Answer 12.
An increase in blood flow to the atria of the heart can cause the release of Atrial Natriuretic Factor (ANF). ANF can cause vasodilation (dilation of blood vessels) and thereby decrease the blood pressure. ANF mechanism, therefore, acts as a check on the rennin angiotensin mechanism.
Answer 13.
Action potential stimulates sarcoplasmic reticulum to release Ca2+. The Ca2+ binds with troponin of actin filaments. This causes conformational changes in the troponin molecule and expose the active sites on the fibrous actin molecules. These sites are specific to the myosin heads, which exhibits Mg2+ dependent ATPase activity. Myosin ATPase is normally inactive, but it become active only when myosin head combines with the actin. The energy released by the splitting of ATP by head combines with the actin. The energy released by the splitting of ATP by ATPase is used for cross bridge movement. At the time of relaxation, Ca2+ pumped back into sacroplasmic reticulum. As a result, the troponin molecule become free to mask the active sites.
Answer 14.
a.
- The process of absorption of selected materials from the filtrate into the blood of peritubular capillaries or vasa recta is termed as reabsorption.
- Even though 180 litres of glomeru¬lar filtrate is produced daily, about 99% of this is reabsorbed by the renal tubules.
- Normal volume of urine released -1.5 litres per day.
b. Glucose
Answer 15.
a. Increase in substrate concentration increases the rate of the reaction. The reaction reaches maximum velocity (Vmax). It is not exceeded by any further rise in substrate concentration. At this stage the enzyme molecules are fully saturated. Noactivesite is left free to bind with additional substrate molecule.
b. Temperature and pH.

a. – Granulocytes
b – Basophyl
c – Monoxytes
d – Lymphocytes
e – Resist infections and associated with allergic reactions.
f – Responsible for the immune response of the body.
