Which is not a property of countercurrent multiplication?

Question:

Which of these is not a property of the renal counter-current multiplier?

It is opposed by the vasa recta.

It exploits the structure of the nephron loop.

It depends on active ion transport to function.

It creates a hyperosmotic interstitial fluid in the kidney medulla.

The correct option is;

It is opposed by the vasa recta

Step-by-step explanation:

Counter current multiplication is the process whereby energy is used to build osmotic pressure gradient in the kidney such that water is reabsorbed from the exit tubular fluids reducing the volume of produced urine by increasing the urine concentration while the vasa recta capillaries slows blood flow rate so as to keep the osmotic pressure gradient constant enabling water to be reabsorbed thus concentrating the urine in line with counter current multiplication.

solution:

the given function is ,

      =

the three roots of this quadratic function is , 0 ,8 and 10.all the roots are real and rational.

if a quadratic equation is of the form ,

sum of the roots = a + b +c= 0+8+10=18=  

product of roots taken two at a time = a b + b c+ c a = 0+80+0=80 =  

product of roots = a b c = 0=  

there are 11 doors in a hall starting from 0 to 11.the entry in the hall is permitted through gate number 0 and exit is allowed through only gate number 8 and 10.so, three roots(0,8,10) of quadratic function is given by entry and exit route of this hall.
