The tarsals, metatarsals and phalanges of your foot provide the contact surface that strikes the ball. The tibia and tarsals form your ankle joint, which must stay slightly flexed but rigid when you kick so that no power is lost. Your knee joint, consisting of the tibia and femur, extends as your thigh muscles contract and your hip, which is made up of your femur and ilium, swings forward in a movement called hip flexion.

The blood Group of Mother is O. The Blood Group of the Child is B. Man Exonerated If He to Blood Group?

aalyn [17]

Answer:

If the mother's blood type is O, and the child's blood type is B, a man would be exonerated from paternity if he has blood type A or O.

Explanation:

In the above case, if a mother has blood type O and her child has blood type B, a man can be exonerated from paternity only if his blood type is A or O, and responsible if he is type B or AB.

The blood type is defined by the presence of surface antigens in the red blood cell, called A and B. The presence of each antigen is determined by a gene present on the parental chromosomes.

Blood type A corresponds to the presence of gene A, and its genotypic expression can be A/A or A/O.
Type B blood, whose genotype is B/B or B/O, is due to the presence of a gene containing the B antigen.
AB blood —due to codominance— has one gene for A and another for B, with genotype A/B.
Blood type O, characterised by the absence of surface antigens, behaves like a recessive trait, which only manifests itself in the absence of surface antigens A and B. The genotype is O/O.

By making a hypothetical crossing between mother and man, one can observe why he can be exonerated.

Man with blood type O

♂ O|O

♀ O|O

Alleles O O

O O|O O|O

The only possibility, in this case, is to have children with type O blood. No chance of children B.

Male with blood type A

♂ A|O

♀ O|O

Alleles A O

O A|O O|O

In this case there is a 50% chance that the children will be blood type A and 50% chance that they will be O. No chance of children B.

In the case of a man A|A the result is 100% probability of children A|O, and no probability of children B.

So, a man with blood types A (any genotype) and O, can be exonerated from paternity, since it is impossible for him to have a child of blood type B, when the mother is of blood type O.

Atoms with a low electronegativity, like calcium, might bond with ____________.

TiliK225 [7]

The answer is A.The calcium atom must bond with an atom of high electronegativity (like fluorine) because the higher electronegativity atom will bully the low electronegativity atom and take away its electrons.

These are the choices:

A. an atom with a high electronegativity, like fluorine

B. another atom with a low electronegativity, like lithium

C. another atom that would like to share electrons

D. no other atoms because it's too weak to bond with anything
