Answer:
b. dilation of the afferent arterioles and inhibition of renin release.
Explanation:
Atrial Natiuretic Peptide is a hormone which is mainly made and secreted in the atria. It helps in the regulation of blood pressure levels with the use of the kidney through an increase in water and sodium excretion.
The hormone helps in the regulation of blood pressure by ensuring there are dilation of the afferent arterioles to give room for increased flow of blood due to the increased pressure. Study also shows that the enzyme inhibits the release of renin.

Answer:
Sedimentary rocks are types of rock that are formed by the accumulation or deposition of mineral or organic particles at the Earth's surface, followed by cementation. Sedimentation is the collective name for processes that cause these particles to settle in place.
Igneous rock (derived from the Latin word ignis meaning fire), or magmatic rock, is one of the three main rock types, the others being sedimentary and metamorphic. Igneous rock is formed through the cooling and solidification of magma or lava.
Metamorphic rocks were once igneous or sedimentary rocks, but have been changed (metamorphosed) as a result of intense heat and/or pressure within the Earth's crust. They are crystalline and often have a “squashed” (foliated or banded) texture.
Explanation:
Answer:
C. He forgot to add primers.
Explanation:
The major components of a PCR include:
- A sample DNA which is the DNA that needs to be amplified.
- A DNA polymerase, an enzyme that synthesizes new DNA strands from the sample DNA.
- A primer which represents the starting sequence for the new strand of DNA to be synthesized.
- Free nucleotides in form of Deoxynucleoside triphosphates (dNTPs)
<em>The graduate student forgot to add primers which are essential as a starting point on which the synthesis of new DNA strand is based. DNA ligase is not needed for PCR, but during DNA replication.</em>
The correct option is C.
