know if I got it wrong or if its like a dash then the answer.

Compute 33(0.5) - 6(0.5) - 7/2.

lora16 [44]

Hi there! The answer is 10.

$33(0.5) - 6(0.5) - \frac{7}{2}$
We can use PEMDAS (Parenthesis, exponents, multiply, divide, add, subtract) to find our answer.

Since we cannot work inside the parenthesis in this question and since we don't have exponents, we can move on to multiplying.
$16.5 - 3 - \frac{7}{2}$

Our next step would be subtracting. To make the process of subtracting some easier, I'll first change the fraction into a decimal.
$16.5 - 3 - 3.5$

Finally subtract.
$13.5 - 3.5 = 10$

The answer is 10.
~ Hope this helps you!

Which is the least common denominator of 5/6 3/8

Tems11 [23]

To find the least common denominator, or lcd, you have to find the least common multiple, or lcm. To do that you find the multiples of each number until they equal each other. I set up a chart like this,

6 -

8 -

and then I start listing multiples so,

6 - 6, 12, 18, 24,

8 - 8, 16, 24,

I stop after I find a number they are both equal to. So to get to that number I would multiply 8 by 3, and 6 by 4. This gives me 24 as the lcd. If you need the lcd to add the fractions together, then whatever you did to the bottom do to the top. So 5/6 would become 20/24 and 3/8 would become 9/24.

Answer: 24
