Answer: Option A.
nephron loop multiplies the concentration of salts in the interstitial fluid of the kidney medulla.
Explanation:
countercurrent multiplier is a system that utilize energy that create osmotic gradients and enable reabsorption of water thereby increase concentration of urine. The countercurrent multiplier uses electrolyte pumps there by making the nephron loop increase the concentration of salts in the interstitial fluid of the kidney medulla because it allows the nephron to reabsorb alot of water and and increase the concentration of urine for excretion while at the same time using as little energy as possible.
Answer:
d) The enzyme changes shape and can no longer speed up the reaction
Explanation:
Enzymes aare protein in nature therefore sensitive to changes in temperature. Most enzymes have an optimum temperature ranging from 35-40°c. As the temperature increases, optimum temperature is reached where the rate of reaction is maximum. Temperatures above 40-63°c denatures the enzymes making them non effective thus the reaction decreases sharply.
