Answer:
distal convoluted tubule
Explanation:
This is the region of the nephron downstream the macula densa ,which extends the to convulence of the collecting duct.Due to response to mineralocoticoid aldosterone they can be categorised as Distal Convoluted 1 and Distal convoluted 2. This steroid hormones is responsible for homeostatic control of hyperkalemia.
The DCT cells are simple cuboidal epithelium.The stained or pointed part of the image represented this possess this shape,they are therefore portion of DCT. Besides the stained cells are located above the glomerulus ()in the cortex as indicated,therefore they can not be the proximal which must be below the glomerulus, based on the shape ascending and descending loop of Henle (despite located in the cortex too).
The functions of the DCT is in the absorption and secretions of ions(majorly ca+,Na+ and chloride ions.By secreting hydrogen and reabsorbing HC03 ions ,the pH of the urine is maintained.
Answer:
Pteridophytes are vascular plants but they do not produce flowers and seeds which mean their source of reproduction is unknown or hidden.
On the contrary, Spermatophytes as the name indicates, are seed bearing plants. They produced seeds and flowers. Examples are flowering plants, cactus, leather flower, buttercup and may more.
Explanation:
The plasma membrane needs lipids, which make a semi-permeable barrier between the cell and its environment. It also needs proteins, which are involved in cross-membrane transport and cell communication, and carbohydrates, which decorate both the proteins and lipids and help cells recognize each other. Hope this helps :)
D. 99% of all living things that have ever existed are now extinct
The total amount of sea ice showed a decline from 2012 to 2019. The correct option would be D.
<h3>Graphical illustration</h3>
Looking at the graph, from February to June 2012, there is a decline in the amount of sea ice.
A similar decline in the amount of sea ice can be observed in the year 2019.
However, the sea ice levels for the various months in 2012 remain generally above the sea ice levels in the various months in 2019.
Thus, overall, one can say there is a general decline in the ice level from 2012 to 2019.
