The diagnosis was that the extreme eversion and plantar flexion that occurred during the fall resulted in a severe dislocation o

f the ankle joint proper (talocrural joint) and spraining of the ankle at the calcaneofibular ligament. The surgeon stated that she would perform a reduction of the dislocation and then attempt to repair the injured ligament using arthroscopy. Which bones would have been dislocated?
a. Calcaneus, talus, and tibia
b. Talus, tibia and fibula
c. Talus and fibula

Answer:

b. Talus, tibia and fibula

Explanation:

In this scenario, the diagnosis was that the extreme eversion and plantar flexion that occurred during the fall resulted in a severe dislocation of the ankle joint proper (talocrural joint) and spraining of the ankle at the calcaneofibular ligament. The surgeon stated that she would perform a reduction of the dislocation and then attempt to repair the injured ligament using arthroscopy. Thus, the bones which would have been dislocated are talus, tibia and fibula.

Generally, when the anterior cruciate ligament which is one of the key ligaments that stabilizes the knee joint is damaged, a surgeon would have to perform a reconstruction. The tibia bone is a shinbone and it is connected by the anterior cruciate ligament with the femur (thighbone).

Basically, the ankle joint is made up of three (3) main bones and these are the tibia, talus and fibula, thus, they would all need to be repaired by the surgeon through arthroscopy.

Changes in membrane potential serve as signals to cells within the body – and can often be a drug target in the treatment of man
Vedmedyk [2.9K]

Answer:

    The membrane is actually semi-permeable.

Explanation:

    The membrane being semi-permeable means that, not all the things come in and out of the cell, only if it's really needed. The cell works in a gradient way, and that means that, to balance things, the cell will put in it a substance in a very high concentration outside of it, just to balance things. And this would happen to potassium, the cell would put it inside to balance this gradient, and once all sides have the same amount of potassium, it will stop, and the gradient is finally equal.

If cells are placed in a hypertonic solution containing a solute to which the membrane is impermeable, what could happen?
finlep [7]

Answer: A

 The cells would lose water and shrink. In a hypertonic solution, the concentration of solute is higher than water in a cell. With this, there is a net movement of water from inside to outside initiating water to lose from the cytoplasm and vacuole causing the cell to shrink due to osmosis and achieve equilibrium.

This process is applied in food preservation where microbial cells will be dehydrated in a hypertonic environment, making them malfunction and preventing them to cause food spoilage.
