Answer: C. warfarin.

Explanation:

Warfarin has been the cornerstone of oral anticoagulant therapy for about 50 years. Its effectiveness has already been proven in the prevention of venous thromboembolism in the prevention of systemic embolism in patients  with cardiac valve prostheses or atrial fibrillation and the prevention of acute myocardial infarction (MI) in high-risk men. Warfarin mainly inhibits the vitamin K epoxide reductase enzyme, which prevents the cyclic interconversion of this vitamin. This way, by blocking the cyclic interconversion of vitamin K prevents carboxylation of glutamate residues in terminal regions in K-dependent proteins.  Warfarin is the most commonly used oral anticoagulant in clinical practice and is composed of two isomers, R-warfarin, and S-warfarin (5 times more potent than R-isomer), which are metabolized in the liver by different routes.

Mariulka [41]

Answer:

the point of science is to disprove hypothesis so having a hypothesis that doesn't allow that to happen is not good science

2. they don't fit in our mouths so are a trait from when we had larger jaws

3. bones of your lower jaw, middle ear and voice box (they aren't actually gills fyi, they just look like them)

4. likely yes as their bones were hollow but likely only able to fly short distances, the thought was that they couldn't do their size and weight but with hollow bones they were able to like a quail would

5. no because they could be sister taxa, you would have a hard time proving exactly that this new fossil is the common ancestor that birds came from to replace the old hypothesis (guess) of which one did.
