The muscle that you would find closest to the femoral region of your body is: D. Quadriceps femoris.

<h3>What is the Quadriceps Femoris?</h3>

The quadriceps femoris can be described a large group of fleshy muscles that is found covering the front and sides of the thigh.

The quadriceps femoris consists of the rectus femoris, vastus lateralis, vastus medialis, and the vastus intermedius.

The thigh is also called the femoral region.

Therefore, the muscle that you would find closest to the femoral region of your body is: D. Quadriceps femoris.

Amino acids

Remember that the structure of amino acids have an amino group (NH₃--Cα)

Explanation:

Plants will absorb the radioactive nitrogen compounds as ammonium (NH4+) nitrates (NO3-)and nitrites (NO2-). The radioactive Nitrogen will found in amino acids because the absorbed nitrates, nitrites and ammonium undergo a process called assimilation. The nitrates and nitrites are firstly reduced to ammonia. The ammonia is then assimilation is a pathway called glutamine synthetase-glutamate synthase (GS-GOGAT). IN this pathway the ammonia is incorporated into the amino group of glutamine using glutamine synthase enzyme. The process of transamination of the glutamine then creates many other amino acids.

A guinea pig with giant muscles is bred with a guinea pig with regular muscles. If muscle size in guinea pigs is INCOMPLETE domi

Answer:

Yes, they would be able to produce weak muscled guinea pigs

Please see details below

Explanation:

This question involves a single gene coding for muscle size in guinea pigs. The allele for giant muscles (G) is incompletely dominant over the allele for regular muscles (R). This means that a third intermediate phenotype (weak muscles) is produced in a heterozygous state.

According to this question, a guinea pig with giant muscles (GG) is bred with a guinea pig with regular muscles (RR). The following gametes will be produced by each parent:

GG - G and G

RR - R and R

Using these gametes in a punnet square (see attached image), the following proportions of offsprings will be produced:

GR, GR, GR, and GR

This shows that all the offsprings (100%) have weak muscles, hence, YES is the answer to this question.
