  • Colonoscopy

As the name indicates, it is the examination of the colon (the lowest portion of GIT). It allows the examiner to view the whole large intestine. It can be done for the screening of colon cancer, To know the cause of changes in bowel habits, weight loss,  pain,  bleeding,  GIT ulcers,  tissue inflammation,  constipation or diarrhoea.

Sigmoidoscopy is a procedure that helps the doctor to view inside of a sigmoid portion of the colon because sigmoid colon sometimes requires closed inspection. Sigmoidoscopy is done to check any abnormal cell growth,  GIT ulcers, polyps, abdominal pain,  bleeding,  constipation or diarrhoea.

How can I prove Creationism is true in an essay?
snow_tiger [21]
“In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.” (Genesis 1:1, NIV Bible). All around the world, there is controversy over what is right and what is wrong when it comes to Creation versus Evolution. I strongly believe in Creation. Starting with the first and strongest piece of evidence brought forth by these scientists is that apes used to roam the earth and then later on developed into humans. Evolutionists believe that all human life forms originated from apes, because humans and chimps share close matching Y-Chromosomes. But recent studies have shown that they are actually quite different. This is the first way Creationists can prove Evolutionary Scientists wrong. Another aspect of Evolutionists idea of humans coming from apes is what they call “fossil men”. (matthewmcgee.org). Fossil men are the skeletal remains of humans recovered by Evolutionary archeologists. In order to uphold their evidence of humans coming from apes, when reconstructions of the skulls were being performed, the performing artist would ad chimp-like features that didn’t exist, as a way to help them prove their case. But when the same skulls were examined by unbiased scientists, they found many astonishing differences. In textbooks, Neanderthals are always drawn with excessive body hair, causing them to look like chimps. But when studied, scientists found that the soft parts of the face of these figures left no markings on the skull, proving that they really didn’t look like that. They also stated that with these chimp-like features that the skulls possessed, the hunched posture proved without a doubt that they were chimps. But later on, after examining the skeleton again, evidence of arthritis was found, explaining away all of the Evolutionary scientists theories on Neanderthals. But the truth of Creation is that “So God created man in His own image, in the image of God He created them, male and female, He created them.” (Genesis 1:27, NIV Bible). Creationists believe, and can prove through the teachings in God’s Word, those humans—male and female—were made in the image of God, not in the image of apes. Now after proving the case that Creation is the one and only true answer to the formation of the earth and everything on it, and the universe and everything in it, and having proven numerous times, the multiple times that the frauds of Evolution has been exploited, it has now been made perfectly clear that Creation is the truth and Evolution is the myth.

1) The process arrow A represents is photosynthesis.

2) Arrow A represents light energy transformation. Light energy from the sun is converted into chemical energy in plants.

3) Photosynthesis is part of a carbon recycling process in the carbon cycle. Plants absorb light energy and convert it to chemical energy. Plants absorb carbon dioxide which is exhaled by humans and animals. Plants then produce oxygen which is absorbed by humans and animals. Animals also eat plants thus passing the carbon compounds along.

I hope this makes sense. Hope this helps! :)

In what ways might the use of embryonic stem cells be better than the use of adult stem cells
snow_tiger [21]

Answer:

Embryonic stem cells have a larger differentiation potential than adult stem cells

Explanation:

This is because embryonic stem cells can develop in any other type of differentiated cell type in the body (pluripotent), while adult stem cells are limited in that way (multipotent or unipotent). So, we can say that embryonic stem cells are more flexibile.

Another advantage of the embryonic stem cells is that they are more easily grown in culture.

Embryonic stem cells- derived during early development

Adult stem cells-derived from adult tissue
