The answer is true. They are used as tracer elements where they are introduced into the body of a patient and the uptake of the radioactive isotopes by particular tissues is followed. This differential uptake of the isotopes by tissues results to diagnosis of a particular disorder or illness in the body.

umka21 [38]

Answer:

Defective collagen proteins affect an individuals joints, as <u>collagen is an important component protein in body</u><u> connective tissues</u>

Explanation:

Collagen is a crucial protein in the extracellular matrix of various connective tissues in body (tendons, ligaments, muscles). It constitutes major protein component in mammals body.

Collagen Vascular disease is a group of diseases affecting 'collagen' connecting tissue. Apart from inheritance, they can con occur due to autoimmune disease.

The physical world around us behaves as it does partly because it’s made of a huge number of tiny molecules, each behaving rando
eduard
1. Weird things like the one described above do not happen on a ramdom basis becuause molecules usually move within any enclosure in a ramdom manner. Thus, it is not possible for some types of particles to aggregate in one point while other types of molecule aggreagate in another point. Based on the kinetic energy that is available for each particle, each particle will move random
through the available space, colliding with one another and with the wall of container.

2. It will be a difficult thing to live in a Maxwell' demon world because, things will happen unpredictably and one will never know what to expect next because anything can happen at anytime. For instance, if one is drinking a glass of water, some of the particles of the water may just decide to aggregate to one part of the cup and start boiling. So, for someone who is taking a glass of water, the water may start boiling right inside his mouth when he is drinking, that will be a bad experience. When one is driving a car, the petrol particles may just decide to freeze up when one is busy speeding on the highway; that can cause a very serious accident. Thus, a world where the Maxwell law operates will be a chaotic world.
