Answer; 
The answer is NO, some areas still remain to be converted to bone. 

Explanation;
Infant skull and an adult skull differ in quite a number of ways; these includes;
An adult skull is an eighth of the total body length whereas the fetal skull is a quarter of the total body length. Among other differences.
An infant skull's bones are separated by fontaneles, or soft spots while in an adult they are separated by satures. During birth, the infant skull is incompletely developed, and the fibrous membranes, called the fontanels, separate the cranial bones

Which of the following molecular motors is associated with intermediate filaments?
azamat

Answer: d. none of the other answers

Explanation:

Enzymes that turn chemical energy into mechanical work are molecular motors.

There are three main components of cytoskeleton including microtubules, actin filaments and Intermediate filaments. Only actin  filaments and microtubules carry the motor-driven transport on the cytoskeleton.

The most important feature of intermediate filaments is to provide the plasma membrane with mechanical support where it comes into contact with the extracellular matrix and other cells.

Unlike microtubules and microfilament , intermediate filaments are not involved in motility of the cells, hence do not associat with molecular motors.

Hence, the correct option is d.

Gas makes things buoyant, why ? And what are ways that this could be useful?
ryzh [129]

Answer:

Gas makes things buoyant by making the volume of an object lighter than the surrounding fluid it is trying to displace.

Gas Buoyancy is useful in the following ways;

• Airships

• Steel ships and

• All floating and flying vessels

Explanation:

Buoyancy is the tendency of an object to float in a fluid such as air or water. It is a phenomenon that was theorized by the mathematician, Archimedes known as the Archimedes Principle.

It states that the upward buoyant force that is exerted on a body immersed in a fluid is equal to the weight of the fluid that the body displaces.

The principle explains the reason why objects float and fly.

So, when an object is immersed in a fluid, it can float due to the upward force exerted by the fluid on the object. But for this to happen, the object has to weigh less than the fluid it is displacing.

This is where the use of a gas comes into play.

Because the object may be heavier than the surrounding fluid it is trying to displace, it is filled with a large amount of gas (usually hydrogen and/or helium) which is lighter. This makes the volume of the gas and the object put together lighter than that of the surrounding air.

This is what causes objects to float or fly

A remora hitching a ride on the shark is an example of which symbiotic relationship? A. Predator/prey B. Mutualism C. Parasitism
Lelechka [254]

Answer:

D. Commensalism

Explanation:

The relationship between a remora and a shark is an example of commensalism - it's good for one side but neither good nor bad for the other. The remora attaches itself to the shark and gets the benefit of eating the shark's leftovers, but there is no harm or benefit for the shark, and the shark doesn't eat the remora like in a predator/prey relationship.
