Identify the landmarks on the skull front and back that should be covered by a helmet? posterior head? how far above the eyebrow

NemiM [27]4 years ago

Protection for the head is needed in cases of direct collision sports like hockey and football. Collisions with another player or the turf may result in a concussion, thus all the helmets must possess NOCSAE certifications.  

The helmet should fit comfortably around all the segments of the player's head, there should be no gaps between the head and pads. It should cover the base of the skull, the pads positioned at the back of the neck should be comfortable, and at the same time should not be uncomfortable.  

The helmet should not come down over the eyes, the front edge of the helmet should be 3/4 inch or of two finger widths above the eyebrows.

Which of the following does natural selection act directly upon? Alleles, genes, individual organisms, or mutations?
Inga [223]

Natural selection act directly upon <u>Alleles</u>

Explanation:

Genes, such as that of fur color, have many variants called alleles. Natural selection act on the alleles and chooses the best fit for an environment and eliminates the disadvantageous ones from the population over generations. Mutations are a rare occurrence that increases the number of allelic variants of a genes on which natural selection can act upon.

What is the Molecular mechanism of DNA replication?
kolezko [41]

Answer:

DNA replication a process of copying of a cell's DNA.  DNA replication is semiconservative process which means that each strand in the double helix helps in the synthesis of new, complementary strand and conserve the parent template.

The Molecular mechanism of DNA replication is as following:

  1. The double starnded DN in binded with hydrogen bond, the enzyme helicase opens up the DNA at the replication fork.
  2. A single stranded binding protein prevent the rewinding of DNA and so binds to the DNA around the replication fork
  3. Topoisomerase prevent supercoiling at replication fork.
  4. The ezymes primase come in action and produces RNA primers which are complementary to the DNA strand.
  5. DNA polymerase III help to extends the primers and allow them to add  to the 3' end, to make new DNA.
  6. DNA Polymerase then remove RNA primers and replace with DNA.
  7. DNA ligase blocks the the gaps between DNA fragments.

So, this is the molecuar mechanism of DNA replication.

After using a chemical mutagen to generate mutations in a dna sequence, scientists noted a mutation from c to t at the 10th posi
Luda [366]

Answer:

substitution, missense mutation, and transition

Explanation:

A mutation is any change in the genetic information of an organism. A substitution is a point mutation by which a single nucleotide base pair is replaced by a different nucleotide. Moreover, a missense mutation is a point mutation that results in the incorporation of a different amino acid in the polypeptide chain since this mutation generates a new codon which codes for a different amino acid. Finally, a transition is a point mutation where a purine (either Adenine or Guanine) is changed to another purine, or a pyrimidine (either Thymine or Cytosine) is changed to another pyrimidine (in this case, Cytosine is changed to Thymine).
