The blood is collected in heparinized capillary tubes to prevent clotting. Heparin is a blood thinner and this anticoagulant is produced naturally by mast cells and basophils. But heparin can not dissolve or break the preformed clots.
The mutation will occur on the X chromosome. Males are more susceptible to sickle cell amenia because they only carry one X chromosome instead of two when compared to a set of female chromosomes. If a female only has the mutation on one chromosome the disease will not appear. However, when a male recieves the mutation on the X chromosome, the disease would appear, because they only have one X chromosome.
Answer:
B) The "lub-dub" sound originates from blood turbulence through the heart.
Explanation:
The systole and diastole in the heart produce the lub and dub sound in the heart.
The systole represents the contraction of both left and right ventricles and pumps the blood to the body and the right ventricle to the lungs. This involves the opening and closing of the valves. The closing of the atrioventricular valves produces lub sound.
At the end of the systole or ventricular contraction or when the blood has been pumped to the aorta and the pulmonary valves then the semilunar valves present in the aorta and pulmonary closes. This produces a sound dub.
Therefore,lub dub is associated with the physical contraction of the heart but not the turbulence of the blood.
Thus, the selected option is the correct answer.
Answer:
C. Independent variable
Explanation:
The independent variable in an experiment is the variable that the experimenter manipulates or changes in order to effect a measurable response in the dependent variable.
According to this question, an experiment is conducted to determine what concentration of disinfectant is most effective in killing bacteria. The independent variable is the CONCENTRATION OF DISINFECTANT because it is the variable being changed or manipulated.
