The cup like structure, in which the femur fits into the hip bone is known as Acetabulum.
the acetabulum is referred to a concave shapoed surface of the pelvis, which have a cup like groove. This groove helps in the binding of the femur head to the hip or the pelvic bone.
The round head of the femur gets fits into this cup shaped structure and forms the hip joint. The acetabulum is formed by the contribution of ischium, ilium and the pubis.
Answer:
The characteristic of water that makes this liquid stick to the side of a test tube is called capillarity (Claim).
Explanation:
Water (H₂O) is a polar molecule with the ability to generate van der Waals forces, which is explained by the 4 hydrogen bonds it forms to bind to other substances. The consequence of the forces of the molecular bonds are four properties of H₂O, including surface tension, cohesion, adhesion and capillarity.
- <u>Claim</u>: The characteristic of water that makes this liquid stick to the side of a test tube is called capillarity.
- <u>Evidence</u>: Cohesion and adhesion of water are properties that come from the forces of the molecular bonds of water, and whose effect is the ability of water to wet surfaces and adhere to a tube that contains it, the latter due to capillarity. Capillarity also allows water to rise through the roots and stems of plants, through their thin vascular ducts.
- <u>Reasoning</u>: <u>cohesion</u> in water depends on the force of attraction between H₂O molecules, <u>adhesion</u> is the capacity of H₂O molecules to join other different molecules and —together with <u>surface tension</u>— make H₂O molecules close to the walls of a glass tube adhere to it, which represents capillarity.
The effect of capillarity is more evident when the test tube is of a smaller diameter, although capillarity and adhesion to its walls always exist, and to a greater degree than any other substance.
Answer:
The correct option is D.
Explanation:
In the year 1952, two scientists, Hershey and Chase conducted a series of experiments that helped to establish the fact that DNA is a genetic material. The DNA is located inside the nucleus of living cells in form of chromosomes and its the determinant of traits that are found in living organisms. During protein synthesis, the information in the DNA molecule is encoded into an RNA molecule and this is used in the production of protein, thus, DNA actually directs all the happen in the living cells.
