Answer:

Explanation:

The lesser tubercle is smaller and more medially located on the bone. It only has an anterior surface. The lesser tubercle provides attachment for the last rotator cuff muscle which is the subscapularis. The intertubercular sulcus Separates the two tubercles.

Answer:

It has an anterior and posterior face. The greater tubercle serves as attachment site for three of the rotator cuff muscles – supraspinatus, infraspinatus and teres minor – they attach to superior, middle and inferior facets respectively. The lesser tubercle is much smaller, and more medially located on the bone

Which of the following is not a characteristic of pioneer species ?
Irina-Kira [14]

Answer:

They remain in an environment,even as more competitive species arrive

Explanation:

Pioneer species, in ecological succession, are the first set of organisms to colonize a bare area of land or a disturbed area of land. Pioneer species include lichens, grasses, fungi etc.

Pioneer species have unique characteristics that distinguishes them from every other species of organism. These include:

- They facilitate environmental change, making an environment more habitable for other species.

- They tolerate a wide range of environmental conditions.

- They are capable of colonizing a barren environment, as in primary succession.

However, pioneer species do not remain in an environment, even as more competitive species arrive. They rather give way for new species to emerge and dominate.

Which of the following best describes cell communication processes that are present in bacteria, yeast, and multicellular organi
Savatey [412]

Answer:

They release chemical messengers to communicate with cells they may or may not be in direct contact with.

Explanation:

Unicellular organisms such as bacteria or yeast, 'talk' to each other through the release of chemicals. In bacteria, this is known as quorum sensing which allows them to determine the surrounding bacterial population density. In yeast, one of the more popular pathways is known as the mating factor pathway, which allow the organisms to find mates. Whereas, in multicellular organisms (such as humans), this chemical release allows for cell-cell co-ordination which keeps the system functioning correctly.

Round pea allele R is dominant to wrinkled pea allele r, while yellow pea allele Y is dominant to green pea allele y. Homozygous
allsm [11]

Answer:

RrYy (F1 generation)

Explanation:

This is a typical dihybrid cross involving two genes in the pea plant; one coding for seed colour and the other for seed shape.

According to Mendel's law of dominance, an allele is capable of masking another allele in a gene, the allele that masks or is expressed is called the DOMINANT allele while the allele being masked is called RECESSIVE allele.

Homozygosity of a gene refers to it having the same type of alleles while heterozygosity refers to having different alleles.

In this example, allele for Round (R) and Yellow (Y) pea is dominant over the allele for Wrinkled (r) and green pea respectively.

Homozygous round green pea (RRyy) crossed with Homozygous wrinkled yellow (rrYY) will give rise to a heterozygous round yellow (RrYy) F1 offsprings.
