The lateral malleolus found on the distal lateral surface of the fibula is responsible for the bony bulge on the lower leg. 

The lateral malleolus is the prominence on the outer or lateral side of the ankle. It is pyramidal in form and somewhat flattened. In clinical significance, a bimalleolar fracture is an ankle fracture that involves both the medial and lateral malleolus. This condition is more common in women especially the 60 year old age group. Another clinical condition of the said anatomical structure is the trimalleolar fracture which involves the lateral, medial, and the distal posterior aspect of the tibia or the posterior malleolus. This is primarily caused by ligament damage and dislocation.

Question 10
stich3 [128]

Answer:

<h2>Its true!!</h2>

Explanation:

Actually the haemoglobin molecule consists of 2 parts, the haem which is a prosthetic group and the other globin which is a protein. So the haemoglobin as is a protein so, is arranged in quaternary structure of protein which contains 4 subunits. The subunits depend upon the organism whose haemoglobin is being talked about. So the normal haemoglobin found in red blood cells contains 2 alpha subunits + 2 beta subunits. At the centre of each subunit there is the haem part attached. To the centre of haem the Fe3+ ion are present which actually attaches to 1 Oxygen molecule. So as 4 subunits are present and each subunit has 1 Fe3+ ion, so total 4 Oxygen molecules can bind to the 1 Hb molecule!!
