Which of the following was originally used to measure bone density?
Alexus [3.1K]

X-rays used to measure bone density.

<u>Explanation</u>:      

The bones density test measured by the X-rays, it measures the content of calcium and other bone minerals that are packed into the segment of bone. Most commonly used parts of bone for testing are spine, hip, occasionally and the forearm. It is generally done to know the chances of osteoporosis. More the bone minerals, more will be density.  More density means the higher bone strength. Before the test, a person should avoid having calcium supplement.

Which microscope would be most useful for quickly estimating the number of red blood cells in a patients blood sample
MAVERICK [17]
The most useful microscope to use would be a Compound Light Microscope. These microscopes are limited to about a good 2000X magnification. Not only can you use this to estimate the number of red blood cells, but it is good for seeing and identifying protozoa, bacteria, and organism cells.

1.) Explain how you identified the chromosomes in order to place them in the correct pairs.
aivan3 [116]

Answer:

A chromosome is a DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) molecule with part or all of the genetic material (genome) of an organism. Most eukaryotic chromosomes include packaging proteins which, aided by chaperone proteins, bind to and condense the DNA molecule to prevent it from becoming an unmanageable tangle. This three-dimensional genome structure plays a significant role in transcriptional regulation.Chromosomes are normally visible under a light microscope only when the cell is undergoing the metaphase of cell division (where all chromosomes are aligned in the center of the cell in their condensed form). Before this happens, every chromosome is copied once (S phase), and the copy is joined to the original by a centromere, resulting either in an X-shaped structure (pictured here) if the centromere is located in the middle of the chromosome or a two-arm structure if the centromere is located near one of the ends. The original chromosome and the copy are now called sister chromatids. During metaphase the X-shape structure is called a metaphase chromosome. In this highly condensed form chromosomes are easiest to distinguish and study.In animal cells, chromosomes reach their highest compaction level in anaphase during chromosome segregation.

Chromosomal recombination during meiosis and subsequent sexual reproduction play a significant role in genetic diversity. If these structures are manipulated incorrectly, through processes known as chromosomal instability and translocation, the cell may undergo mitotic catastrophe. Usually, this will make the cell initiate apoptosis leading to its own death, but sometimes mutations in the cell hamper this process and thus cause progression of cancer
