Nondisjunction is defined as the failure of the chromosomes to seperate during cell division. An animal with a haploid number of 6 (diploid number of 12) undergoes meiosis, and at the meiosis II (cells are already haploid from the meiosis I), nondisjunction occurs. The mature ovum will contain 6+1 chromosomes (n+1) because there is an extra chromosome from the nondisjunction. The second polar body will contain 5 chromosomes (normal would be 6) because the second polar body did not receive that extra chromosome due to nondisjunction. In the event of fertilization of the abnormal ovum with a normal sperm, the zygote will be a diploid (12 chromosomes) normally but since the ovum as an extra chromosome from the nondisjunction then the zygote will have an extra chromosome (13 chromosomes). One pair of chromosomes has an extra single chromosome and this is called a trisomy.

Which of the following would be a purpose of a modified barium swallow
Arturiano [62]

Answer:

all of the above

Explanation:

A modified barium swallow test is a methodology used to diagnose swallowing disorders (i.e., dysphagia). During this test, the patient eats food containing barium, which can be tracked through X-rays to identify abnormalities in the swallowing process, thereby visualizing how swallow muscles move and coordinate. The modified barium swallow test can result very useful to recognize difficulties with swallowing and aspiration, and thus modify the patient's diet (if necessary), determine swallowing therapies, alternative routes for nutrition delivery, etc.

Hypothesize Describe a situation where you could serve as a role model at home, at
Anna71 [15]

A common position at school in which you can be considered a positive role model for others is by perhaps being the class valedictorian.

<h3>What is a positive role model?</h3>
  • This is when you are in a position of success in which others can be inspired by you.
  • Class valedictorian would mean you have the highest grades among your peers.
  • This is a great example of being someone whom the younger students can use as a role model to motivate themselves to be better at school.

Therefore, since a role model is a person who is in a public position in which others can look up to him/her and aspire to be similar to them, being the class valedictorian, meaning you have the highest grades in your year, is a prime example of being a role model for others.
