Answer:

Please find the sentence below

Explanation:

GENETICS is the study of individual genes present in the GENOME of an organism. In the GENOME, which is the complete set of GENES in an organism, genes that contain the information needed for the synthesis and transmission of useful products called PROTEINS undergo genetic expression. Gene expression involves two major processes viz: transcription and translation.

Transcription involves the synthesis of an mRNA from the information encoded by a GENE while translation involves the synthesis of a PROTEIN from the information encoded by the mRNA transcript. The produced protein is responsible for bringing about certain TRAITS, which are observable characteristics, in living organisms.

Therefore, the central dogma of biology is the process that sees GENE converted to mRNA and mRNA converted to PROTEIN.

Until the , only one-celled organisms lived on land, but during this period, plants became abundant.
Anestetic [448]

The answer is Silurian period (443 million to 416 million years ago). This was the era when life in the seas and oceans began to conquer land. This is associated with a period of warm climate, rising sea and ocean levels hence giving shallow-water grounds where reefs developed. Plants like bryophyte began to develop including the emergence of terrestrial arthropods

Answer:

Methemoglobinemia

Explanation:

Methemoglobinemia (also known as the blue baby syndrome), is a condition with multiple etiologies which is associated with the lack of oxygen in the blood. This syndrome affects the function of red blood cells by altering the amount of hemoglobin protein, which carries and distributes oxygen to the body. Methemoglobinemia may be acquired by exposure to drugs and/or toxins. In this regard, it has been shown that high levels of nitrates in the water may induce this syndrome in infants.

A synovial joint is surrounded by a two-layer ____________ which encloses a fluid-filled space called the ____________ . the out
zloy xaker [14]
<h3><u>Answer; </u></h3>

<em><u>-Joint capsule </u></em>

<em><u>-Synovial cavity </u></em>

A synovial joint is surrounded by a two layer<em><u> joint capsule</u></em> which encloses a fluid filled space called the <em><u>synovial cavity. </u></em>

<h3><u>Explanation; </u></h3>
  • <em><u>Synovial joint is a type of a joint that joins bone with fibrous joint capsule which is continuous with periosteum of the bones that have been joined.  </u></em>
  • <em><u>Joint capsule is an envelope that encloses the synovial joint and is also known as the articular capsule</u></em>.
  • Joint capsule comprises of an outer fibrous layer membrane and the inner synovial layer membrane.
<h3><u>Answer; </u></h3>

Dense connective tissue

The outer layer of this structure consists of <em><u>dense connective tissue</u></em> which is continuous with the periosteum of each bone

<h3><u>Explanation; </u></h3>
  • <em><u>The outer layer of the joint capsule is a fibrous membrane that is attached to the circumference of the articular end of each bone on the joint, therefore it surrounds the articulation.  </u></em>
  • This layer is made up of dense connective tissue which is irregular that is continuous with the periosteum of each bone in the joint. The tissue is a long spongy tissue
<h3><u>Answer; </u></h3>

Ligaments

The outer layer may be reinforced by<em><u> ligaments </u></em>which are bundles of collagenous fibers. Some of these bundles are part of the capsule while other are located outside of the capsule.

<h3><u>Explanation; </u></h3>
  • <em><u>Ligaments are fibrous connective tissues that help in the articulation of bones to other bones. Ligaments are bundles of collagenous fibers which appear as a crisscross bands which attach bone to bone and help in the stabilization of joints. </u></em>
  • <u><em>Ligaments surrounds a joint to give it support and also limits the movement of these joints. </em></u>Therefore when ligaments are damaged, the joints involved becomes unstable.
<h3><u>Answer; </u></h3>

Accessory structure

By definition, the structures, such as some ligaments, that are located outside the capsule are called<em><u> accessory structures. </u></em>

<h3><u>Explanation; </u></h3>
  • <em><u>The synovial joint such as the knee joint contains a synovial cavity and dense, irregular connective tissue which makes the joint capsule normally associated with accessory ligaments</u></em>. These structures are called the accessory structures of the synovial joints.
  • <em><u>The accessory structures are the pieces that help to strengthen and connect the joint. </u></em>They include the fibrocartilage, fat pads, tendons, Accessory, Extracapsular, intracapsular ligaments and the bursae.
<h3><u>Answer; </u></h3>

Synovial membrane

The inner layer of the joint capsule is <em><u>the synovial membrane,</u></em> consisting of loose connective tissue.

<h3><u>Explanation; </u></h3>
  • <em><u>Synovial membrane is a connective tissue which lines the inner surface of the joint capsules in a synovial joint and the tendon sheath. </u></em>It may be described as a layer that lines the cavities of synovial joints bursae and the tendon sheaths.
  • <u><em>The membrane functions to secrete the synovial fluid which lubricates the articulating joints.</em></u>  
<h3><u>Answer; </u></h3>

Synovial fluid  

The inner lining of the joint capsule secretes a fluid called <em><u>synovial fluid. </u></em>This fluid is viscous, and moistens and lubricates the surfaces within the joint capsule

<h3><u>Explanation; </u></h3>
  • <em><u>Synovial fluid is a special type of viscous fluid that is secreted by the synovial membrane in a synovial joint such as knee joint whose function is primarily lubrication of the joint. </u></em>
  • <em><u>The fluid contains special contents such as hyaluronan, lubricin and the interstitial fluid </u></em>which help in the reduction of friction between the articular cartilage of synovial joints when the joints are moving.
