When assessing tina’s uninjured ankle, what range of motion would you expect of this joint?

2 answers:

5 0

The answer to this question would be: dorsiflexion, plantarflexion, inversion, eversion, abduction and adduction

The ankle joint is made up of a few joints that allow many kinds of movement. But the most important movement is dorsiflexion and plantarflexion which was used when you are walking. eversion, inversion, adduction and abduction is useful to keep balance.

In human body, a joint is defined as a location where two or more bones meet and connect. The range of motion of joints refers to the measurement of the maximum distance and direction a particular joint can move. Most joints are connected in such a way that they allow movements in specific directions only.
The quantity of movement through a normal range for each joint is measured in degrees using an instrument called goniometer. Scientists had established standard range of motion values for most joints.
For ankle joint, downward movement of the joint, which is called plantar flexion ranges from zero to 50 degrees while the movement upward, which is called dorsiflexion ranges from zero to 20 degrees.

Answer: Exponential

Explanation:

The main requirement for the population of a species to grow is food. When there is food, a organisms that are born will be able to live longer because food will be able to sustain them.

This is what happened with humans during the Neolithic Revolution when we began farming.

The general trend is that the more food that is available, the higher the population growth. When these butterflies arrived and found no competition for food, their population would increase in the highest way possible which is exponentially because there would be plenty of food to go around.

omeli [17]

The answer is (3) an increase in the proportion of offspring that have favorable characteristics.

In natural selection, genotype variations that will increase the chance of survival and reproduction of some organism are preserved and will be inherited. Peppered moth color variation is a good example of natural selection.During the Industrial revolution, due to pollution, trees become darker in the urban area. Light-colored moths were, thus, easy prey. The dark-colored moths were able to camouflage on dark trees and avoid predators. The phenomenon is known as industrial melanism. So, in polluted urban areas, the number of dark-colored peppered moths increased. In the clean environment, were much effective in hiding from predators and they outnumbered the dark-colored moths.
Therefore, the proportion of offspring that have favorable characteristics in such environment will increase.

Processes such as changes in orbital geometry or volcanic eruptions have clearly affected climate in the past, and these explain

docker41 [41]

Answer:

TRUE

Explanation:

There has been a constant increase in the earth's global surface temperature. This global rise in temperature is due to the increasing number of volcanic eruptions on earth's surface, changes in the orbital geometry as well as due to the introduction of the industrial revolution, that has been taking place on earth for the last 200 years.

The eruption of volcanoes leads to the release of a large number of pyroclastic materials and greenhouse gases and volcanic gases such as CO₂, SO₂, H₂O, H₂S and many other gases, which is harmful to the atmosphere. This leads to an increasing amount of temperature, resulting in the melting of the glaciers in the polar region.

Over this long time, plate motions have rapidly taken place, due to which the volcanoes were formed and erupted near the convergent and the divergent plate boundaries.

Thus, the above-given statement is true.

Biotechnology has allowed us to genetically modify corn with a gene that acts as a pesticide. What could be a possible environme

Sergio [31]

Since a gene that acts as a pesticide is inserted into a corn, that corn is now safe from insects. This will happen because the corn will probably synthesise protein according to that inserted DNA sequence and that protein will serve as a repellent to the insects. However, the Red Queen's hypothesis in evolution explains that organisms must constantly adapt and evolve in order to survive. This refers to insects. If they could not eat genetically modified corn, they would extinct. So, they must adapt or evolve in order to survive. So, it is expected that insects that are resistant to this specific pesticide would develop through the time.
