If an abnormal rearrangement or alignment of the bones results from a fracture, it is called a __________ fracture.

Answer;

-Displaced fracture

Explanation;

-A fracture is the medical term for a broken bone. Fractures are common; the average person has two during a lifetime. They occur when the physical force exerted on the bone is stronger than the bone itself.

-In a displaced fracture, the bone snaps into two or more parts and moves so that the two ends are not lined up straight. If the bone is in many pieces, it is called a comminuted fracture.

-On the other hand, in a non-displaced fracture, the bone cracks either part or all of the way through, but does move and maintains its proper alignment.

The displaced fracture is caused when the bone breaks into two or more parts and the bones are no longer in alignment with each other. These broken bones becomes abnormally arranged. Normally, these fractures are caused due to trauma. The bone breaks or cracks, and gets displaced from its original position, and then it gets arranged in the abnormal position.

Hence, the blank can be filled with 'displaced'.

How do scientist predict the patterns of heredity?
Nookie1986 [14]

Answer:

The classic tool to predict the patterns of heredity is using a <u>Punnett Square</u>.

Explanation:

In genetics, a trait can be considered dominant or recessive. Since the important discoveries of Gregor Mendel, scientists use a <u>capital letter (D) to indicate a trait is dominant, and a lowcase letter (d) to show a trait is recessive. </u>

Assuming that a scientist knows the genotype for the desired trait they want to predict on the offpsring, a Punnett Square is<u> a reliable tool and a graphic representation that permits them to visualize the potential features of the offspring by showing how the alleles may be exhibited and passed on the offspring and will determine the possible combination of genotypes.</u>

<em>How does it work?</em>

For example, as we can observe in the image below, both parents are homozygous for a trait <em>PP=Purple; pp=white</em>. P is dominant and p is recessive (the color purple will be dominant, and the white will be recessive). So, we put one parent's genotype in the top row (PP) and the other parent's genotype in the left column (pp) and combine one of each letters on the squares, <em>i.e</em>. one of each parent's alleles. Then, we can observe in the results that 3 of the offspring will exhibit the purple color (PP, Pp, Pp) and only one will exhibit the white recessive color (pp); or more properly known as a genotypic ratio of 3:1.

Which statement about control of glycogen metabolism is INCORRECT? Which statement about control of glycogen metabolism is INCOR
GuDViN [60]

Answer:

Glycogen synthase is phosphorylated at only one site.

Explanation:

Glycogen synthase has multiple sites where phosphorylation can occur. Glycogen synthase may have 9 or more sites where it can be phosphorylated as a result of which it's activity is down regulated. It simply means that the regulation of this enzyme does not occur through binary on/off switching, in fact it's activity is modulated over a wide range in response to various signals.

In contrast to glycogen phosphorylase which gets activated when it is phosphorylated at it's serine residues, glycogen synthase gets inactivated by phosphorylation.

As soon as another enzyme GSK3β phosphorylates glycogen synthase, it gets inactivated as a result of which glycogen synthesis halts in the liver.

You are an oxygen molecule floating in the air near a rabbit about to pass into its nasal passageways. Tell the story of your ad
miskamm [114]
During cellular respiration, electrons are produced. The oxygen molecule accepts these electrons, then combines them with protons to make water. This outputs ATP, which is what the rabbit uses for energy. At the end of the process, carbon dioxide is released. From here, the carbon dioxide travels to one of the rabbit's favorite plants. This helps plants breathe. Sunlight penetrates the leaves of the plant, which are generating into sugar molecules within the chloroplast. The substance is known as chlorophyll. Electrons make the chemical process go more quickly. At the end, the plant releases oxygen back to the rabbit.

What is Respiration?
diamong [38]
  • Biology Definition: Respiration is a chemical reaction that happens in all living cells. (Both plant cells and animal cells). Respiration is the way that energy is released from glucose so that all the other chemical processes needed for life can happen.

  • Normal definition: The action of breathing, also called ventilation.
