The kidney filters potentially toxic substances in the blood, and thus “clears” the blood of those substances. this clearance function is dependent upon and proportional to the diffusion gradient of the substance across filtering capillaries, i.e. if the concentration of the substance is doubled, twice as much will be cleared from each ml of blood that is filtered. suppose that the body produces a constant amount of a substance x per unit of time. the kidneys eliminate substance x at a rate directly proportional to the concentration of the substance and the volume of blood cleared each minute (c): elimination = c × [x], where [x] is the steady-state concentration of substance x. imagine an individual with an initial concentration of x equal to [x]0 who develops kidney disease. her baseline clearance c0 drops to one half of the original (½c0). what is the new steady state concentration of x? (for simplicity, assume that substance x is 100% filtered by the kidney).

How does the fossil record provide evidence that the modern whale evolved from the anthracotheres? a) the modern whale looks like their ancestor the anthracotheres. b) the modern whale has all of the same structures as their ancestor. c) there is not enough evidence to suggest the the modern whale evolved from the anthracotheres. d) the anthracotheres has a structure that is still present in the modern whale, but is no longer of use to the modern whale.
