Answer: Option A. "In front of the patient, pointing at his navel"
Explanation:
The X-ray of abdominal cavity is known as Abdominal x-ray. It has same principle as X-ray and uses ionizing radiation to take pictures of inner parts of abdominal cavity such as intestine, stomach, liver and spleen. it is used to diagnose patients with vomiting, unexplained pain, and nausea.
While diagnosing patient's abdominal cavity, x-ray technician position the camera in front of the patient, pointing at his navel in order to produce a frontal view of abdominal cavity.
Talking about a x-ray machine, it is a compact apparatus which can be taken to the patient in a hospital bed or the emergency room. The x-ray tube connects flexible arm which further extends towards the patient and an x-ray film holder (image recording) plate is placed under the patient.
The technologist will ask the patient to take position on the x-ray table or bed and will position x-ray machine over the abdominal area of the patient, in order to take the frontal view of abdominal cavity. The patient will be asked to hold their breathe to get a clear picture. The technician will turn on the x-ray machine that allows x-ray machine to produce a small burst of radiation which passes through the abdominal area and records the frontal view of patient's abdominal cavity. As a result, soft tissue shows up in shades of gray and air appears black while bones appear white on the x-ray, through which patient can be diagnosed.
Hence, the correct option is A "In front of the patient, pointing at his navel".
They often respond to Quorum sensing which is determined by the cell density. Bacteria cells secrete molecules that can be detected by other bacteria, Quorum sensing allows bacteria to sense the concentration of these signalling molecules to monitor the local density of cells. It used by bacteria to coordinate certain behaviors , such as the production of biofilms.
Water (H
2O) is a polar inorganic compound that is at room temperature a tasteless and odorless liquid, which is nearly colorless apart from an inherent hint of blue. It is by far the most studied chemical compound and is described as the "universal solvent" [17][18] and the "solvent of life".[19] It is the most abundant substance on Earth[20] and the only common substance to exist as a solid, liquid, and gas on Earth's surface.[21] It is also the third most abundant molecule in the universe.[20]
Explanation:
The inbreeding process, are blood crossings between relatives who have a common ancestor. Inbreeding leads to an increase in the frequency of homozygous genotypes and a decrease in the frequency of heterozygotes. We may also note that although changes in genotypic frequencies occur, no changes in allelic frequencies are observed over successive generations of self-fertilization. The main consequence of 2 individuals sharing one or more common ancestors is that they may carry replicas (identical copies) of one or more genes present in these ancestors. And if these individuals mate, they can pass on such replicas to their offspring, generating self-sibling offspring, that is, with two identical copies of the same gene that was present in these common ancestors.
<u>Answer:</u>
<em>It is advantageous to have lesser number of bones in the pectoral girdle.</em>
<u>Explanation:</u>
Pectoral girdle is made up by the bones that connect the upper limbs to the appendicular skeleton which includes all the limb bones. Pectoral girdle in humans is made up of two bones. They are clavicle (collar bone) and scapula. The pectoral girdle allows the free movement of upper limbs.
The bones of pectoral girdle are not as massive as the bones of pelvic girdle since it doesn’t have the function of support. Lesser number of bones in pectoral girdle makes movement of upper limbs more free.
