I wouldnt say that it has much to do with latitiude eventbkigh there are quite a few at both of the poles. It usually corresponds wirh altitude. There are glaciers in every continent.

What type of rocks form from decaying plants
Ronch [10]

Answer:

Types of rocks are three types in :- metamorphic, igneous and sedimentary rocks, these are rocks formed dirt,soil and organic matter.

Explanation:

Sedimentary rocks are is known to plant contain animal fossils, there is a high level of animals and plant they develop layer of rock fuel include oil natural gas.

Sedimentary rock due to the consist addition of new particles by the water and erosion,basins found on to the earth fore arc and back arc basins.

Coal is the type of sedimentary rock that is plant and dead animals or organic matter,long period under time right conditions.

Sedimentary rock is different type carbonate, coal, chemically performed  carbonate rock several kind of chalk and carbonate minerals.

Metamorphic and igneous rocks are abundant and they the most of rocks are on the earth actually are sedimentary rock,an animal and plant refuse one location and settle there soil and organic matter decaying animals.

A woman at 26 weeks of gestation is being assessed to determine whether she is experiencing preterm labor. Which finding indicat
My name is Ann [436]

Answer:

<u>A. The cervix is effacing and dilated to 2 cm.</u>

Explanation:

<u>PRETERM LABOUR:</u>

<u>DEFINITION:</u>

Preterm labor is defined as labor or delivery that occurs before 37 weeks of gestation.

<u>DIAGNOSIS</u>

A pregnant patient is said to be undergoing preterm labor if:

  1. Regular Uterine contractions ( at least 1 in 10 minutes).
  2. Dilation of cervix up to 2 cm or greater and effacement of cervix up to 80%
  3. Patient experiences pelvic pressure, backache, vaginal discharge or bleeding
  4. Cervix is shortened up to less than 2.5 cm with funneling of internal os when examined by Transvaginal Ultrasound

Fetal Fibronectin is a glycoprotein that if found in vaginal secretion between 24 and 34 weeks of gestation is an <u>excellent predictor</u> of preterm labor and indicates that the patient is at high risk of undergoing of preterm labor.

Similarly, increased levels of maternal salivary estriol is a predictor of preterm labor.

Coming back to the answer choices,

<u>A. The cervix is effacing and dilated to 2 cm.</u>

This is the correct answer choice as effacement of cervix and dilation of cervix upto 2cm or greater is a diagnostic feature of preterm labor.

<u> B. Irregular, mild uterine contractions are occurring every 12 to 15 minutes.</u>

<u>Regular uterine contractions at least 1 in 10 minutes is diagnostic of preterm labor.</u> Therefore this is the incorrect answer choice. However, Uterine contractions equal to or greater than <u>4 per hour is a good predictor</u> that patient will undergo preterm labor.

<u>C. Fetal fibronectin is present in vaginal secretions. </u>

Presence of fetal fibronectin in vaginal secretions is an <u>excellent predictor</u> of preterm labor. Therefore, this answer choice is inappropriate.

<u> D. Estriol is not found in maternal saliva.</u>

<u>Elevated maternal salivary estriol is a predictor of preterm delivery. </u>Therefore, this answer choice is also incorrect.

What is the function of the telomere?
Liono4ka [1.6K]

Answer:

d. to protect the end of a DNA molecule

Explanation:

Telomeres are like the protective shields of our cells' DNA.

Its name, of Greek origin, literally means "final part", and the telomeres are that: the ends of the chromosomes, something similar to the plastic tips of the shoelaces.

But they are very repetitive and non-coding parts of DNA: their main function is to protect the genetic material that carries the rest of the chromosome.

As our cells divide to multiply and to regenerate the tissues and organs of our body the telomere length is reduced, and so over time they become shorter.

When the telomeres finally remain so small that they can no longer protect the DNA, the cells stop reproducing: they reach a state of old age or old age.

Therefore, telomere length is considered a key "biomarker of aging" at the molecular level, although it is not the only one, and in recent years it has attracted the attention of numerous investigations.

Afina-wow [57]

Answer:

a. Endomysium <u>8. The layer of connective tissue that surrounds an individual </u>muscle fiber

b. Epimysium <u>6. The layer of connective tissue that surrounds a skeletal </u>muscle

c. Fascia <u>3. Connective tissue located between adjacent muscles</u>

d. Fascicle 1<u>2. A small bundle of muscle fibers within a muscle</u>

e. Myosin <u>11. Protein found within a thick filament </u>

f. Perimysium <u>4. The layer of connective tissue that separates a muscle into small bundles</u>

g. Sarcolemma <u>5. The plasma membrane of a muscle fiber</u>

h. Sarcomere <u>7. Unit of alternating light and dark striations between discs (lines)</u>

i. Sarcoplasm <u>2. The cytoplasm of a muscle fiber</u>

j. Sarcoplasmic reticulum <u>9. A cellular organelle in muscle fiber corresponding to the endoplasmic</u>

k. Tendon <u>10. The cordlike part that attaches a muscle to a bone</u>

l. Transverse (T) tubule reticulum <u>1. Membranous channel extending inward from muscle fiber membrane </u>

Explanation:

A muscle has around it epimysium, which is connective tissue. Inside the epimysium, there are fascicles, and around each of them, there is perimysium. Inside every fascicle, there are muscle fibers, each of them is surrounded by a connective tissue called endomysium. Between every muscle, there is also connective tissue and is called fascia. The connective tissue has vessels and provides support.

The muscle cells are called fibers. They have a membrane, the sarcolemma, a cytoplasm, the sarcoplasm, and a sarcomere, which is the functional unit of the fiber, in other words, it is the structure responsible for the contraction. The sarcomere has different bands made of thick filaments of myosin and thin filaments of actin. They are the light and dark striations that go from disc z to disc z when we observe the sarcomere under a special microscope. The sarcoplasmic reticulum is the place that stores the calcium necessary for the contraction of the fiber, and the transverse tubule reticulum allows the contraction of various fibers since they spread the action potential amongst fibers.
