Answer:

Percussion

Explanation:

Percussion is one of the five methods (Palpation, Inquiry,auscultation, inspection & percussion)  of clinical examination which is used to determine the structures underlying any surface by tapping on it slowly with fingers, any light & small instruments, hands etc.

It is commonly used for assessing the condition of thorax and abdomen. By using this method a physician is able to drive information regarding the size , border, consistency, fluid presence etc. of underlying structure.

When egg white is heated, it hardens and is opaque. This cooking process cannot be reversed, but hard-boiled egg white can be di
marshall27 [118]

Answer:

Generally proteins are denatured at high temperature.Therefore when  the egg is hard boiled they are denatured since eggs are protein,  the 3-dimensional  structure of protein is lost, and it is replaces with tangled meshwork of polypeptide chains .This is because the  orderly arrangements of  disulphide bonds in proteins  are disrupted , which  results in the formation of inter chains bonds among   disulphide bonds, making the protein molecules to link together.This explains the reason for the 3-D structure disruption  and formation of  a macro molecule.

However,   the  addition of reducing agent ,  breaks the covalent disulphide bonds.   While detergent breaks the interchain bonds among the disulphide bonds.  (The noncovalent bonds),These combined effects untangled the  mesh networks of polypeptides formed, and reduces the hardened nature,

What has to happen before mitosis begins?
Leokris [45]

Mitosis is simply a stage in a cells life cycle, which could be broken down further into stages of mitosis. The rest (so not mitosis) is know as Interphase and is where the cell does its normal function, so if it's the cell is in a region of muscle it would contract/relax as normal etc.

Immediately before mitosis (or M phase) is what's know as G2 phase, where the G stands for growth and is where particular gene pathways are expressed to promote growth of the volume of DNA (chromosomes are duplicated, so from 46 to 92). At the end of this stage is a checking process where the DNA is scrutinised for any errors, if all is okay then the cell can proceed to mitosis, if not then the process is stopped so that errors in copying the DNA can be fixed. This is know as a restriction point and the cell must meet the requirements to pass. This is often seen as a way cells can prevent damage being replicated and therefore interfering with normal cell processes. When cells are cancerous they are able to override this and therefore divide and spread the damaged DNA.
