Loop of Henle concentration gradient

Biology
1 answer:
nadezda [96]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

The Loop of Henle serves to create a concentration gradient throughout the nephron which helps increase the reabsorption of water and certain ions. In the thin descending limb, water is very permeable and is reabsorbed due to the existing concentration gradient in the medulla.

The moon's synchronous orbit around earth is the direct result of the gravitational relationship between the two, causing a ____
PSYCHO15rus [73]
The answer should be Tidal Lock (A), because this is when the event of the orbital position of an object (Earth) is matching the same rotation period as the other object (Moon). When these rotations are the same, the moon will always be facing the same direction as the Earth. I believe you made a typo because Tidal Rock is not even considered to be a term in science. It is not a Solar Tide (that isn't even concerned with the moon facing the Earth), magnetosphere isn't even related to the moon but its magnetic field, and a tidal "bulge" is the complete opposite and has the moon facing the completely opposite direction.

3. How are frog eyes different from human eyes?​
Nastasia [14]

Answer:

Most frogs see well only at a distance, but they have excellent night vision and are very sensitive to movement.This peripheral vision helps them spot predators and prey. Humans and other mammals focus images by changing the shape of the lens. Like a camera lens, frog eyes focus by moving the lens back and forth.

You observe a small, nonpolar molecule near a membrane. how would this molecule likely transport across the membrane? you observ
yaroslaw [1]
It will transported across plasma membrane by simple diffusion. simple diffusion refers to a process by which molecules will pass across plasma membrane without the aid of channels located on the surface of the membrane. since the molecule identified was polar once it enter in hydrophobic region of the membrane it will not stick since this region is non-polar and therefore it will move easily across that region.

Viruses are pathogenic for humans and can cause deadly diseases like AIDS. The pandemic condition of virus mainly depends on the the matter of time. The appearance of the disease condition before the occurrence of the another  disease.

A competent bacterial strain with genes a, b, and c is transformed by a donor bacterial fragment. Cotransformation frequencies f
mina [271]

Answer:

a) Genes b and c are farthest apart.

Explanation:

Transformation occurs when a competent bacteria cell takes up genetic material from the environment. Usually a donor cell donates its gene fragment  which is then incorporated into the chromosome or plasmid of recipient bacterial cell.

Cotransformation occurs when two genes are taken up together by the recipient. The closer the genes lie to each other, more are the chances of them being taken up together. Contransformation frequency will be higher if two genes are close to each other. Here, cotransformation frequencies between three genes are given. Amongst them, the lowest frequency is 0.0064% which is present between gene b and c. Hence, gene b and c are the farthest apart.
