(iii) Urine is isotonic in proximal convoluted tubule. (iv) Urine becomes more and more hypotonic as it passes through the Henle's loop.

[A] : The hormone aldosterone is secreted by adrenal cortex after the low Na^+ content in blood and the resultant low BP causes the kidney to release renin. [R]: Renin in blood leads to the formation of angiotensin II which causes adrenel cortex to release aldosterone that causes kidney to re- tain Na^+ and, therefore, water is reabsorbed and BP rises.

Which of the following statement is correct about Digestive system of Cockroach? (i) Mouth opens into a short tubular pharynx, leading to a narrow tubular passage called oesophagus. (ii) Gizzard helps in grinding the food particles. (iii) A ring of 6-8 blind tubules called hepatic or gastric caeca is present at the function of foregut and midgut, which secrete digestive juice. (iv) At the junction of midgut and hindgut is present another ring of 100-150 yellow coloured thin filamentous malpighian tubules which help in removal of excretory products from haemolymph.
