Answer: True
Explanation:
The dual energy x-ray absorptimetry is a technique that is used for measuring the bone mineral density. This technique utilizes the two X-ray beams with different levels of energy. The soft tissues are subtracted in this procedure and the beam is absorbed by the bone. This technique is useful for diagnosis of osteoporosis, to check and diagnose the infected, fractured and healing bones.
Fluid retention is a condition in which excess fluid due to capillary leakage or any other reason fills up inside the circulatory system, body tissues and cavities. The following symptoms will appear:
Discolored skin, aches and tenderness in the limbs, stiffness in joints and weight gain.
The retained excess fluid may react with the X-ray beam hence, will interfere in the process of diagnosis. Thus caution should be taken for such individuals.
Answer:
The gravitational pull between two objects increases as the distance between them decreases. The gravitational pull also increases with an increase in the mass of the objects. Earth has a large mass. So, when our bodies are close to Earth, the gravitational pull between us and the Earth is strong. This force pulls us down, so we stand firmly on the ground without floating in the air. Without the gravitational force, we would drift away from Earth.

Answer:
The correct answer would be 2,70,000 nucleotide long gene.
The gene refers to the protein coding sequence of the (deoxyribonucleic acid) DNA.
The nucleotide sequence of a gene corresponds to the codon sequence if mRNA. The codon sequence of mRNA then codes for the amino acid sequence of the protein.
The codon refers to the set of three nucleotide which codes for a specific amino acid. For example, CAG codes for glutamine, AUG codes for methionine et cetera.
So, if the polypeptide chain consists of 90,000 amino acids then it must contain 90,000 x 3 nucleotides which are equal to 2,70,000 nucleotides.

Explanation:
Lizards have a large number of very tiny hairs on the pads of their feet called setae. These tiny pads therefore drastically increase the surface area and come in intimate contact with the surface on which the lizard is crawling, so the Van der Waals forces kick in.
The larger the solute the slower the rate of diffusion. Smaller the solute, faster the rate of diffusion. If the shape of the solute has a large surface area then it'll have the faster rate of diffusion. Shape of solute that has a small Surface area, has a slower rate of diffusion
