Answer:

A large connective tissue structure, composed mostly of fat, that hangs like an apron from the lateral and inferior borders of the stomach describes the greater omentum

Explanation:The greater omentum is the larger of the two peritoneal folds. It consists of a double sheet of peritoneum, folded on itself so that it has four layers.

The functions of the greater omentum includes:

- fat deposition: it consist of fat storing cells known as adipose tissue.

-immune contribution : it helps in immune response as it contains macrophages.

-it also physically limit the spread of intraperitoneal infections.

Answer: It describes the greater omentum.

Explanation:

Greater omentum are prominent peritoneal fold or large connective tissue structure, consist of majorly fat that hangs down like an apron from stomach anterior and transverse colon . It is double fold that connects the stomach to the abdominal wall. It play role in fat deposition and limit intraperitoneal infections. Greater omentum surrounds the fine arteries and a rich lymphatic network.

Answer:

1. First calculate the distance of the map for trace (eg) and spastic mutation (sps); Recombinant frequency:

vg + sps + vg sps + = 99 + 97 = 196

we are going to divide 196 by 650 (total descendants) = 0.3.

in the next step we are going to calculate the recombinant frequency 0.3 * 100 = 30 mu or cM or 30%

this shows that there is an association between vestige (eg) and spastic mutation (sps) since the recombinant frequency is less than 50%.

The squareness test is not valid because the combining frequency is far from 50%.

2. Results:

1. Genes are linked.

3. The test rejected the independent assortment law because it is not true that there is a 1: 1: 1: 1 relationship between descendants
