Some kidney diseases cause a change in the permeability of glomerular capillaries making them more permeable to plasma proteins.

This changes the colloid osmotic pressure, thus drawing water out of the blood and into tissues. The result is

Answer:

The correct answer is edema.

Explanation:

When the capillaries or the tiny blood vessels within the body leak fluid, the condition known as edema takes place. This fluid accumulates in the tissues surrounding it, resulting in inflammation. Edema generally takes place due to mild conditions like consuming more salt, staying or sitting in one position for a long duration, and others.

However, in some situations, edema can also be a sign of an extreme medical condition like kidney disease. During kidney disease, the sodium and additional fluid within the circulation may result in edema. The edema related to kidney disease generally takes place around the eyes and in the legs.

Why might a cell make lots of rRNA but only one copy of DNA?​
marin [14]
RRNA is used to create a ribosome where translation occurs. So,more rRNA mean more translated proteins. But the cell need one Copy of DNA that contain the whole number of genes that the cell need to live or to make mRNA to make proteins.

Question 7(Multiple Choice Worth 4 points)
Maurinko [17]

Answer: The correct option is B (self-replicating molecules, such as RNA and DNA)

Explanation:

The current theory of the process of evolution makes use of present day knowledge of genes and chromosomes to explain the source of genetic variation upon which natural selection works. These genes are discrete units of inheritance which determine hereditary characteristics. All the information for the inheritable characteristics of an individual are contained in these genes.

When a cell divides, the genes duplicate themselves so that each daughter cell has an identical set of genes as the original parent cell. These genes are passed from parents to offspring in the gametes of the parents.

Gene are found in the DNA( Deoxyribonucleic acid) molecules or RNA (Ribonucleic acid) molecules. These molecules are capable of self replication due to a process called mutation. Mutations are random changes in DNA that alter genetic information and sin introduce new characteristics. They may occur

--> in body cells or

--> during gamete formation.

Thus, evolution from vesicles to true cells is through self replicating molecules through the process of mutation which is the raw material for evolution

Living near the ocean is great because the weather is mild. this is because
Zinaida [17]

Hi,

"This is because water has a high heat capacity, which means it absorbs a lot of energy in order to increase in temperature (thus releases a lot of energy when it decreases in temperature). This means water can absorb a great deal of the energy on hot days, keeping the surrounding air cooler, and release a lot of energy to the air on cool days, keeping the air warmer"

Have a great day!

2. How do the effects of insulin resistance compound to decrease cellular responses to insulin?
victus00 [196]

Answer and explanation;

-The insulin receptor itself has decreased kinase activity leading to fewer binding sites for singling effectors to become activated.

Therefore; the signaling effectors are less likely to be activated.

-Additionally,, feedback inhibition decreases signaling effector binding to receptor.

-The lack of activation of these initial signaling effectors prevents any subsequent steps from happening.

-We can thus conclude this by saying that higher insulin concentrations are necessary to obtain the same level of signaling leading to physiological effects that would exist in someone without type-2 diabetes.

-Also the requirement for higher insulin concentration means that the cells that respond to insulin are resistant to its effect.
