The code is 11644 and 12052-51.

<h3>What are lesions?</h3>

An aberrant region of tissue inside or outside the body that could expand or alter in appearance, and which might or might not be malignant.

It is possible for lesions to have sources other than underlying diseases. Birthmarks, bug bites, and scars are a few examples.

Cancerous malignant tumors exist (ie, they invade other sites). They spread through the lymphatic or blood systems to distant locations. We refer to this spreading as metastasis. Although the metastatic disease can spread to any part of the body, it most frequently affects the liver, lungs, brain, and bones.

11644 (Excision, malignant lesion including margins, face, ears, eyelids, nose, lips; excised diameter 3.1 to 4.0 cm),

12052-51 (Intermediate repair; 2.5 cm or less; face, ears, eyes, nose, lips, and/or mucous membranes).

51 modifier is for numerous processes

Can you determine which instances reflect a valid experiment or conclusion? Check only those that are valid.
vagabundo [1.1K]

Answer:

Only options a reflects the instances with valid experiment or conclusion.

Quality of any experiment depends upon two things reliability and validity. Reliability is measure of regeneration of results every time an experiment is performed under specific conditions.

Validity is measure of accuracy of results of an experiment. It can be check by two ways: internal validity (checks the design of the experiment) and external validity (checks if the conclusion is the real explanation of the phenomenon).

Now, in marine biologist experiment, he concluded the results only after one breeding season. This makes his results unreliable as it might have happened by chance.

Similarly, in cola experiment the taste was only checked by one candidate i.e. Karl. He might have problem in his taste buds. In addition, the temperature of cola can also affects its taste which is not taken care of in the experiment. Hence, it is not the valid experiment.

Similarly. Jeanette could use more plants for her experiment and Robert just followed only one instruction. He didn't perform any experiment.

Some bacteria living in the ocean floor can turn methane (a gas) into food.
Nesterboy [21]

Answer:

Option A

Explanation:

Only an autotrophic species can convert methane into food.  

Deep below the sea, methane and hydrogen sulfide are found in abundance. These gases get mixed into the sea water.  

Autotrophic bacteria containing phosynthetic pigments oxidize these dissolved gases thereby producing food.  

Hence these autotrophic bacteria’s will be considered as producers as they produce food.  

Thus, option A is correct.
