Option B

Middle colic arteries is the most likely additional source of blood to the descending colon

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

The middle colic artery is a section of the superior mesenteric artery. Middle Colic provides the transverse colon, has a branch that runs to the right colon and branch that persists to the left colon that catches up with the left colic artery and proceeds as the marginal artery to provide the descending colon.

The left gastroepiploic artery is one of the sections of the splenic artery. Sigmoid- branch off IMA so barred in this case Splenic- proceeds of the celiac trunk, branches accumulation spleen & pancreas Superior Rectal- a sequence of IMA not possible to participate in this case

The middle colic artery can supply the descending colon in case the inferior mesenteric artery is blocked.

Explanation:

In the intestines, the inferior mesentery artery supplies one-third portion of the transverse, descending and sigmoid colon on the left side.

The superior mesentery artery is divided into many branches like the middle colic artery. The middle colic artery after supplying the transverse colon divides into the left and right branches.

The left branch of the middle colic artery anastomoses (of the SMA) with the left colic artery (of the IMA) and supplies the descending colon. Hence, in case the origin of the IMA is blocked, the middle colic artery of the SMA can still supply to the descending colon.

Moreover, the patient does not have intestinal angina which usually occurs when the SMA is blocked. Since the SMA is not blocked, its branch middle colic artery can supply the descending colon.

The left gastroepiploic and splenic artery supplies the spleen, superior rectal artery supplies the rectal region.

I NEED HELP The measure of how resistant a solid is to shape change when a force is applied.

enyata [817]

Hardness is a measure of how resistant solid matter is to various kinds of permanent shape change when a force is applied Macroscopic hardness is generally characterized by strong intermolecular bonds, but the behavior of solid materials under force is complex; therefore, there are different measurements of hardness: scratch hardness, indentation hardness, and rebound hardness. Hardness is dependent on ductility, elastic stiffness, plasticity, strain, strength, toughness, viscoelasticity, and viscosity. Common examples of hard matter are ceramics, concrete, certain metals, and super hard materials, which can be contrasted with soft matter.

2. Members of this kingdom secrete enzymes into their food then absorb the digested matter

Fudgin [204]

Answer:

Fungi

Explanation:

Fungi are an example of saprotrophs i.e. organisms who live and feed on dead organic matter. Saprotrophic nutrition is described as chemoheterotrophic extracellular digestion. It involves the extracellular release of digestive enzymes on the organic matter. The enzymes break down the organic matter into a simpler form, which is then absorbed by the fungus.

Volgvan

Answer:

Option D

Explanation:

Bits of DNA that are interspersed among these repeated sequences are called spacers. Regarding to bacteria, the spacers are taken from viruses that previously attacked the organism. They serve as a bank of memories, which enables bacteria to recognize the viruses and fight against future attacks.
