A child was in a diving accident. When brought into the emergency room, the doctor used sharp and blunt objects to determine if

there was any sensation on the bottom of the foot and the lateral aspect of their palm. The child stated they could not feel the stimulus in either area. What nerves were most likely damaged?

Answer:

S1 and S3

Explanation:

The spine is composed of 33 vertebrae and has 31 pairs of nerves that are distributed throughout the body in an organized manner. Each nerve that leaves the spine is responsible for imparting sensitivity and strength to a particular area of the body, so whenever there is a compression or cut of a nerve, a particular area of the body is compromised.

When a person has a feeling of numbness in the foot, as shown in the above question, it is more likely that there is a change in the spine, specifically in the nerves S1 and S3. This is because nerve S1 is responsible for eversion of the foot, while nerve S3 is responsible for the intrinsic muscles of the foot.

Sheena wants to measure the volume of a ball that is 24 cm across. How should she set up her equation?
Semmy [17]
Given that Sheena's ball is a sphere, its volume can be obtained by using the formula: V_ball = (4/3)*pi*r^3, where, r is the radius of the sphere. Since the ball is 24 cm across, this means that the radius is half of the diameter which is equal to 12 cm. Thus, the volume of the ball is equal to 7238.2295 cm^2.

A gene with the sequence ATTCATTCA underwent duplication after a few generations. Which sequence represents this gene after the
Ratling [72]

Answer:

The sequence would be <u>ATTCATTCA</u>.

Explanation:

Usually, when a sequence is duplicated, one of them becomes a non-coding. It's just like a computer. There can only be one specific file, or else a duplicated one will just replace the existing one, if you allow the file to do so. Same with DNA. This is why most of our DNA have no function and why we lost genetic abilities such as being able to produce our own Vitamin C.

So instead of the new gene being ATTCATTCAATTCATTCA, it's simply ATTCATTCA. You simply cannot have duplicates, just like computer files. I wish I could share an amazing video by PBS Eons giving a great explanation about genes and stuff, but sadly Brainly doesn't like such stuff, so just <em>search up in ㄚㄖㄩㄒㄩ乃乇 (ebuTouY) "genes we lost along the way" and it should be the first video that pops out.</em> Trust me, it's a great video, it's much better than my explanation.
