Answer;
Inferior angle
The bony projection that occurs bilaterally on the posterior aspect at mid-thorax is the Inferior angle of the scapula.

Explanation;
Inferior angle of the scapula is where the vertebral and axillary borders intersect. It is located at the lowest part of the scapula and is covered by the latissimus dorsi muscle. It is positioned where the vertebral border, called the medial border, meets the axillary border, called the lateral border.

The inferior angle of the scapula is the bony projection that occurs bilaterally on the posterior aspect at the mid-thorax.

The inferior angle of the scapula is formed by the unification of the medial and lateral borders of the scapula. It is thick and rough and its posterior or dorsal part serves as an attachment to the Teres major muscle, to which the latissimus dorsi glides over.

Skeletal remains are discovered at an archeological site. X-rays of the femur show evidence of a thin epiphyseal plate. This bon

Basile [38]

Answer:

The correct option is D. 18 year old male

Explanation:

The epiphyseal plate can be described as a disc of cartilage that is required for the growth of bones. The epiphyseal plates get fused in females at a very early age, most probably between the ages of 13 to 15. In males, the epiphyseal plates fuse a litter later at about 15 to 18 years.

Hence, the presence of epiphyseal plates in the femur would prove that it was present in an 18-year-old male.

All the other options would be false because they won't contain an epiphyseal plate.

The ________ does most of the focusing of the light onto the retina, and the ________ allows for more accuracy of focusing.

sukhopar [10]

The answer is cornea…..lens. Most bending of light entering the eye is bent by the cornea. The lens of the other hand adjusts this bending further, to focus it squarely on the retina. This is why the focal point of the lens can be adjusted by changing its shape.

yanalaym [24]

Answer:

Placing salty water in A and distilled water in B.

Explanation:

The fastest net rate of water movement into the A-side will occur if we place salty water on that side and distilled water in the other one. The reason for this is that the A-side contains a higher concentration of solute than B. So, the water will pass the semipermeable membrane and go to the A-side to valance the concentrations on both sides. As we can see, there is an increase in the net rate of water movement into A.
