What is the smallest part in your body

What’s the smallest muscle in the human body? The stapedius, in your middle ear, measures about 1mm in size (or 1/26 of an inch). Connected to the stapes bone, it contracts to pull back the stapes and help protect your inner ear from loud noises. The stapedius also contracts to keep your own voice from sounding too loud in your head.
What’s the smallest bone in the human body?
Conveniently, that would be the stapes. It is one of three tiny bones in the middle ear that convey sound from the outer ear to the inner ear. Collectively called the ossicles, these bones are individually known as the malleus, incus, and stapes. Those are Latin words for the shapes the bones resemble: a hammer, anvil, and stirrup.
What’s the smallest organ in the human body?
You’ll find the pineal gland near the center of the brain, in a groove between the hemispheres. It’s not an organ like those in the abdominal cavity. It’s the human body’s smallest endocrine gland, and it produces melatonin, a hormone (derived from serotonin) that affects how we sleep, wake up, and react to seasonal changes. It’s called pineal because it’s shaped like a little pinecone.
What’s the smallest blood vessel in the human body? <span>Capillaries, the smallest, thinnest-walled blood vessels in the body, connect veins and arteries. They can be as small as 5-10 micrometers wide — or 50 times thinner than a baby’s hair. Each of us contains about 10 billion of them, with the average adult body containing about 25,000 miles of capillaries.</span>

A scan of Sam's genome for the 100 most common mutations known to cause RP didn't find anything. How can you explain this result
yan [13]

Answer:

He is either not carrying the gene for RP or the RP gene has mutated.

Explanation:

RP or Retina Pigmentosa is an eye defect inherited by a person from a parent. The disease is degenerative as the individual gradually loses his sight. It normally starts off as night-blindness and could go as bad as a total loss of sight.

The mutation of both the RPGR and RP2 genes which are responsible for the function and structure of light-reception in the eye accounts for most cases of Retina Pigmentosa disease.

Cross a person who does not have freckles and is heterozygous for dimples with a person who has
Alja [10]

Answer:

1. 1/2

2. 1/2

3. 1/4

Explanation:

Let the allele for freckles be A or a while that of dimples be B or b.

A person without freckles but heterozygous for dimples = aaBb

A person who has freckles (whose mother has no freckles) but no dimples = Aabb

      aaBb    x    Aabb

Offspring

4 AaBb - freckled and dimpled

4 Aabb - freckled and non dimpled

4 aaBb - non freckled and dimpled

4 aabb - non freckled and non dimpled

1. <em>Probability that the parents will have a dimpled child</em> = 8/16 or 1/2

2. <em>Probability that they will have a child with freckles</em> = 8/16 or 1/2

3. <em>Probability that they will have a child with freckles and dimples</em> = 4/16 or 1/4
