Answer: b. The radius forms the point of the elbow

c. The radius articulates to the wrist closest to the thumb

Explanation:

Ulna and radius are the two bones of the forearm. These bones articulates with the humerus and carpels of the hand.

b. The radius forms the point of the elbow: The elbow joint is the hinge joint that forms between the proximal ends of the radius and ulna in the forearm and distal ends of the humerus. The radius forms a pointed end.

c. The radius articulates to the wrist closest to the thumb: The wrist forms a complex joint. It forms a transition between the hand and the forearm. The radial deviation in the wrist forms the basis for the movement of the tilting of the wrist joint towards the thumb.

NemiM [27]

The answer is ‘Connective tissue often consists of relatively few cells embedded in an extracellular matrix’. Epithelial, connective, muscle, nervous are the other types of animal tissue. The reason the connective tissue is composed largely of fibers and few cells is due to its role in support (and holding together organs) and protection.

In the presence of oxygen, one glucose molecule has the energy to make up to

charle [14.2K]

C. 38 ATP
In the presence of oxygen, one glucose molecule has the energy to make up to 38 ATP. The ATP production is determined by the following steps, (-2 ATP) glycolysis preparatory phase, (7-9 ATP) glycolysis pay-off phase, (5 ATP) oxidative decarboxylation of pyruvate and (20 ATP) Krebs cycle. One glucose which has 38 ATP hence was the summation of all the process mentioned that took place. All these process take place under the cellular function of cellular respiration.

According to the Punnett square, offspring from these two parents have a ____________ chance of inheriting two b alleles. Indivi

Explanation:

50%; homozygous recessive; phenotype

According to the Punnett square, offspring from these two parents have a 50%chance of inheriting two b alleles. Individuals that inherit two b alleles are homozygous recessive . Inheriting two b alleles confers the phenotype of blue eyes.

Inheritance describes the way in which certain traits are passed onto offspring of sexual reproduction. For instance, co-dominance, both of a gene's alleles are present, and notable in the phenotype.

The nucleus is a large membrane-bound organelle that houses the genetic information, DNA, in the cell. Sequences of DNA make up genes which can have different forms called alleles and comprise the genotype. DNA is transcribed into mRNA and later translated into amino acids which are linked together by rRNA to form proteins. These proteins, when expressed, are referred to as an organism's phenotype.
