Answer:
1. The glomerulus (plural glomeruli), is a network of small blood vessels (capillaries) known as a tuft, located at the beginning of a nephron in the kidney. The tuft is structurally supported by the mesangium (the space between the blood vessels), composed of intraglomerular mesangial cells.
2. Synapse, also called neuronal junction, the site of transmission of electric nerve impulses between two nerve cells (neurons) or between a neuron and a gland or muscle cell (effector). A synaptic connection between a neuron and a muscle cell is called a neuromuscular junction.
3. Thigmotropism is a directional growth movement which occurs as a mechanosensory response to a touch stimulus. Thigmotropism is typically found in twining plants and tendrils, however plant biologists have also found thigmotropic responses in flowering plants and fungi.
4. translocation
5. (1st convoluted tubule labeled at center top.) The proximal tubule is the segment of the nephron in kidneys which begins from the renal pole of the Bowman's capsule to the beginning of loop of Henle. It can be further classified into the proximal convoluted tubule (PCT) and the proximal straight tubule (PST).
these are the answer for your question
Required Answers:-
[1]. Network of capillaries in the nephron is called as
- Glomerulus
The glomerulus is protected by a cup like structure called Bowman's capsule. The function of glomerulus is to filter the blood passing through it. The Semi-Permeable membrane allows only the solvent and smaller molecules.
[2]. Synapse is present between the _____
- Neurons
Neurons are the basic functional unit of nervous system. Some facts we should know about them: They are probably the longest cells found in the animal kingdom which can extend upto 1m. They lose their regenerating power after attaining maturity.
[3]. _____ is the response to touch in plants.
- Thigmotropism
The stimulus responding to touch is known as Thigmotropism. It is basically seen in climbing plants with tendrils. These responses are also seen within flowering plants and fungi.
[4]. Transport of food by pholem is called ____
- Translocation
The process of transporting the food bidirectionally from the leaves to the other parts is known as translocation. In some parts, the food is reserved as stored food
[5]. PCT is present in ______
- Nephron
Proximal covulated tubule is the first convulated tubule is the starting convulated region of tubule (because proximal means nearer to the glomerulus).
