Answer

There are two routes for eliminating solutes from the circulation. The first is filtration, which transfers solutes directly from the blood to the tubular lumen, and the other is tubular secretion, which transfers solutes from peritubular capillaries to interstitial fluid, and from there through tubular cells into the tubular lumen.

- Glomerular filtration is the first route for solutes to enter tubular lumen. Capillary hyrdrostatic pressure facilitates filtration of solutes into Bowman's capsule.
- The soutes filtered include : Glucose, amino acids, drugs, hormones, NaCl, water

- Tubular secretion is another route for solutes to enter tubular lumen. Solutes such as H+ ions, ammonia, creatinine, urea are secreted into the tubule lumen by peritubular capillaries.
The pathway is : Pertubular capillary Interstitial fluid Cells of tubular wall Tubular lumen.

Option B) Filtration; Tubular secretion

There are two routes to get from the student dorms to class - a long route, which is scenic, and a short route, which is not scenic. You want to study whether the route that the students choose to take is independent of the weather (in the context of the table, this will mean whether X and Y are independent), and you generate the accompanying table of probabilities. Rainy (Y=0) Sunny (Y =1) Total Long (X=0) 0.1 0.3 0.4 Short...

Suppose when searching for a large prime, our first step is to sieve by eliminating the first n primes. How large should n be to speed up our search by a factor of 10? This requires careful thought and inventiveness before doing a computation. How to approach this: Eliminating all odd numbers speeds up our program by a factor of 2, since we've eliminated half of the choices that are composite. If we also immediately disqualify multiples of 3, then...
