Which is the correct breakdown and translation of the medical term vaginoperineotomy?

1 answer:

6 0

Hello!! I am going to break down the word first. Vagino means vagina, perineo means perineum (area between the anus and the scrotum), and tomy means to make an incision or cut. The translation would be to make an incision to repair a perineal tear (which means the vagina has separated from the anus). Perineal tears are usually caused by childbirth. I hope I helped and gave the answers you were looking for!! Have a great evening.

Please help me answer this its for a module 7 biology review

GREYUIT [131]

1. the theory that Earth's outer shell is divided into several plates that glide over the mantle
2. I am not sure
3. Earth's mantle contained convection cells that dissipated radioactive heat and moved the crust at the surface
4. supercontinent that existed during the late Paleozoic and early Mesozoic eras.
5. the theory that the outer rigid layer of the earth (the lithosphere) is divided into a couple of dozen "plates" that move around across the earth's surface relative to each other, like slabs of ice on a lake.
6. Africa and South America.
7. I am not sure
8. a small area or region with a relatively hot temperature in comparison to its surroundings.
9. As the plate moves over a fixed spot deeper in the Earth where magma (molten lava) forms, a new volcano can punch through this plate and create an island. The Hawaiian Islands are believed to be formed from one such 'hot spot'.

How is it possible that over 20 million living organisms on the planet are made up of only 5 types of nucleotide bases arranged

Tpy6a [65]

<h2>Answer</h2>

It is because of different arrangements of nucleotide bases.

<h2>Explanation</h2>

There are only five types of nucleotide basis are present in the genetic material which makes up the all the genetic information of the individuals. These nucleotides are named as Adenine, Thymine, Guanine, Cytosine and Uracil. In all the living beings on the earth, these only five nucleotides are present which decides their behaviour and functions on the earth. These five bases have features to get any arrangements according to the situation. Their different arrangement at the heredity material makes the difference in all living beings regarding their behaviour.

On a phylogenetic tree, which term refers to lineages that diverged from the same place?

Elden [556K]

Answer:

sister taxa

Explanation:

Groups departing from the same evolutionary node are called sister taxa and are evolutionarily closer to each other than groups departing from another node. Thus, we can say that the sister taxa are evolutionarily closer (related) to each other than to the taxa that did not diverge from the same place. Similarly we can say that taxa that did not diverge from the same place, cannot be called sister taxa and are distant evolutionary.

How enzymes inhibitions studies in the formulation and development of drugs

lesya [120]

Answer:

Enzyme inhibitors may alter the elimination rate of a particular drug or inhibit detoxication pathways

Explanation:

An enzyme inhibitor is a chemical compound capable of binding to an enzyme in order to reduce its activity. An enzyme inhibitor may bind to an active site and thus decreases the rate of reaction (direct inhibition). Enzyme inhibitors may act 1-to Inhibit detoxification enzymes and 2-reduce the elimination rate of enzyme drugs, thereby having dose-dependent toxicity effects. For example, many medicines are based on the inhibition of Cytochromes P450 (CYPs) proteins, which are a superfamily of enzymes required for drug metabolism.
