Answer: a. True

Explanation:

Glomerular filtrate is formed by the difference in force of hydrostatic and osmotic pressure. This physical force involves:

Bowman's capsule hydrostatic pressure: This includes the pressure that develops in the Bowman's capsule against the fluid to be filtrated expelled out by the glomerulus.

Glomerular hydrostatic pressure: The glomerulus is the main site of production of filtrate. It is higher than the average blood capillary hydrostatic pressure. It allows the water and solute molecules to be filtrated out of the plasma membrane.

Colloid osmotic pressure: The osmotic pressure which is generated by the large molecules is the colloid osmotic pressure. It is created by the plasma proteins. This pressure draws water from the glomerulus.

Cellular respiration involves the use of ___ and the release of ___
12345 [234]
<span>It involves the use of oxygen and the release of carbon dioxide. Basically, when you breath in, the cells use the oxygen and transfer it through your body and the wasteful byproduct is the carbon dioxide that is released into the air back. Which is good because plants then use that and release oxygen.</span>

I need help with this question somebody answer!!
a_sh-v [17]

Answer:

The essential factor to increase the number of cells in a growing organism is that each and every cell has a complete copy of DNA.

Explanation:

The development and growth of an organism is based on the multiplication of its tissue cells. Cell multiplication in somatic cells occurs through mitosis, a process that allows obtaining<u> two identical daughter cells from a progenitor cell</u>.

DNA contains all the genetic information belonging to a living organism. In the process of mitosis, the DNA of each cell must be replicated so that each daughter cell has a complete copy of the original DNA. This ensures that each cell resulting from mitosis has the same structure and function as the original cell.

The other options are not correct because:

  • <em>The </em><u><em>size of the cell is important</em></u><em>, since each cell has defined characteristics, according to the tissue it must form. </em>
  • <u><em>Each and every cell needs to have a complete DNA</em></u><em>. </em>
  • <em>In somatic cells, </em><u><em>DNA does not vary from one cell to another</em></u><em>.</em>

The appearance of the pink color was due to the movement of a. phenolphthalein molecules from low concentration to high concentr
galben [10]

Answer:

b. base molecules from high concentration through the membrane to low concentration

Note: the complete question is found in the attachment below

Explanation:

The process which enabled the color change in the water and phenology mixture is known as diffusion.

Diffusion is the movement of molecules from regions of higher concentration to regions of lower concentration until equilibrium concentration is attained.

In the setup by the student, the concentration of the base molecules are higher in container than in the test tube. The vaporized molecules of the base therefore, moved through the membrane into the water and phenolphthalein mixture, resulting in the color change to pink in the mixture due to the reaction of the base and the phenolphthalein.
