Answer: The pathology described in the question is "testicular torsion".

The most sensitive physical exam that is specific to this pathology is testing for reflexes. The inner thigh of the affected side when rubbed should cause the testicle to contract; but in this pathology, it does not.

Explanation:

Testicular torsion is a condition caused by the twisting of the spermatic cord, which causes a loss of blood flow to the testicle. It is the leading cause of testicular loss in adolescent boys, if no surgical intervenvention is carried out as soon as possible.

19. If a scientist needs to use a large dataset to explore how corn grows in different soils, how would this data be classified?
Illusion [34]

<u>ANSWER:</u>

The correct option is B- Qualitative.

<u>EXPLANATION:</u>

When the growth of corn has to be recorded, the quality of the corn grown in different soils needs to be recorded. Qualitative methods are best used to classify quality of anything.

Qualitative data basically is non-numerical data which in the case of corns can be the length of the corn plant, the sweetness of the corn kernel or the hardness or softness of the corn. This data cannot be recorded using numerical values and so other methods of data recording cannot be used.

sergeinik [125]

The answer is; B is younger than D


In sedimentary rocks, the bottom layers are older that overlaying layers. This is because sediments are placed on top of each other by surface runoffs to ocean beds. Therefore, the first sediments to be deposited will always be towards the bottom as more and newer ones are brought in and deposited.
