Answer:
The correct answer will be-
1. decrease in blood volume
2. secretion of renin from juxtaglomerular apparatus
3. production of angiotensin II
4. secretion of aldosterone
5. sodium reabsorbed from distal tubules and collecting ducts
Explanation:
The RAAS pathway or Renin-angiotensin II-aldosterone pathway gets activated in the human body to maintain the osmolarity and blood volume.
When the receptors in the blood sense the low volume of water in the body sends signals to the brain which activates the secretion of the renin from the juxtaglomerular cells. Renin helps converts the inactive angiotensin to angiotensin I and II which help reabsorption of sodium ions. This activates the production of aldosterone which increases the reabsorption of the sodium ions into distal and collecting ducts.
I believe the answer to your question is C, correct me if i'm wrong :)
Answer:
Interactions between biotic and abiotic components regulate carbon dioxide and water levels.
Explanation:
Abiotic factors include temperature, water, humidity, etc; while biotic factors include all the forms of life. These factors interact in the ecosystem to maintain its homeostasis. For example, during the photosynthesis, plants use the energy of the sun water and carbon dioxide to produce food (carbohydrates) and this process converts carbon dioxide (CO2) to oxygen, which is critical for maintaining the homeostasis of the ecosystem.
The direct source of energy to move the sailboat is probably wind, since wind is what pushes the sail of the sailboat, which is what propels the sailboat forward.
Hope this helps!
