The talocrural joint is formed by the _____,_____, and _____

Biology
1 answer:

Answer:

a. Tibia

b. Fibula

c. Talus

Explanation:

The ankle joint consists of three bones: the fibula, the tibia and the talus. The first two make up a vault in which the dome of the third fits. It allows, above all, forward and backward turning movements, which are flexion and extension movements of the foot. In the lateral sense, the tops of the peroneal maleolus and tibial maleolus, which are the two bony appendages that continue fibula and tibia on both sides and downward, prevent a complete movement of lateral rotation although they do allow their onset.

The talus rests on the calcaneus (the bone that forms the heel) forming a fairly flat joint, without great movement. This subastragaline joint is a source of conflict as it supports the transmission of body weight forces and governs fine movements of foot stability. When the cartilage of this joint deteriorates, an arthritic degeneration and pain occurs, which sometimes forces surgical intervention to suppress or relieve it.

Which of the following offspring genotypes could result from the fertilization of an egg that had undergone nondisjunction in me
Lorico [155]

Answer:

See explanation below

Explanation:

<em>Non-disjunction occur as a result of lack of separation of homologous chromosomes during meiosis. </em>

As a result, the gametes (the daughter cells formed) produced end up having extra or lesser chromosomes as compared to a normal gamete.

When a gamete with extra chromosome fertilizes a normal gamete, the resulting offspring will have an extra chromosome (trisomy condition).

On the other hand, when a gamete with one less chromosome than normal fertilizes a normal gamete, the resulting offspring will have one less chromosome than normal offspring (monosomy condition).

Assuming a chromosome with Aa gene undergoes non disjunction during meiosis, the resulting gametes either contain both A and a chromosome or contain no chromosome at all.

If Aa gamete is fertilized by a normal haploid sperm (a), the resulting zygote will have the genotype Aaa.

If a gamete with no chromosome at all fertilizes a normal haploid sperm, the resulting offspring will have the genotype a.
