The correct answer is "they originate as pockets, rather than forming continuous tubes".
Lymphatic capillaries are very small vessels located between cells. Their function is to absorb and process extracellular fluid. They have very thin walls and larger diameter than blood capillaries. Another important characteristic is that they have closed ends, permitting the extracellular fluid to flow in but not out.

5. Challenge: A chemical equation is balanced when each side of the equation includes the same number of each type of atom.
svp [43]

A chemical equation is said to be balanced when the number of atoms of each element on the reactant side is equal to the number of atoms of those elements on the product side.

The process of photosynthesis involves carbon dioxide and water, which reacted together to form glucose and oxygen. The balanced equation for photosynthesis is given below:

6H2O + 6CO2 = C6H12O6 + 6O2.

Looking at this chemical equation, you will discover that: there are 12 atom of hydrogen, 18 atoms of oxygen and 6 atoms of carbon on both sides of the equation.

Which is most compromised in the seated dental professional?
Black_prince [1.1K]
The most compromised part of the body in the seated dental professional is the lumbar curve. The dental professional most of the time works seated or rotated at the hips. The human adult spine has normally three curves: the cervical (neck), the thoracic (middle back) and the lumbar (lower back). The lumbar curve plays a very important part in keeping the body's balance in an upright position. When working seated, the whole body tilts forward or twists, two situations that apply great pressure on the lower back.
