I: | Cartilaginous fishes are ammonotelic. |
II: | Mammals are ureotelic. |
III: | Land snails are uricotelic. |
Assertion (A): | It is important that the proximal convoluted tubule of the nephron is lined with simple cuboidal brush bordered epithelium. |
Reason (R): | Maximum reabsorption from the ultrafiltrate takes place in this segment of the nephron. |
1. | Both (A) and (R) are True and (R) correctly explains (A). |
2. | Both (A) and (R) are True but (R) does not correctly explain (A). |
3. | (A) is True; (R) is False. |
4. | Both (R) and (R) are False. |
Assertion (A): | As the filtrate moves down the descending limb of Loop of Henle, it gets concentrated. |
Reason (R): | The descending limb of loop of Henle is permeable to water but almost impermeable to electrolytes. |
1. | Both (A) and (R) are True and (R) correctly explains the (A). |
2. | Both (A) and (R) are True but (R) does not correctly explain the (A). |
3. | (A) is True; (R) is False. |
4. | Both (A) and (R) are False. |
I: | The flow of filtrate in the two limbs of Henle’s loop is in opposite directions and thus forms a counter current. |
II: | The flow of blood through the two limbs of vasa recta is also in a counter current pattern. |
III: | Although there is proximity between the Henle’s loop and vasa recta, yet they do not form a counter current. |
I: | facilitates water reabsorption from latter parts of the tubule, thereby preventing diuresis. |
II: | is a potent vasodilator. |
Assertion (A): | Atrial Natriuretic Factor (ANF) mechanism acts as a check on the renin-angiotensin mechanism. |
Reason (R): | An increase in blood flow to the atria of the heart can cause the release of ANF. |
1. | Both (A) and (R) are True and (R) correctly explains (A). |
2. | Both (A) and (R) are True but (R) does not correctly explain (A). |
3. | (A) is True; (R) is False. |
4. | Both (A) and (R) are False. |
1. | An adult human excretes, on an average, 1 to 1.5 litres of urine per day. |
2. | The urine formed is slightly basic (pH-7.5). |
3. | On an average, 25-30 gm of urea is excreted out per day. |
4. | Presence of glucose (Glycosuria) and ketone bodies (Ketonuria) in urine are indicative of diabetes mellitus. |
1. | Platyhelminthes | 2. | Annelids |
3. | Aschelminthes | 4. | Echinoderms |
