The branching point on a cladogram represents a common ancestor. A cladogram is a diagram used in cladistics to show relations among organisms. However it is not an evolutionary tree since it does not show how ancestors are related to descendants, nor does it show how much they have changed.
Answer:
Newer premixed insulins are better at lowering hemoglobin A1c and postprandial glucose levels than are long-acting insulins
<span>Organisms all possess DNA as their genetic material. What differentiates them (and their DNA) is the sequence of base-pairs within the DNA. The base-pairs are actually specific sequences of nucleotides (i.e. adenine , thymine, guanine and cytosine, labelled A, T, G, and C respectively) which encode genes. In other words, the DNA in each organism is made of these bases, but their sequences differ from organism to organism.</span>
Answer:
The correct answer is D. The surface of the skin can be mapped into distinct regions, each served by a single spinal nerve: these regions are called dermatomes.
Explanation:
A dermatome is the area of skin innervated by a single spinal nerve and its spinal ganglion. The cutaneous nerves are those that reach the skin, picking up the sensitivity of the skin. Each cutaneous nerve is distributed in a certain area of skin, called a dermatome.
A pair of posterior or sensory roots and a pair of anterior or motor roots arise from each cord segment, joining laterally at the level of the intervertebral foramen to form a mixed spinal nerve. Each of these innervates a strip of skin called a dermatome, so the body surface can be considered a true mosaic of these.
In the extremities the arrangement of dermatomes is more complicated because of the embryological rotation of the limbs as they grow from the trunk.
