The answer is Abduction. In medicine and biomechanics, movements of limbs and other body parts toward or away from the center line of the body are termed as adduction and abduction respectively. Adduction is the movement of a body part toward the body's midline. Abduction is the movement away from the mid line. For example, abduction of the shoulder raises the arms out to the sides of the body.
<span>The movement of alleles from one population to another is called gene flow. Other alleles will likely increase in frequency and become fixed. These changes in allele frequencies that are due to chance are called genetic drift. Genetic drift causes a loss of genetic diversity in a population.</span>
Answer:
It represents an acceleration.
Explanation:
The sloping line shows that the speed of the object is changing. The object is either speeding up or slowing down. If the line slopes upward from left to right, this means the object is speeding up.
Let’s say John’s age is x. Jim’s age is y. And Dana’s age is z. Then the equation would be:
1.) x + y + z = 167.
We also know that John (x) is 3 years older that Jim (y), so we can make the equation:
2.) y + 3 = x
We know that Jim (y) is 4 years younger than half of Dana’s age (z), so we can make this equation:
3.) z/2 - 4 = y
Now we can combine these equations so that we only have one variable remaining.
The second and third equation can combine to create:
4.) (z/2 - 4) + 3 = x
Then combine the first, third, and fourth equations to have only z as a variable.
5.) ((z/2 - 4) + 3) + (z/2 - 4) + z = 167
Simplify the fifth equation by isolating the variable:
z = 86
Dana’s age is 86. Now plug this into the remaining equations.
86/2 - 4 = 39
Jim is 39. Plug this number into the second equation.
39 + 3 = 42.
John is 42.
FINAL ANSWER:
John = 42
Jim = 39
Dana = 86
