Answer:

C) lumbar vertebrae; short, flat spinous processes

Explanation:

The Lumbar Vertebrae are bigger and stronger than vertebral bodies in certain positions.

The vertebral bodies and disks bares majority of the body weight of the body. The lamina, facets and spinous process are basic components of the posterior materials that assist in guiding the movement of the vertebrae and as a coverage or protective shelter for the spinal cord.

The spinous process are SHORT and STURDY (FLAT) in the Lumbar Vertebrae. Hence, this explain why it is often referred to as "Hatchet-Shaped".

rodikova [14]

Answer:

The correct answer would be

  • Concave lens for nearsightedness
  • Convex lens for farsightedness

Nearsightedness or myopia is a condition in which a person can see the nearby objects clearly but is unable to see the objects present at a farther distance clearly.

It is usually caused due to elongation of the eyeball or when the lens becomes too curved.

It can be corrected by using a concave or diverging lens of appropriate power.

Farsightedness or hyperopia is a condition in which a person can see the distant objects clearly but is unable to see the nearby objects distance clearly.

It is usually caused due to shortening of the eyeball or when the lens loses its curvature.

It can be corrected by using a convex or converging lens of appropriate power.

jeyben [28]

Question:All known organisms use genetic information to produce protein molecules via the same genetic code. This finding strongly supports the hypothesis that __________.

a) the earliest macromolecules probably arose when lightning struck an oxygen-free atmosphere

b) all organisms are descended from one or a few common ancestors

c) the genetic code readily evolves by natural selection

d) there's only one possible way to encode information in a macromolecule

Answer:

b) all organisms are descended from one or a few common ancestors

Explanation:

Protein synthesis occurs when the nucleotide sequence of the mRNA is read in the form of genetic codes. A specific genetic code specifies the same amino acid in all living beings. For example, the code "UUU" codes for phenylalanine in all the living beings irrespective of their species. This suggests that all the life forms have originated from one or few common ancestors and the genetic code has been preserved during the course of evolution of various species.
