Answer:

C.

Explanation:

The hemothorax is the accumulation of blood in the space between the chest wall and the lung (the pleural cavity).

The most common cause of hemothorax is chest trauma. Hemothorax may also occur in people who have: a defect in blood clotting, chest (thoracic) or heart surgery, death of lung tissue (pulmonary infarction), lung or pleural cancer - either primary or secondary (metastatic or otherwise), rupture in a blood vessel when a central venous catheter is placed, or when associated with severe high blood pressure or tuberculosis.

Answer:

f(A1) = 0.9700, f(A2) = 0.0300

Explanation:

According to Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium equation:

p + q = 1

p² + 2pq + q² = 1

where,

p = frequency of dominant allele

q = frequency of recessive allele

p² = frequency of dominant homozygous genotype

2pq = frequency of heterozygous genotype

q² = frequency of recessive homozygous genotype

q² = 9/10000 = 0.0009

A2 = q

= √0.0009 = 0.03

A1 = p

= 1-q

= 1-0.03 = 0.97

nexus9112 [7]

Answer:

It is a motor reflex response

Explanation:

This motor reflex is carried out by motor neurons which are located in the Brain and spinal cord. They are of two types, the upper motor neuron and the lower motor neuron. They upper motor neuron connects with the lower motor neuron in the transmission of impulses. Their presynaptic tract is in the cerebral motor area via the corticospinal tract while their post synaptic tract is in muscle fibres. Thus when she hit her legs on the glass, afferent fires was sent to the brain which then sent efferent impulses to the muscle fibers to quickly withdraw the leg due to action of motor neurons.
