Answer:

The <u>shape in V</u> of the vomerine teeth is useful to <u>hook the prey and hold i</u>t until the frog can swallow it.  

Explanation:  

In frogs, we can distinguish maxillary teeth, premaxillary teeth, and Vomerine teeth.

Vomerine teeth are projections of the vomer bone, located in the anterior part of the paladar and between the internal nares.

Vomerine teeth are specialized structures that help frogs catch and hold their prey. They are not involved in chewing or killing (frogs swallow the entire prey alive), just holding the creature before swallowing it.

These projections are covered by soft tissue. When the frog catches the prey, presses the tongue against the roof of your mouth. The vomerine teeth hook the prey and prevent it from slipping or wandering away.

The<u> shape in V</u> of the vomerine teeth is useful <u>to hook the prey and hold it </u>until the frog can swallow it.

Choose all of the areas in which the United States invoked the Roosevelt Corollary to the Monroe Doctrine.
LekaFEV [45]

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Unfortunately, you did not attach the options to answer this question.

What we can do to help you is commenting on the following.

Throughout history, the United States invoked the Roosevelt Corollary to the Monroe Doctrine to accomplish some imperialistic and interventionists goals in different Central American and South American countries.

We can set some examples here. For instance, that was the case of the US intervention in the Island of Cuba, in Nicaragua, Dominican Republic, Hati, and the US presence for so many years in the Panama Canal.

Let's have in mind that the Roosevelt Corollary to the Monroe Doctrine was originally called for intervening in Latin American countries that could not pay their debt to European creditors.

The message the US wanted to convey to European superpowers that had interests in this region was that from now on, it was going to be the US business to intervene in the Americas. If Europe tried to intervene, it was going to be understood as direct aggression to the United States.

What type of chromosomal abnormality can lead to multiple copies of a gene, some of which can incur mutations that can lead to t
koban [17]

A trisomy is a chromosomal condition characterized by an additional chromosome. A person with a trisomy has 47 chromosomes instead of 46.

Trisomy means the presence of an extra chromosome in some or all of the body's cells. This results in a total of three copies of that chromosome instead of the normal two copies. For example, Down syndrome (trisomy 21) is caused by having three copies of chromosome 21 instead of the usual two copies.

This genetic condition is the result of a genetic mutation where your cells don't divide as they should. You can't prevent this abnormality from happening during cell division.
