The Flexor hallucis longus originates on the lower 2/3 of posterior
fibula, the tendon goes down, passes in flexor retinaculum, crosses the
posterior ankle joint, enters the plantar surface of the foot and
inserts at the base of the distal phalanx of Hallux<span>.</span>
Cell specialization allows new cells to develop into a range of different tissues, all of which work together to make living organisms function as a whole. The process of cell specialization exactly how cells develop into their diverse forms is complex.
Answer:
Stage REM Sleep
Explanation:
According to the AASM (American Association for Sleep Medicine), the sleep has five stages. The first is the stage of wakefulness when you are starting to feel drowsy. Then the stage N1 is the transition into sleep: the breath becomes shallow, and the body doesn't move or just a little. In stage N2 the physiological function of the body start to decrease and is more difficult to wake up than the stage before. The next stage is the N3, which is the stage when is more difficult to wake up from all stages because is the deepest sleep, and in this stage, the movement of the eyes stops. The last stage is REM,(rapid eye movements), in this stage the brain is more active but the body is paralyzed.
Answer:
<u>The disadvantages of 'bio-magnification are:</u>
<u>Impact on Human Health</u>
Biomagnification makes humans more prone to cancer, kidney problems, liver failure, birth defects, respiratory disorders, and heart diseases.
<u>Effects on Reproduction and Development of Marine Creatures</u>
The toxic chemicals accumulate in the important organs of aquatic organisms that affect their reproduction and development processes.
For eg., the shells of the eggs of the sea-birds are very thin that might get crushed by the birds themselves during incubation. The toxic chemicals, mercury and selenium destroy the reproductive organs of aquatic creatures.
<u>Destruction of Coral Reefs</u>
Cyanide that is used in leaching gold and fishing is the main cause of the destruction of coral reefs. Coral reefs are the dwelling and feeding grounds for many sea creatures. Their destruction affects the lives of many aquatic animals.
<u>Disruption of Food Chain</u>
The chemicals and toxins which are released into the water bodies disrupt the food chain. The small organisms absorb the toxins which are eaten up by larger animals. These toxins, thus, get accumulated in the higher level of organisms.
When Sarah performed this experiment, she changed the levels of nitrogen in order to observe the changes in the morphological features of the plant.
All of the characteristics of the plant that she observed were dependent on multiple different things, but the level of nitrogen was an independent variable that she was changing at her will.
