Fluid filled sacs in the knee are specifically called Bursa or Bursae. Bursae is plural for Bursa.
A bursa is a closed fluid filled sac that function as a gliding surface to reduce friction between tissues of the body. Knee bursitis occurs when there is irritation or inflammation in one one of the knee bursa. The procedure of removing fluid-filled sac is called bursectomy. When the bursa become infected with bacteria, this condition is called septic bursitis.
Answer: Mixture
Explanation:
If there is and unstable element composition of say, pure graphite an un-pure gold then a chemical reaction will most likely be used to separate the two elements.
Answer:
C. Thrombocytes
Explanation:
Blood is a tissue composed of many cells, which include; red blood cells (erythrocytes), white blood cell (leukocytes), platelets (thrombocytes) etc. Of these three types of cells, thrombocytes also known as Platelets are small fragments of a cell with a disk-shape whose primary function is in blood clotting.
In contrast to erythrocytes, and leukocytes (monocytes, lymphocytes) as mentioned in the question, thrombocytes or platelets are not actual whole cells but rather small portion of a cell.
Since hemophilia is an X-linked recessive disorder, the probability depends on the X alleles.
So, if father has dominant allele (H), the probability that a <span>female child would suffer from hemophilia (genotype: hh) is 0%, no matter of mother's genotype:
Father Mother
Parents: H x Hh
Daughter: HH or Hh
</span> Father Mother
Parents: H x HH
<span>Daughter: HH
</span>
Father Mother
Parents: H x hh
<span>Daughter: Hh or Hh
</span>
But, if the father has recessive allele, the probability that a <span>female child would suffer from hemophilia (genotype: hh) will depend on mother's genotype.
If mother is dominant homozygous, there will be 0% of possibility:
</span> Father Mother
Parents: h x HH
<span>Daughter: Hh
</span>
If mother is recessive homozygous, the possibility is 100%:
Father Mother
Parents: h x hh
<span>Daughter: hh
</span>
If mother is heterozygous, the possibility is 50%:
Father Mother
Parents: h x Hh
<span>Daughter: Hh or hh</span>
