Answer: Pelvic and sternum.

Explanation:

Bone marrow biopsy is a procedure where by sample of bone marrow is extracted to be tested in the laboratory. This test is done by the doctor when the platelets, erythrocytes or white blood cells level is to high or low. The biopsy help to determine any abnormalities that may have occur.

Bone marrow is the spongy tissue found in the body that produced red blood cells through it stem cells. One of the common sites for bone marrow biopsy in adult is the pelvic bone near the hip. The second sites is the sternum i.e the breast none for aspirate. The patient lies on his back on the pillow and raise his chest up to obtain the bone marrow .

Answer: Pelvic and sternum

Explanation:

bone marrow biopsy is a procedure that is used to obtain bone marrow usually with syringe for evaluation of various blood cells( leucocytes, erythrocytes ) and also for examination for different blood disesases such as leukemias and lymphomas and diagnose some genetic conditions. The common site for a bone marrow biopsy is the large pelvic bone near the hip and also some samples taken from the sternum (breastbone).

A bone marrow examination or test consists of two separate tests that are done at the same time namely:

1. Bone marrow aspiration that helps collect sample of the liquid portion of the bone marrow

2. Bone marrow biopsy that obtains a sample of the solid material.

Explain why earthquake and volcanoes appear in generalized belts around the planet the planet
OverLord2011 [107]

At diverging plate boundaries, earthquakes occur as the plates pull away from each other. Volcanoes also form as magma rises upward from the underlying mantle along the gap between the two plates. We almost never see these volcanoes, because most of them are located on the sea floor.

Identify three environmental influences on microbial growth. How does each affect microbial distribution?
Alenkinab [10]

Answer:

1.Temperature

2.Moisture

3. PH: acidic or basic concentration

Explanation:

Different microorganism grow at different temperature. For example, many human-disease-causing microbes have an optimum temperature of 37C, and most of the bacteria do not grow at temperature higher than 45C. This means that any temperature lower than 45C will favor the growth of certain bacteria while higher temperature may cause death or reduction in the population of most. Hence, the effect of temperature on these organisms.

Water is required to dissolve the cell substances in microorganism just like higher animals.  while some can survive under an extremely dry condition, most can't and this could result in death or reduction in population.

PH, a measure of the hydrogen concentration in a solution for most microorganism is between 6-8, too much of acid or base could disrupt the activities of these organisms and a maintained range ensure an optimal survival.
