Interstitial fluid pressure

Answer:

The answer that would fill in the blank for the statement: Insertion of a device into the muscle to measure the pressure within the muscle is monitoring of:___, would be: Interstitial Fluid Pressure, or IFP.

Explanation:

Normally, between tissues, little to no fluid should exist. However, in certain diseases, like for example in tumorous cancers, the blood vessels, and lymphatic vessels, become leaky, and allow fluids to move from them into the interstitial space. When this amount of fluid exceeds the limits, organs become severelly affected, including the muscles, bones, and the skin. The measuring of this IFP allows doctors to know how severe the problem is getting and in extreme cases may lead to the insertion of methods to drain this fluid, and use of medication as well.

Between a Black father bear (genotype BB) and a Brown mother bear (genotype bb), they had several baby bears.Black fur allele (B
Karolina [17]

Answer:

100% or 1

Explanation:

This question involves a gene coding for fur color in bears. According to the question, black fur allele (B) is dominant over the brown fur allele (b). This means that a bear heterozygous for fur color (Bb) will be phenotypically black.

In this question, a black father bear (genotype BB) and a brown mother bear (genotype bb) were crossed, the baby bears will all have a genotype Bb (see punnet square in the attached image). Since all the offsprings of this cross have genotype Bb, this means that 100% will have black fur.

If cancer occurs only in dividing cells, how can the brain develop cancer even though all brain cells are differentiated and don
Makovka662 [10]

Explanation:

Cancer occurs in dividing cells only because genetic materials divide into two equal portions during division. This process may be interrupted by carcinogenes or mutagenes to make mutate cells and then render them as cancer cells. In the brain, the cells are differentiated and there is no chance to start division, then how can cancer be found in the brain.

You have learned that humans have a total of 46 chromosomes and that chimpanzees have a total of 48 chromosomes. Use other textb
Anastaziya [24]

Answer:

The correct answer is included in the Explanation section

Explanation:

An organism with considerable more chromosomes than humans: the plant <em>Ophioglossum reticulatum</em> with 1260 chromosomes.

An organism with considerable fewer chromosomes than humans: the ant <em>Myrmecia pilosula</em> with 1 chromosome.

It might be thought that the chromosome number of a species is directly related to its complexity, meaning that an organism with a large number of chromosomes is more complex than an organism with a small number. However, this is not true. Chromosomes are structures of coiled DNA, and its number indicate how the cells wrapp their genomic material when they reproduce. The number of chromosomes is not related to the organism complexity, but rather the number of genes and their function.

Why are cells so small?
Harrizon [31]
The surface area to the volume ratio gets smaller as the cell gets larger. If the cell grows beyond a certain limit not enough material will be able to cross the membrane fast enough to accommodate the increased cellular volume.

Hope that helps
