ANSWER: The origin of the pain is from the intervertebral disks of the lumbosacral spine.

EXPLANATION:

Sciatica is pain in the lower extremity resulting from irritation of the sciatic nerve.

The sciatic nerve is the largest nerve in the body and begins from nerve roots in the lumbar spinal cord in the low back and extends through the buttock area to send nerve endings down the lower limb.

Sciatica is caused by irritation of the root(s) of the lower lumbar and lumbosacral spine. Additional common causes of sciatica include: Lumbar spinal stenosis (narrowing of the spinal canal in the lower back) Degenerative disc disease (breakdown of discs, which act as cushions between the vertebrae).

"The application of evolutionary theory to the debate over modern human origins focuses on which process of evolution?"
sammy [17]

Answer:

The process of gene flow

Explanation:

Gene flow refers to the transference of genetic variation from one population to another. High rates of gene flow are known to modify the allele frequencies and reduce genetic differences among groups. Gene flow limits the process of speciation by combining gene pools form different groups. In humans, for example, it has been shown that migration in the past decreased genetic variation among their populations, thereby leading to the homogenization of genotype frequencies among geographic groups. It is for that reason that in population genetics the concept of 'human races' is now often recognized as erroneous and inadequate.

A plant seedling bends toward sunlight because _____.
olga2289 [7]

Answer:

Light is sn important element in the growth of a plant.

Explanation:

Light is an important factor influencing plant growth. It is a common observation that plants grow towards light. Charles Darwin and his son Francis Darwin first observed that the coleoptiles of canary grass responded to unilateral illumination by growing towards the light source (phototropism). After a series of experiments, it was concluded that the tip of coleoptile was the site of transmittable influence that caused the bending of the entire coleoptile due to more growth on the dark side. That transmittable influence is now thought to be the phytohormone called auxin.
