<h2>C) option is correct </h2>

Explanation:

  • Glomerular filtration is the process which kidneys uses to filter excess fluid and waste products out of the blood into the urine collecting tubules of the kidney, so that they may be eliminated from the body
  • The rate at which kidneys filter blood is called the glomerular filtration rate
  • The main driving force for the filtering process, or outward pressure is the blood pressure as it enters the glomerulus, this is counteracted to some extent by inward pressure due to the hydrostatic pressure of the fluid within the urinary space, and the pressure generated by the proteins left in the capillaries that tend to pull water back into the circulatory system (colloidal osmotic pressure)
  • The net filtration pressure is the outward pressure minus the inward pressure

bulgar [2K]

Answer:

The second picture showing  big rocks with the gaps between where they touched empty.

Explanation:

The figure shown in picture 2 will be the most porous as it does not comprise of any blocking particles. I t will be well sorted and will allow small molecules to easily pour through it.

On the other hand, the other figures like figure 3 will not have much porosity as the path is blocked by many large and small rocks in the image. Hence, it is not the correct option.

If you were able to walk into an opening cut into the center of a large redwood tree, when you exit from the middle of the trunk
strojnjashka [21]
If you were to cross a large redwood tree, like for an example a sequoia, from the middle of the trunk you would first cross the annual rings, indicators of the trunk growth over the years, then after that you would cross the phloem, the ''piping'' of the tree responsible for the transport of water throughout the tree and in the end you would cross the tree's bark, the protective layer on surface of the trunk.
