Answer:
This question is asking to identify the directional relationship between the following organs. They are explained below.
Explanation:
1. The heart is MEDIAL to the lungs because it is located towards the middle in relation to the right and left lungs.
2. The knee is DISTAL to the hip because it is farther away from the point of attachment of the hip joint.
3. The wrist is PROXIMAL to the hand because the wrist is closest to the point of origin of the hand.
4. The mouth is INFERIOR to the nose because it is lower in direction to the nose.
5. The thorax is SUPERIOR to the abdomen because it is located above the abdomen.
6. The thumb is DISTAL to the ring finger because it is far away from the ring finger.
7. The sternum is ANTERIOR to the heart because it lies in front of the heart
8. The skull is SUPERFICIAL to the scalp because it is close to the body surface.
9. The ears are LATERAL to the nose because it is towards the middle line of the nose
10. Dorsal refers to the BACK of the human body, while ventral refers to the FRONT of the human body.
Most bacteria live in a solution that is hypotonic relative to the cytoplasm of the bacteria. This means that the bacterial cell is constantly taking in water. The cell wall of a bacterium is a peptidoglycan polymer that is tightly cross-linked. This would therefore function to:_________-.
A. regulate the flow of most molecules into and out of the bacterial cell.
B. provide a rigid wall that prevents the cell from swelling.
C. provide a rigid wall that prevents the cell from shrinking.
D. confirm a close relationship to plant cells that have a similar structure and live in hypotonic solutions.
E. make all bacteria fairly uniform in metabolic chemistry.
Answer:
B. provide a rigid wall that prevents the cell from swelling.
Explanation:
When organisms are present in hypotonic surroundings, their cells that are in contact with the surroundings tend to gain water. Bacteria present in hypotonic solution would gain water as their cells are hypertonic than the surroundings. The entry of water would increase the volume of cytoplasm and could lead to the bursting of the cell. However, the presence of a cell wall made up of cross-linked peptidoglycan prevents the swelling of the bacterial cell and allow them to survive in hypotonic surroundings.
