Answer:

''Mining" probably conjures several images. One familiar scene is of the old West, where prospectors blast the sides of mountains, tunnel through the earth, or pan at a river's edge for gold. Another is of environmental impacts of acid mine drainage from older mines that did not benefit from modern technology and management practices. The common view of mining is of environmental degradation. Few individuals outside the industry are aware of modern mining practices and associated business, environmental, and public policy issues (highlighted in Appendix A) or of how mining companies are responding to today's environmental challenges.

The rate of kidney filtrate formation would normally be dependent upon all of the following factors except __________.

Anton [14]

Answer: blood calcium level

Explanation:

There are several factors affecting the rate of kidney filtrate formation including filtration membrane integrity

, systemic blood pressure, and renal artery/arteriole diameters.

Filtration membrane integrity

: It regulates the filtration of small fitrates and large filtrates. It is very important to handle the osmotic pressure of salts, if it will get damage the filtration will not take place properly.

Systemic blood pressure: systemic blood pressure is very important factor as it affects the Glomerular Filtration Rate (GFR). Low blood pressure or volume due to dehydration can result in decreased GFR.

Renal artery/arteriole diameters: The filtrate move through the renal artery and if it's diameter will increase or decrease it will affect the movement of filtrate. if diameter will decrease it can block the renal artery and can cause a huge damage.

Blood calcium level do not have any role in the kidney filterate formation or renal regulation.

Hence, the correct option is blood calcium level.

Which of the following is characteristics of a steroid hormone action?

aleksklad [387]

Answer:

internal receptor binding

Explanation:

This is because steroid hormones are lipids by nature (usually composed of cholesterol) so they are hydrophobic. This means that steroid hormones can easy pass through the membrane and bind to their internal receptors.

Internal receptors also known as intracellular receptors have DNA binding domain and when hormones bind to them DNA-binding site becomes exposed. Hormone-receptor complex gets into the nucleus and binds to regulatory regions of the DNA. Cellular response is gene expression.

Which scientific field do cognitive psychologists borrow concepts from in explaining how human process information and how the p

marin [14]

Computer Science is the correct answer. Computers were relatively new in the early 1950s. As the field of computer science advanced, they learned how computers send, receive, process, store, and retrieve information. The founder of Cognitive Psychology was able to see that the human mind/brain works in much the same way.
