<h2>Collagen genes is the best choice</h2>

Explanation:

Collagen is the most abundant protein in mammals

  • Collagen is found in bones,muscles,tendons and skin
  • It is the one which holds the body together
  • It strengthen and support many tissues in the body
  • Collagen genes encode many types of collagen which have a structural role in the extracellular matrix and has a great tensile strength
  • At least 26 different collagen polypeptide chains are present which are encoded by 26 unique collagen genes
  • Since collagen is the main protein of connective tissue in animals and is considered as the most abundant protein in mammals it can be the best choice to base the phylogeny
  • Rest all options are specific for a particular function in particular animals

When providing care for a child immediately after a bone marrow aspiration, which nursing action is priority?
xxMikexx [17]

Answer: Monitor the site dressing and vital signs.

Explanation:

The bone marrow is the soft tissue inside bones that helps form blood cells. It is made up of a liquid part and a more solid part.  And it is found in the hollow part of most bones. The bone marrow is

The biopsy and bone marrow aspiration are usually done at the same time. Together, these two procedures may be called a bone marrow study.

Marrow aspiration is the removal of a small amount of this tissue in liquid form for testing. Bone marrow biopsy and bone marrow aspiration are procedures that allow samples of bone marrow (the spongy tissue inside some of the longer bones) to be removed and tested.  In a bone marrow biopsy, the doctor uses a needle to remove a sample of the solid part. In a bone marrow aspiration, a needle is used to remove a sample of the liquid part.

<u>Bone marrow aspiration and biopsy may indicate whether the bone marrow is healthy and producing normal amounts of blood cells</u>. Doctors use these procedures to diagnose and monitor blood and marrow diseases, such as some cancers and fevers of unknown origin.  <u>After the procedure, it is important to control the wound so that it does not become infected, and to monitor vital signs.</u>

A cell membrane that transports glucose, ions, or other charged or polar molecules is likely to have a higher percentage and gre
erica [24]

Answer: True

Explanation:

<u>A cell membrane consists of a lipid bilayer made of polar phosphate head and a nonpolar lipid tail.</u> It is semipermeable and regulates the transport of materials through it. For this,<u> it is selectively permeable</u> and since it is made of lipids, hydrophobic and small polar molecules can diffuse easily through it by simple diffusion and down their concentration gradient. However, polar molecules, large molecules (such as glucose) and ions are not able to pass through it because they are repelled.

To accomplish the transport of these molecules that can not diffuse, proteins embebbed in the membrane function as carriers that enable the transport of polar molecules, large molecules and ions by passive (through facilitated diffusion, down its concentration gradient) or active transport (movement against its concentration gradient).
