Answer:

Grade II

Explanation:

  • When there is either a partial or complete tearing on ligaments that are responsible for supporting the joint of the ankle then it causes an ankle sprain.
  • Based on the exam findings as well as the loss in functionality of the ankle, an ankle sprain can be categorized as grade I, II or III.
  • In the given situation the 14-year-old girl has a grade II ankle sprain which is characterized by an incomplete tear of the ligaments along with moderate pain (as she rates it 5/10), moderate tenderness, loss of range of some functions, and swelling.
  • All of the characteristics of the sprain resemble those of the grade II ankle sprain tear and hence, it is characterized as a grade II ankle sprain.

Which would you expect to be the most active on a cold day?
ira [324]
Biologically thinking, I would say viruses.
Viruses are Inert organisms, they are not influenced by temperature on the opposite of other organisms like humans or bacteria (there are some exceptions in bacteria)
Temperature influences proteins, it could change their conformation and their activity, especially for enzymes.
Temperature decreases the energy flow, due to the decrease of thermal agitation of small molecules like ions in cells.
Viruses don't need active enzymes to live, it just needs host cells, which will be easier on cold days because of the decrease of immune system activity
On cold days you can see an emergence of viruses infections like flu or cold.

Within a gymnosperm megasporangium, which of the following developmental sequences is correct, assuming fertilization occurs? Gr
yan [13]

Within a gymnosperm megasporangium, the following developmental sequences that are correct, assuming fertilization occurs is: megaspore, female gametophyte, egg cell, sporophyte embryo. The last Option (Option D) is correct.

In gymnosperm megasporangium, the meiotic division produces four haploid megaspores from a single cell, three of which generally degenerate. The female gametophyte is formed by mitosis from the surviving megaspore.

Prior to fertilization, the male mature gametophyte needs to be transferred to the female gametophyte for fertilization to take place.

When the nuclei of the sperm encounter the nucleus of the egg cell in gymnosperms, it fuses with the egg nucleus to produce a diploid zygote.

Mitosis occurs in the fertilized egg to initiate the growth of a new sporophyte generation (the multicellular embryo of the seed.)

Therefore, we can conclude that we've understood the mechanism of developmental sequence in the gymnosperm megasporangium.
