Answer:

In the event that the bullet has passed directly from the sternal angle to the back, it is more likely to have lodged in the body of the thoracic vertebra 4 (T4).

Explanation:

The options for this question are:

<em>A. T4 </em>

<em>B. T6 </em>

<em>C. T8 </em>

<em>D. T10 </em>

<em>E. T12</em>

The sternal angle, also called Louis's angle, is a point that serves as an anatomical reference in the human body and serves to count the costal arches, intercostal and intervertebral spaces. Its posterior relationship coincides exactly with the fourth thoracic vertebra, or T4.

Assuming that the bullet - which entered through the sternal angle - was strong enough to follow a linear path without deviating, most likely it has impacted and lodged in the body of T4.

Artist 52 [7]

Answer:

Dominance

Explanation:

Mendel discovered certain principles that governs heredity or inheritance when he conducted experiments. In his experiments, he discovered that an organism receives two copies of a gene called allele, from each parent.

He discovered that one allele of a gene has the ability to mask or suppress the expression of its allele variant in the same gene. He called the allele that masks or is expressed, DOMINANT allele, while the allele that is masked, RECESSIVE allele. Based on this observation, he named his first principle, LAW OF DOMINANCE.

In this case, he crossed a purebreeding round-seeded pea plant and a purebreeding wrinkled-seeded pea plant, he noticed that in the F1 generation, all the offsprings possessed round seeds. This led to the conclusion that the allele for round seeds masks the phenotypic expression of the wrinkled allele in a heterozygous state. Hence, the allele for round seeds is dominant while the allele for Wrinkled seeds is recessive.

How has our understanding of the rock cycle changed over time?
Monica [59]

Answer:

The rock cycle is driven by two forces: (1) Earth's internal heat engine, which moves material around in the core and the mantle and leads to slow but significant changes within the crust, and (2) the hydrological cycle, which is the movement of water, ice, and air at the surface, and is powered by the sun
