A head injury happens due to trauma to the brain or skull and classified as close or sometimes penetrating. It may occur right away or develop slowly. An example is contusion which is the answer on this scenario. This is called mild traumatic injury caused by a blow on the head yet none of the tissue of the brain is torn.

From the incident given above priscilla experienced a contusion.

Answer: Option D

<u>Explanation:</u>

In this case Priscilla had a head crash but not one tissue is torn but has bruises caused by the impact. So for a better understanding laceration would have caused the wear and tear of the tissue but this is a stage of contusion where bruises has happened.

The impact of the crash has created an internal blood loss within the brain that has led to unconsciousness for three days.  It also falls under the traumatic brain injury category where the patient needs to be stopped of the blood clot for a speedy recovery.

You cross purple-flowered and white-flowered pea plants, and all offspring are purple. how come? select one:
Vaselesa [24]
To solve this problem on genetic dominance, we will need a punnet square.

Let's let P represent purple-flowered and p represent white-flowered.

We have one purple flowered plant with the alleles PP, and we have one white flowered plant with the alleles pp. Using a punnet square, we can determine the alleles of the offspring.

       <u>P</u>     <u>P</u>
p|    Pp   Pp

p |   Pp   Pp

As we can tell from our punnet square, all of our offspring will have purple flowers. This is because the purple-flower allele is dominant and the white-flowered allele is recessive.

Since each flower has a dominant and recessive allele, they are heterozygous.

Therefore, the solution to this problem is D.

What is the product of meiosis I?
Valentin [98]

Answer:

Meiosis I, a reductional division of two haploid cells produces offspring cells that are not genetically identical with the event of recombination. Haploid girl cells have half the original/parent cell chromosomes.

Explanation:

meiosis II, an equational or mitotic division, divides the haploid cells created in meiosis I to produce four identical daughter cells that ultimately form the male/female gametes (egg/sperm).

Here chromatids split in contrast to meiosis I when homologous chromosomes apart.
