Answer:

The correct answer is - Tibia.

Explanation:

The distal end is the position that is far from its point of origin. Distal is the site that is farthest to the center of the body. The opposite of the distal is proximal which means the site is near to the center of the body.

The distal end of the femur is articulate with the bone known as tibia which is form knee joint with kneecap and helps in distributing the body weight to the foot. The head of the femur articulates with acetabulum forms hip joint.

Thus, the correct answer is - the tibia.

The lungs remain inflated because ___________.a. intrapleural pressure is exactly equal to atmospheric pressure b. intrapleural
kkurt [141]

Answer:

Option C,  Intrapleural pressure is less than intrapulmonary pressure

Explanation:

During inspiration, the air enters the lungs due to lower pressure in the intrapulmonary or intra-alveolar  than the atmospheric pressure. During quite respiration, the intrapulmonary pressure reduces to a pressure that is 3 mm Hg lower than that of atmospheric pressure. During quiet expiration, the intrapulmonary pressure rises up to a pressure that is 3 mm Hg higher than that of atmospheric pressure. This leads to lack of air in the intrapleural space thereby producing intrapleural pressure which is lesser than that of intrapulmonary pressure.  

This difference in pressure (i.e higher pressure with in the lungs than the atmosphere)  causes lungs to remain attached to the chest wall and hence looks inflated.  

Hence, option C is correct

A split-brain patient sees something in her left visual field, and must reach behind a screen and select the object from a group
choli [55]

A split-brain patient sees something in her left visual field and must go after a screen and choose the object from a group of objects. she will choose the object perfectly with her left hand.

<h3>What can a split-brain patient do if they see something in the left visual field?</h3>

The fact that split-brain patients can only accurately respond to stimuli in the left visual field with their left hand and to stimuli in the right visual field with their right hand and vocally is another important component of the conventional view.

Patients with split brains can still walk, swim, and ride a bike, which are motor abilities that need both sides of the body and were taught before the onset of their disorder. They can also pick up new skills that require them to move their fingers or hands in parallel or mirror images.

A split-brain patient must reach behind a screen and choose the object from a collection after spotting it in her left visual field. She will use her left hand to make the proper selection of the item.
