Answer:

The correct answer will be- distal

Explanation:

In anatomy, the anatomist defined the standard position and movement of the bones of the skeletal system by universal anatomical terminologies.

The directional position of the bones of arms and legs is represented by the proximal and distal plane.

The proximal direction represents the bone closest to the point of origin or reference while distal represents the bone closest to the farthest away from the reference. Since the left wrist is farther from the reference or the elbow therefore, it is considered distal to the elbow.

Thus, distal is the correct answer.

• why is gc typically limited to molecules that weigh less than 400 amu?

Anna35 [415]

Gas chromatography (GC) is a method of separating mixed compounds. The separation will depend on each compound's retention time. Compounds with higher molecular weights will elute out slower than those with lower molecular weight. This is due to their difference in boiling points. The larger the structure, the higher the boiling point.

Samples as small as a few skin cells can potentially contain DNA. T/F

Travka [436]

Answer: True

Explanation:

DNA (Deoxyribonucleic acid) is the genetic material present inside the nucleus of all eukaryotic cells.
Samples as small as few skin cells also contain DNA and the presence of DNA in skin cells is often used to identify the DNA of a person in a crime scene.
Further, with the use of PCR technology, the small amount of DNA obtained from skin cells can be amplified into many copies.
Therefore, the given statement is true.

At the salinity of average seawater, what happens to density as the temperature increases? Is this also true of fresh water? Bra

ivanzaharov [21]

Answer:

The density of water increases as the salinity increases. The density of seawater (salinity greater than 24.7) increases as temperature decreases at all temperatures above the freezing point. The density of seawater is increased by increasing pressure.
