What hormone promotes active tubular secretion of potassium ions into, along with sodium absorption from, filtrate in the distal convoluted tubule (dct) and collecting ducts?

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: The hormone that promotes active tubular secretion of potassium ions into, along with sodium absorption from filtrate in the distal convoluted tubule and collecting duct is Aldosterone. This hormone is produced by the adrenal gland and acts mainly in the functional unit of the kidney to aid in the conservation of sodium, secretion of potassium, water retention and to stabilize blood pressure. It indirectly regulates blood levels of electrolytes and helps to maintain the blood pH.

The element mercury was first discovered on the Sun.
a. True
b. False

Answers

This statement is FALSE. Mercury was not first discovered in the sun. In fact, mercury or quicksilver was discovered by ancient Indians and Chinese even before 2000 BC. Its ores that are called cinnabar are used in traditional Chinese medicines. However, the effectiveness is not yet justified because of the toxicity of the element. Mercury is also used with thermometers both in clinical and lab uses. Nowadays, the use of it in thermometers is gradually disappearing because of its harmful properties.

How many molecules are in 2.6 grams H4C

Answers

Molar mass of H4C = 1 * 4 + 12 = 16 g/mol

Number of moles:

n = m / mm

n = 2.6 / 16

n = 0.1625 moles

Number of molecules:

number of moles * 6.02x10²³

0.1625 * 6.02x10²³

= 9.78x10²² molecules

hope this helps!
