<h2>C) option is correct </h2>

Explanation:

  • Glomerular filtration is the process which kidneys uses to filter excess fluid and waste products out of the blood into the urine collecting tubules of the kidney, so that they may be eliminated from the body
  • The rate at which kidneys filter blood is called the glomerular filtration rate
  • The main driving force for the filtering process, or outward pressure is the blood pressure as it enters the glomerulus, this is counteracted to some extent by inward pressure due to the hydrostatic pressure of the fluid within the urinary space, and the pressure generated by the proteins left in the capillaries that tend to pull water back into the circulatory system (colloidal osmotic pressure)
  • The net filtration pressure is the outward pressure minus the inward pressure

C. a rise in blood carbon dioxide concentration

Explanation:

Negative feed back mechanism refers to the control mechanism in which a product of a particular pathway controls the switch on and switch off of that particular pathway.

Since breathing increases the blood oxygen concentration and lowers carbon dioxide concentration and pH. The sensors that regulate the breathing should respond to oxygen concentration as the carbon dioxide is the by-product of respiration and is responsible for increasing blood pH. Thus  increased Carbon dioxide levels in blood is the only factor which will trigger breathing.

uysha [10]

Recording from single neurons in the brain has shown that neurons responding to specific types of stimuli are often clustered in specific areas. These results support the idea of localization of function.

Localization of function is an idea used in neuroscience. It refers to the idea that functions can be attributed to specific regions of the brain (different brain areas are specialized for different functions).
