Answer:

true

Explanation:

The anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) is a band of dense connective tissue which courses from the femur to the tibia. The ACL is a key structure in the knee joint, as it resists anterior tibial translation and rotational loads.

The ACL has a microstructure of collagen bundles of multiple types (mostly type I) and a matrix made of a network of proteins, glycoproteins, elastic systems, and glycosaminoglycans with multiple functional interactions.

Always check for a pulse

If person has collapsed like in this scenario, someone else should call an ambulance while you continue to assess the situation (unless you are the only person their to help. If so, begin the defibrillator process first then call after you have finished all instructions given).

Have someone else run to get the nearest defibrillator possible.

The defibrillator itself with start to talk, telling you instruction you must follow carefully, once those instructions are complete make sure you have absolutely no contact with the body as it will start its electrical pulse

If by chance the person has their wallet accessible anywhere beside their clothing (thing purse or maybe they had dropped it earlier) try to get as much information as possible about the person to the emergency services as possible)

Things to look for are drivers license, business card, sometimes a medical card if this person has any other medical problems (if so tell emergency services if they are still on the phone at this point or when they arrive on the scene)

Send someone outside to wait for emergency services to guide them to wear you are at and never leave the patient alone

Choose a particular strategy used for either offense or defense in a sport of your choice. Describe the strategy and explain wha
Brrunno [24]
I'm football when a team is on the defense they often go into a formation known as zone. When in this formation, each player covers a certain area. This way instead of having to cover a specific player, they have the ability to cover multiple players of the opposing team, point them out to their teammates, and better predict where/how the opposing team will move or what they plan to do. Although this isn't the most effective position for protecting from runs, it is very effective at protecting from passes. This is because when in zone formation, the defense is mostly playing the field, meaning they are almost all in the field preventing the Quarterback from making effective passing plays.

Which two structures of a frog would most likely have the same chromosome number?
KonstantinChe [14]
A) Due to the joining of the two gametes (sperm cell and egg which both have 23 chromosomes, the fertilised egg has 46 chromosomes) and because a skin cell is a normal cell (not a sex cell) it has 46 chromosomes.
You can automatically eliminate choice B because a zygote is the name for the cell produced when a sperm cell and egg joins, meaning it now has both 23 chromosomes from each of the sex cells, meaning it has 46 chromosomes. Sperm cells only ever have 23 chromosomes.
