Answer: Monitor the site dressing and vital signs.

Explanation:

The bone marrow is the soft tissue inside bones that helps form blood cells. It is made up of a liquid part and a more solid part.  And it is found in the hollow part of most bones. The bone marrow is

The biopsy and bone marrow aspiration are usually done at the same time. Together, these two procedures may be called a bone marrow study.

Marrow aspiration is the removal of a small amount of this tissue in liquid form for testing. Bone marrow biopsy and bone marrow aspiration are procedures that allow samples of bone marrow (the spongy tissue inside some of the longer bones) to be removed and tested.  In a bone marrow biopsy, the doctor uses a needle to remove a sample of the solid part. In a bone marrow aspiration, a needle is used to remove a sample of the liquid part.

<u>Bone marrow aspiration and biopsy may indicate whether the bone marrow is healthy and producing normal amounts of blood cells</u>. Doctors use these procedures to diagnose and monitor blood and marrow diseases, such as some cancers and fevers of unknown origin.  <u>After the procedure, it is important to control the wound so that it does not become infected, and to monitor vital signs.</u>

Deffense [45]

The correct answer is option (d) They allow the exchange of gases between cells in the leaf and the external environment.

Stomata are the tiny openings present in the epidermis (outer layer of cells) of the leaf. They have a pore which is guarded by the guard cells which controls the opening and closing of the stomata. Air enters and exits through the stomata.

The main funtion of stomata is to facilitate the gaseous exchange. The gas exchange that occurs when the stomata are open helps in the process of photosynthesis. During photosynthesis, carbon dioxide is taken in from the atmosphere and oxygen is released as a by-product of photosynthesis. The glucose produced is converted into the starch and stored in the leaves.

Also, water vapour diffuses through the stomata into the atmosphere by a process called the transpiration.

Thus, stomata are the structures that are mainly involved in the gaseous exchange between the cells of the leaf and the atmosphere.

How did Hershey and Chase know that it was the DNA that had infected the bacterial cells in their experiment?
miskamm [114]

Answer:

In their experiments, Hershey and Chase showed that when bacteriophages, which are composed of DNA and protein, infect bacteria, their DNA enters the host bacterial cell, but most of their protein does not. Hershey and Chase and subsequent discoveries all served to prove that DNA is the hereditary material.
