A human kidney filters about 200 liters of blood each day. Approximately two liters of liquid and nutrient waste are excreted as

urine. The remaining fluid and dissolved substances are reabsorbed and continue to circulate throughout the body. Antidiuretic hormone (ADH) is secreted in response to reduced plasma volume. ADH targets the collecting ducts in the kidney, stimulating the insertion of aquaporins into their plasma membranes and an increased reabsorption of water. If ADH secretion is inhibited, which of the following would initially result?
a) Number of aquaporins would increase in response to the inhibition of ADH.
b) The person would decrease oral water intake to compensate for the inhibition of ADH.
c)Blood filtration would increase to compensate for lack of aquaporins.
d) Person would produce a greater amount of dilute urine.

Answer:

The correct option is D. Person would produce a greater amount of dilute urine.

Explanation:

Antidiuretic hormone (ADH) can be described as a hormone that is produced by the hypothalamus part of the brain for the regulation of water. The amount of water that is reabsorbed by the collecting ducts is enhanced by this hormone. is also involved in increasing the amounts of aquaporins in the plasma membrane.

The absence of this hormone will cause less reabsorption of water. Hence, more amount of water would be released in the urine.

A population of rabbits inhabits an island that has an active volcano. The volcano erupted and covered the island destroying mos
crimeas [40]

The population of rabbits on the volcanic island in big portion will dye out, some as a direct consequence from the volcanic eruption, and some because of the lack of food resources. Because the food will be much more scarce, the rabbits will become much smaller, thus needing less food, and also the reproduction process will be much slower and delayed, and as the island recovers from the eruption, the small remaining population of rabbits will start adapting on the new food sources. Once the rabbits are adapted to the new food resources their population will start rising again.

If you were designing a lander to work on mars, where on earth would you test it? Why?
emmasim [6.3K]
Hmm good question. Well I would have to test it for where there are no living life. I would have to build another NASA in the County because there is plenty of room there. Mars is made out of Dusty Crust that is about 30 miles thick. And let's say that the desert's Dusty Crust is about 5 miles - 15 miles thick. That will give about the same amount of surface that mars has. So we would know what to build for a perfect lander to work on Mars. This isn't much but it is something.
