What does it mean when your GFR is low?

A GFR (glomerular filtration rate - of the kidney) that is just under 60 indicated mild renal insufficiency. If it is under 40, then moderate renal disease is present. If it is under 20, more severe renal disease is the case. When GFR is too low, wastes cannot adequately be cleared and dialysis is needed.


What increases the rate of photosynthesis rises but if it gets too high causes it to drop?

Temperature


How do nephrons in the kidney get damaged?

If your blood pressure is too high, as in the case of someone with hypertension, the glomerulus of the nephron can burst rendering that nephron useless. Without a glomerulus, the nephron cannot achieve pressure filtration, which is one of the main functions of the kidney.


Does the rate of photosynthesis will decrease at a very temperature Why?

The rate of photosynthesis depends on temperature the same way enzymes depend on temperature.Photosynthesis involves enzyme assistance. Enzymes are biological catalysts that speed up chemical reactions.Enzymes are affected by pH and temperature. If the pH is too acidic or basic, enzymes will be denatured (which means they will change shape and not be able to catalyze reactions as well or entirely).Same goes for temperature. If the temperature is too cold or too hot, the enzymes might deactivate, or their efficiency will be inhibited.So, if the temperature of the organism's environment is too high or low, the rate of photosynthesis will decrease because the enzymes aren't working properly.On the other hand, if the temperature is optimal for enzyme activity, the rate will increase, as production is at its high.

What does egfr stand for in comp metabolic panel with egfr?

EGFR stands for estimated glomerular filtration rate. It is a measure of how well the kidneys are functioning in filtering waste from the blood. It is an important indicator of kidney health.


What is inside the glomerular capsule?

I am looking for the same answer too.... so I am not sure if I am right... My book says that simple squamous epithelium is used at the filtration membrane of the kidney i guess that they are implying the glomerular capsule but I am not sure. However it does make sense as simple squamous allows for rapid diffusion of material.
