The four types of bones in the human body are long bones (femur, fibula, and tibia), short bones (the bones in your feet, hands, and your collarbone), flat bones (your breastbone and wingbone), and irregular bones (your kneecap is one can't remember the others).

Long bones have a tubular shaft and articular surface at each end. The major bones of the arms and the legs are all long bones.
Short bones also have a tubular shaft and articular surfaces at each end but are much smaller. The short bones include all of the metacarpals and phalanges in the hands, the metatarsals and phalanges in the feet, and the clavicle.
Flat bones are thin and have broad surfaces. The flat bones include the scapula, the ribs, and the sternum.
<span>Irregular bones are irregular in size and shape and are usually quite compact. They include the bones in the vertebral column, the carpal bones in the hands, tarsal bones in the feet, and the patella.</span>

A model of a plane in different parts of the atmosphere uses a scale of
Svetradugi [14.3K]

Answer:

D. 0.5 ft

Explanation:

Using the scale :

1 : 4000

This means that an altitude of 4000 feets is represented by 1 unit in the model.

Hence,

1 feet in model = 4000 feet actual altitude

Given an actual altitude of 2000 feets above ground level ;

Feets in the model will be x

1 feet = 4000 feet

x = 2000 feet

Cross multiply :

4000x = 2000

Divide both side by 4000

4000x / 4000 = 2000/4000

x = 0.5

Hence, 2000 feets above ground level corresponds to 0.5 feets in model

In which part of a neuron is the postsynaptic membrane usually found?
insens350 [35]

Dendrite

<span>Postsynaptic membrane is usually found in the dendrite.
Dendrite is the primary site on a neuron for receiving signals from other neurons and it transmits the signals toward the cell body from which the dendrite extends from, using short distance graded potentials rather than action potentials. In a chemical synapse, the postsynaptic membrane receives a signal from the presynaptic cell and responds through depolarization or hyperpolarization. The synaptic cleft separates postsynaptic membrane from presynaptic membrane</span>
