Answer:

The correct answer is ''aids in the passive movement of water out of the tubule''

Explanation:

The nephron loop has a descending branch, which goes to the renal medulla, and an ascending branch, which goes back to the cortex. The nephrons of these kidneys can have loops of Henle of different dimensions. The thin segment of the loop has thin epithelial membranes, its cells are highly permeable to water, but not to solutes. The water that exits from the descending portion of the nephron loop into the medullary space is immediately reabsorbed by the peritubular capillaries, causing osmolality to increase in both the tubular fluid and the medullary interstitial fluid. The characteristics of the descending branch differ from one species to another, the normal thing is that in one way or another, the osmotic concentration of the urine that moves through it is balanced with that of the interstitial fluid.

7. Which molecule is light energy temporarily stored in before being used to make glucose?
BlackZzzverrR [31]

Answer:

The Calvin cycle uses CO2 and the energy temporarily stored in ATP and NADPH to make the sugar glucose. Photosynthesis is a two stage process.

Does an rh negative individual normally contain anti rh antibodies
fiasKO [112]
An Rh negative individual does not contain anti Rh antibodies. Rh- antibodies only develop in cases of pregnancy, miscarriage or a blood transfusion like if you have Rh-negative blood you got AB blood. The Rh-antibodies then work to attack the foreign substance, the RBCs. In the fetus, loss of RBCs means the rise of bilburin and could eventually lead to brain damage and also have low muscle tone.
