Brian hamilton has , which is an inflammation of the tissues surrounding his elbow. this was caused by a sports injury.

1 answer:

6 0

This is called bursitis specifically olecranon bursitis. Olecranon bursa in the elbow is a thin fluid filled sac at the tip of the elbow. The bursa fills with fluid which can lead into inflammation on the surrounding area of the elbow resulting in pain and limitations of movement. Complications can happen if medical attention is not given. This includes bleeding, bruising, infectins, necrotizing fasciitis can also happen. Patient must undergo work up such as plain x rays, bone scintigraphy or if needed MRI/CT scan. Surgical interventions are usually needed because non surgical means are usually non effective. Long term monitoring is a must and patient must be advised on prevention practices.

Which of the following is the most characteristic feature of clastic

marusya05 [52]

The most characteristic feature of clastic sedimentary rocks is "stratification".

Answer: Option A

Explanation:

"Stratification" is an essential characteristic of the sedimentary rocks take place in an igneous rock produced at the surface of the Earth naturally due to volcanic fragmental deposits and flows of lava. It defines the pattern in which sediment layers are layered over each other and may occur on a scale of hundreds of meters, even down to sub-millimeter.

It also results from variations in texture or composition during deposition. Delays in deposition may also permit for variations to the older deposits before coverage given by new sediments. This mechanism in sedimentary rocks change in both, the degree of prominence and in structure details.

What do you think would have the greatest effect on the body—a harmful mutation in a pluripotent embryonic stem cell

spin [16.1K]

Answer:

This question lacks options, the complete question is: What do you think would have the greatest effect on the body—a harmful mutation in a pluripotent embryonic stem cell, or a harmful mutation in an adult multipotent stem cell?The correct answer is a harmful mutation in a pluripotent embryonic stem cell.

Explanation:

Pluripotent Stem Cells can self-renew and differentiate into any of the three germ layers, which are: the ectoderm, the endoderm and the mesoderm. These three germ layers subsequently differentiate to form all the tissues and organs within a human being. If during embryonic development, genetic mutations - alterations in genes - occur in the embryonic stem cell, they pass to daughter cells as a consequence of cell division, and an individual is generated whose cells differ at the genetic level. Multipotent stem cells are organospecific cells, that is, they can give rise to any type of cells but from a specific organ (a lung, a kidney or the brain). Their differentiation ends the moment they specialize and become a cell with a specific function within a specific tissue or organ. If there were a mutation in these cells, it would damage a specific designed tissue or organ.

categorize the following characteristics based on whether they are describing chloroplasts or mitochondria.

Ghella [55]

The categorization of the characteristics based on whether they are describing chloroplasts or mitochondria are as follows:

Mitochondria: carry out cellular respiration.
Chloroplasts: carry out photosynthesis.
Mitochondria: found in plant and animal cells.
Chloroplasts: produce carbohydrates used as source of food for most living things.
Mitochondria: abundant in human muscle cells.
Chloroplasts: not found in animal cells.
Chloroplasts: contain chlorophyll.

A cell can be defined as the fundamental functional, structural and smallest unit of life, which is found within the body of an organism.

Some examples of cell organelles that are found in the body of an organism include the following:

Mitochondria.
Nucleus.
Endoplasmic reticulum (ER).
Vesicles.
Cytoplasm.
Cell membrane.
Chromosome.
Golgi apparatus (bodies).
Chloroplast

<h3>What is mitochondria?</h3>

Mitochondria can be defined as one of the cell organelles that is found in the body of a living organism.

Also, mitochondria is known as the powerhouse because it is saddled with responsibility of providing all the energy required in the cell, especially by transforming energy forms through series of chemical reactions.
