Which of the following statement(s) about the structures making up a synovial joint is incorrect? Articular cartilage reduces fr

iction between articulating surfaces in the joint during movement and helps to absorb shock. Synovial fluid which contains hyaluronic acid and interstitial fluid, helps to nourish chondrocytes, absorb shocks, and supply nutrients and remove wastes. Articular discs absorb shocks and help to distribute synovial fluid across the articular surfaces of the joint. All of these are correct statements.

Answer:

All of these are correct statements

Explanation:

The synovial joint is found between bones that move against each other. The joint types include the ball and socket, pivot, hinge, saddle and plane joints..

The synovial joints structure is made up of;

A)The articulate capsule which has the fibrous layer and the synovial layer. The fibrous layer holds the bones in place and the synovial layer or synovium, secretes synovial fluid and also plays a role in the exchange of nutrients between the joint and blood.

B) The synovial fluid which helps in lubricating, absorbing shock and also circulating nutrients within the joint.

C) The articular cartilage which is a thin lining of hyaline cartilage that covers the bone surfaces that are in contact with each other thereby reducing friction during joint movements and absorbing shock.

Answer:

How do your cells know what to do? Just like builders have blueprints to tell them how to build a house, your cells also have instructions. Your cells' instructions are molecules of DNA.

What is DNA?

DNA is the material that makes up our chromosomes and stores our genetic information. When you build a house, you need a blueprint, a set of instructions that tells you how to build. The DNA is like the blueprint for living organisms. The genetic information is a set of instructions that tell your cells what to do.

DNA is an abbreviation for deoxyribonucleic acid. As you may recall, nucleic acids are a type of macromolecule that store information. The deoxyribo part of the name refers to the name of the sugar that is contained in DNA, deoxyribose. DNA may provide the instructions to make up all living things, but it is actually a very simple molecule. DNA is made of a very long chain of nucleotides. In fact, in you, the smallest DNA molecule has well over 20 million nucleotides.

Identify what types of of questions that can be answered by science
mamaluj [8]

Answer:

There are many questions that can be answered by science but I will provide some examples below.

Explanation:

Science involves many areas of study, <u>from biology and chemistry to physics and neuroscience</u>. Generating questions and providing answers are the most important steps in science as this process has allowed thousands of scientists to develop new drugs to treat previously-mortal diseases, to protect endangered species, to prevent population declines, to understand the behavior of fauna, among many other remarkable outcomes and discoveries.

In this answer, I will focus on some questions belonging to the life sciences areas that can be answered by science:

Biology

<em>How does climatic phenomena, such as El Niño and La Niña, affect the migration of whales?</em>

<em />

Neuroscience (humans)

<em>Is schizophrenia hereditable?</em>

<em />

Behavioral Ecology

<em>Does climate change affect the capability of cuttlefish to camouflage?</em>

Neuroscience (Animals)

<em>Are killer whales capable of  problem-solving?</em>

<em />

Ecology

<em>How does the reduction of apex predator populations (terciary consumers) affect the population of secondary consumers?</em>

<em />

Conservation Biology

<em>Why do increased temperatures lead to coral bleaching? What is the mechanism and how can it be controlled?</em>

<em />

Animal Behavior

<em>What is the mechanism that Ophiocordyceps unilateralis (Zombie fungus) uses to manipulate ants for its own disperal?</em>

<em />

Parasitology

<em>Does the parasite Toxoplasma gondii induce erratic behaviors in humans?</em>
