Answer:

The correct answer to the question: Downward slippage of the humeral head when relaxed may indicate an injury to the:_____ muscle, would be: the supraspinatus muscle.

Explanation:

The supraspinatus muscle, along with other major muscles, like the deltoid, help to provide stability to the shoulder joint and prevent the humeral head of the arm, from detaching from the glenoid cavity at the shoulder joint. Particularly during abduction of the arm, the supraspinatus muscle will adhere the head of the humerus towards the glenoid cavity, and prevent the bone from naturally falling away in a downward motion, from the cavity. When there is a lession to this muscle, there tends to be dislocation of the shoulder joint.

Hairpins often form at palindromic sequences in single strands of either rna or dna. however, several key features differentiate

AlekseyPX

Hairpin like structures are formed in both DNA and RNA but are common in RNA than in DNA. This is because DNA can be double stranded or single stranded while RNA is generally single stranded structure that can be double stranded only when it forms a hair pin like structure.
The features of hairpin structure in RNA are as follows:
1. This structure is a building block of many secondary structures of RNA.
2. The termination sequence during transcription also forms a hairpin loop like structure.
3. tRNA also forms a hairpin loop like structure and helps in the process of translation.
