Answer:
True
Explanation:
One of the edocrine processes the kidney is involved in is called the RAAS (Renin-Angiotensin-Aldosterone System) which is a signaling pathway involved in blood pressure control. It involves a number of hormones:
Angiotensinogen is produced by the liver in response tovarious inflammatory proteins
Renin is a protease produced by the kidneys in response tohypotension,
Angiotensin II increases blood pressure via a number of mechanisms:
Aldosterone acts to increase reabsorption of Na+ and water and increase elimination of K+ and H+ in the distal tubules of the kidneys for ion concentration maintenance
Answer:
The scarab or dung-beetle, and the spider to some ancient symbologists
He's actually a biologist who specializes in organic chemistry. But since that's not in the answer choices, i'd recommend putting Scientist or Dermatologist.
B: Antigens
Explanation: Antigens itself are the invaders that causes an infection or a disease in living organism. They do not protect against invaders in non-specific response as they themselves are the ones who are invading the body.
Digestive enzymes are the enzymes that act on a particular substrate for its action at a particular PH.
Stomach acid is the hydrochloric acid that keeps the PH of the stomach low and prevents the growth of unwanted pathogens.
Lysosomes have digestive enzymes in it. It performs the process of phagocytosis.
The <em>TYR </em>gene is responsible for the production of the enzyme tyrosinase which is crucial in the production of melanin which is primarily responsible for skin pigmentation and for pigmentation of other organs. In albinism, there is mutation of the <em>TYR </em>gene therefore there will be no transcription of DNA to mRNA and no translation of mRNA to the enzyme tyrosinase leading to its deficiency. The deficiency of tyrosinase will eventually lead to the absence of melanin and ultimately, the absence of pigmentation in an organism.
