Cake Stands or Cake Salvers. And a few Banana Stands. The cake stands shown below & on the next. page are Early American Pattern Glass. cake stands available from PatternGlass.com. Seen at right is a 'stack' of our Feather pattern. cake stands topped off with a jelly compote. A limited number of patterns were made in. sizes that permit creating such a stack.
The afferent arteriole in this region contains specialised secretory cells (smooth muscle cells) called juxtaglomerular cells, that secrete renin. These cells do two things: 1  They monitor blood pressure, by measuring how much the arteriole wall is stretched.he afferent arteriole in this region contains specialised secretory cells (smooth muscle cells) called juxtaglomerular cells, that secrete renin.

An arteriole /ÉrËtÉªÉri.oÊl/ is a small diameter blood vessel in the microcirculation that extends and branches out from an artery and leads to capillaries. Arterioles have muscular walls (usually only one to two layers of smooth muscle) and are the primary site of vascular resistance.The greatest change in blood pressure and velocity of blood flow occurs at the transition of arterioles to capillaries.rterioles have muscular walls (usually only one to two layers of smooth muscle) and are the primary site of vascular resistance.
