Answer:

The correct answer is 3rd statement.

Explanation:

A kind of sweat gland that discharges water from the surface of the body at the time of high internal temperatures are known as exocrine sweat glands. This water gets evaporates and results in the cooling of the skin surface. When the temperature of the body enhances, the sweat glands along with water also discharges electrolytes from the surface of the body.  

The sweat glands also exhibit antibacterial properties, as they discharge dermcidin that interferes with the sticking of the microbes with the skin surface. The exocrine sweat glands do not secrete lipids, thus, they lack the tendency to condition the skin surrounding it. Hence, the given statement 3 is incorrect.

Describe the neural and renal mechanisms that control blood pressure.
Andrei [34K]

Answer:

The autonomic nervous system is the main neural regulator of circulation and blood pressure in the short term and beat by beat and exerts its function through various reflexes that regulate vasomotor tone, heart rate and cardiac output. At the renal level, the renin–angiotensin–aldosterone system is possibly the most important in the maintenance of arterial homeostasis.

Explanation:

Blood pressure is regulated by a series of interrelated autonomic systems and humoral reflexes, which continually adjust the determining elements of the system (heart rate, stroke volume, total peripheral resistance and circulating volume).The effective circulating volume is controlled by a series of reflex systems, which obtain information about the perfusion pressure (baroreceptors in the carotid bulb and aortic arch), plasma osmolarity (hypothalamus) and urinary sodium (distal tubule).The kidney has its own self-regulatory mechanisms. The reduction in renal blood flow is detected at the level of the mesangial cells of the juxtaglomerular apparatus, starting the renin-angiotensin system. The increase in angiotensin II produces on the one hand local vasoconstriction, and on the other hand stimulates the production of aldosterone by the adrenal cortex with the consequent tubular reabsorption of sodium and water.Antidiuretic hormone or vasopressin (released from the hypothalamus by stimulation of arterial baroreceptors and also by stimulation of angiotensin II) also acts at the renal level, which acts as a powerful and water-saving vasoconstrictor in the distal tubule.

yuradex [85]

Due to huge effect use of Drought the population of animal get extinct.

Explanation:

Droughts can have a severe impact on the extinction of animal populations, specifically in Arid and Semi environments. Different type of climate changes can accelerate the dying of particular species or animal population.  

For extinction of population and also species Droughts play vital role. Droughts are one of such severe climatic change that leads to the extinction of species. Some life traits of specific Species make it vulnerable to drought.
