The answer would be: III. Many genes may be responsible for obesity so it is currently not possible to determine whether Doug is destined for obesity.

Answer I is a stretch, he might not become obese just because of his genetic mutation. Answer IV is completely irrational, and Answer II is too unsure to be able to say for certain.

Anuta_ua [19.1K]

Answer:

The question is asking us to mention the name of the organ shed off during the menstrual cycle. Specifically, it says, once a female reaches puberty, the uterus sheds an unfertilized egg along with the.... uterine wall - that is the correct answer. The Uterine wall is how the female body prepares for pregnancies, and it is there to protect and nurture the child - so if the pregnancy does not occur, it is shed.

BigorU [14]

Answer:B---You will need to hold your head completely still during the examination

Explanation:

A CT scan  of the brain is a diagnostic imaging procedure that uses special X-rays measurements to produce cross sectional images of the brain so as to  provide an extra detailed information or data about brain tissue and structure concerning issues related to injuries or diseases of the brain.

During a brain CT, the X-ray beam moves in a circle around the body,and the scanner of the Ct SCAN xray  starts to rotate around the body detecting the  marked brain's tissues and then transmits the data to the computer. The computer will transmit the data fed into it into an image containing information that can interpreted by the radiologist.

One important procedure amongst others is to remain very still during the procedure so as to allow the right view to be captured by the scanner.
