Answer: The correct answer to the question is option C
OSTEOARTHRITIS.
The client has a degenerative form of disease that is evidenced by osteoarthritis.
Explanation: Osteoporosis is otherwise known as degenerative joint disease.
In a healthy joint,a protective cartilage cushions the end of bones(articulating bones) and as well acting as a shock absorber.
In osteoarthritis,these cartilage that acts as a cushion to the bones wears down down or generates with time exposing the joint and the bones predisposing them to mild to moderate friction that occurs as a result of mobility of the bones/joint.
Osteoarthritis mostly affect joints of the hips, hands,spine and knees.
Some of the common symptoms of Osteoarthritis are;pain in the joints of the hands,knees,hips,lower back and neck with crackles,stiffness and tenderness of the joints which often results to difficulty in walking and deformity of the joint if left untreated.
Answer:
Mammals undoubtedly play an important role in ecosystems by providing essential services such as seed dispersal, pollination and regulating insect populations, and reducing disease transmission [20–22] and there is some evidence that some groups act as indicators of general ecosystem health [23].
Explanation:
Answer:
E) can usually make enough ATP for skeletal muscle function
Explanation:
Glycolysis is the main process by which cells obtain energy. During glycolysis, glucose is fully oxidized to obtain ATP, this is the 'fuel' for cellular function. Glycolysis is oxygen dependant, meaning that in order to successfully complete the process, enough oxygen must be available.
There are a few exceptions in which glycolysis is unable to provide enough ATP, an example is strenuous exercise. In this case the speed of oxygen consumption is very high, therefore at some point the oxygen intake is not enough. There are several mechanisms that regulate the production of ATP. In case of strenuous exercise, different process are activated to supply the cell with the necessary energy to keep on functioning.
Among the latter mentioned processes, there is anaerobic production of the oxidation of lactate, that does not require oxygen. Other example is the usage of creatine phosphate to obtain energy. Therefore, muscular cells have many ways of obtaining energy, but this secondary mechanisms are only activated in specific situations.
Answer:The predicted population of brain coral in a reef covering 120m² is ; ≈ 40
First step : Calculate the value of the default population density
Population density = population size (dive 1) / total area
= 4 / 12 = 0.33
Total area ;
∑ Area of each reef quadrant = length * width = 2 * 2 = 4m²
∴ Total area = 4 + 4 + 4 = 12m².
Final step : Determine the value of the predicted population of brain coral
Population density = ( predicted population ) / predicted area
0.33 = ( pp ) / 120m²
∴ Predicted population ( pp ) = 0.33 * 120
= 39.6 ≈ 40 brain corals
Hence we can conclude that the predicted population of brain coral is 40
