<h3>Answer:</h3>

Foramen magnum is a gap at the bottom of the skull near the anterior perspective of the occipital bone by which the spinal cord joins the cranium.

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

The foramen magnum is a big oval hole (foramen) in the occipital ossein of the scalp in people and several other creatures. It is one of the various ovals or round openings (foramina) in the bottom of the scalp. The spinal cord, an expansion of the medulla, moves by the foramen magnum as it exits the cranial cavity. Aside from the release of the medulla oblongata and its layers, the foramen magnum carries the vertebral veins, the anterior and last spinal veins, the tectorial layers and alar ligaments.

What blood types are possible for a child whose parents both have AB blood type?
erma4kov [3.2K]

Answer:

-blood type a

-blood type b

-SOMETIMES type o but very rarely.

Explanation:

Each biological parent donates one of their two ABO alleles to their child. A mother who is blood type O can only pass an O allele to her son or daughter. A father who is blood type AB could pass either an A or a B allele to his son or daughter. While a child could have the same blood type as one of his/her parents, it doesn't always happen that way. For example, parents with AB and O blood types can either have children with blood type A or blood type B.

“Photosynthesis converts carbon dioxide and water into oxygen and glucose. Glucose is used as food by the plant and oxygen is a by-product. Cellular respiration converts oxygen and glucose into water and carbon dioxide. Water and carbon dioxide are by- products and ATP is energy that is transformed from the process.”
