This is a case of a patient that needs his subtalar joint to be immobilized by the fusion of supporting bones. This is called arthrodesis and the corresponding CPT code for arthrodesis procedures in the foot and toes is CPT 28715. The patient also underwent bone grafting from the fibula to fill in the defects in the talus. The CPT code for general grafts or implants procedures in the musculoskeletal system is CPT 20902-51.
All living creatures are classified into systems and sub-systems based on their similar characteristics. They are divided from bigger groups into smaller groups based on the detail of their similarities i.e. how they look, move, reproduce and how they relate to each other. A practical way of understanding the classification of living organisms is that organisms are linked to other similar organisms via family trees. The classification of all living creatures includes at least four levels: order, families, genus and species.

Answer:
Wegener presented a number of evidence to prove his plate tectonic theory, such as :
- The matching of rocks on each side of the Atlantic Ocean like a puzzle.
- His knowledge hat organisms such as freshwater reptiles were found in almost all continents
- He also identified organisms that live in different continents, and could not possibly cross over to the other continents due to water bodies (oceans) separating the continents.
Wegener's plate tectonic theory caused doubts to other scientists, because of the way he presented his evidence. Other scientists considered his mechanisms unrealistic
