Answer:

Opposition

Explanation:

Opposition is the type of movement that is only for the hands. Opposition is them movement where you bring your finger/s in contact with your thumb. When you put it back to its anatomical position, which is beside the index finger (pointing finger) this is called <em>reposition.</em>

Retraction occurs in the scapula (Shoulder blades) and mandible (jaw). Dorsiflexion you see that happen in your foot. When you bring your toes closer to the shin. Supination is more on the forearm and foot, where you rotate it so your palms are facing forward (sole facing the other ankle for feet). Flexion is the movement of body parts where you bring them closer to each other at a joint (the angle between the two parts are lessened). Like when you bend your elbows to "flex" muscles.

You cross two red griffins with blue eyes and produce offspring that are: red with blue eyes, red with green eyes, white with bl
sergejj [24]

Answer:

The reason for the offspring to present these genotypes is that during the formation of the gametes, the alleles separate and are inherited independently, therefore they can generate several different phenotypic combinations.

Explanation:

In order for an offspring to present very different phenotypes, as shown in the question above, it is necessary that the two red griffins with blue eyes that were crossed are heterozygous. Thus it will be possible for the offspring to present a wide variety of phenotype, according to Mendel's second law.

Mendel's second law is called the Law of segregation. This law explains that the alleles (which determine the characteristics of individuals) are separated in the formation of gametes and inherited by the offspring of a cross independently, and can generate different combinations of phenotypes, when the parents of a cross are heterozygous.

How does the development of the cell theory model how most theories are made?
lora16 [44]

By the late 1830s, botanist Matthias Schleiden and zoologist Theodor Schwann were studying tissues and proposed the unified cell theory. The unified cell theory states that: all living things are composed of one or more cells; the cell is the basic unit of life; and new cells arise from existing cells.

The pKa of an acid depends partly on its environment. Predict the effect of each of the following environmental changes on the p
Galina-37 [17]
The pKa represents the pH of the medium at which the zwitterionic amino acid assumes most stable ionic form due to structural stabilization. As the pKa is dependent upon the environmental factors of the solution around the amino acids, a change in their structure and localization can cause change in the pKa of the protein. Thus, the answers can be found as below:

Part A: Decrease (As the lysine is basic in nature, it will tend to stabilize the electrostatic interaction and weak interactions between the acidic amino acids and hydrogen bonds in the viscinity, thus lowering the pH and hence pKa of the protein)

Part B: Increase (As the carboxyl group is acidic in nature, removal of it will tend to increase the pKa since the basic amino acids will tend to accumulate more negative charge in their viscinity)

Part C: Increase (As glutamic acid is an acidic amino acid, its shift from outside to a non-polar site will prevents its ionization and hence the pKa will tend to shift from slightly acidic to slightly basic, hence increase)

A nurse is caring for a client with varicose veins. which clinical manifestations should the nurse expect with this diagnosis?
vova2212 [387]
The clinical manifestations should the nurse expect are reports of leg fatigue, tortuous veins in the legs and pain in lower extremities when standing.

In addition, leg fatigue is a communal clinical manifestation triggered by venous stasis and insufficient tissue oxygenation. The vein walls deteriorate and dilate causing distended, bulging veins that look tortuous and darkened. As vein walls weaken and dilate venous pressure increases and the valves turn out to be useless in which vein stasis and inadequate oxygenation end result is limb discomfort. The discolored toenails effect from a fungus below the nail or chronic hypoxia, not varicose veins, confined to a small area of heat in a calf is a mark of thrombophlebitis and reddened zones on a leg are symptomatic of thrombophlebitis.
