The term glomerulonephritis (GN) covers a group of conditions in which there is injury in the glomerulus, the filtering unit of the kidney. This can occur either as a primary glomerular disease, or secondary to drugs, infections or tumours (see Secondary Glomerular Disease, pp 464â466 of this issue).
As insects are spiders' main prey, it is likely that they would impose strong selectional forces on the foraging behavior of spiders. Most commonly found in the sheet-web spider families, some webs will have loose, irregular tangles of silk above them.
A: Spiders can thrive and live in almost any place: on the edges of the ocean, on plants, under rocks, in trees, in caves and even over the water, according to Australian Museum. The only places that spiders cannot inhabit are the oceans, the highest mountains and the polar regions. Spiders are seen on almost every continent.
