<u>Answer:</u>

The “wheelchair belt” mechanism is the most important mechanism to have on the wheel chair.

<u>Explanation:</u>

  • As the patient have very poor control over his trunk so a belt will be perfect to prevent him from falling out of the wheelchair anytime.
  • The other options doesn’t make much of important sense than a belt for the patient with muscular dystrophy needs, especially when lost control over the extremities.
  • The wheelchair belt will help him in staying in the wheelchair freely without risk of falling off.

9. why do mammalian muscle cells perform lactic acid fermentation (instead of, say, ethanol fermentation)?
Crank

Alcoholic fermentation and indeed most forms of fermentation are low-energy producing. The waste products are often medium-sized hydrocarbons/alcohols that, when fully oxidized to carbon dioxide provide more energy.

Cells ferment sugars to lactic acid B. During training. This is why your muscles are sore and sore during exercise. Essentially, building this lactic acid causes your muscles to scream for oxygen and use a simplified fermentation process to meet their energy needs, which is not efficient at all.

Yes, animals will ferment for a short time if they are not supplied with enough oxygen. Humans perform lactic acid fermentation when the body urgently needs a lot of energy. If you sprint as fast as you can, your cells only have a few seconds of ATP stored. When stored ATP is depleted, muscles begin to produce ATP through lactic acid fermentation.

A geneticist is studying two genes. each gene can be either dominant or recessive. a sample of 100 individuals is categorized as
Aleksandr-060686 [28]
Attached is a table. I found the exercise on another page on the internet and the sample of 100 individuals was categorised on a table - easier to understand than as it is presented here.
<span>"(a) what is the probability that a random sampled individual, gene 1 is dominant" - We should first add up all of the individuals that are dominant for gene 1 (56+24) and then divide it by the total number of individuals (100).
</span>\frac{56+24}{100}  =0.8
<span>The probability is of 8 in 10 individuals.
"</span><span>(b) what is the probability that a random sampled individual, gene 2 is dominant" - Follow the same logic as in the previous question.
</span>\frac{56+14}{100} =0.7
<span>The probability is of 7 in 10 individuals.
</span>"<span>(c) given that gene 1 is dominant, what is the probability that gene 2 is dominant" - Because we are considering those that are dominant for gene 1, our total number of individuals is the total individuals that are dominant for gene 1 and not the whole 100. Once we have this restriction, and we want to know the probability that gene 2 is dominant in these individuals, we should also only consider those that are dominant for gene 2.
</span>\frac{56}{56+24} =0.7
The probability that gene 2 is dominant, given that that gene 1 is dominant, is of 7 in 10 individuals.

Where is it possible to see a divergent boundary without traveling to a mind ocean ridge
andriy [413]
Divergent boundaries occur where tectonic plates are moving away from each other. Mid ocean ridges are, as the name suggests on the floor of the ocean. Some divergent boundaries can be found on land. One example is in Iceland where the Mid-Atlantic Ridge surfaces. This region represents the area where the North American Plate is moving away from the Eurasian plate. Another example can be found in Africa along the East African Rift Valley.
