The pectoral muscles are found on the anterior chest wall (thoracic wall) of a pig. Three pectoral muscles are:

1. Pectoralis major- the most superficial muscle in this region.

2. Pectoralis minor- the muscle that is below the pectoralis major

3. Serratus anterior- the muscle that is adjacent to the chest wall

spin [16.1K]

Answer:

It destroy both harmful and beneficial microbes.

Explanation:

If scientist added a chemical to destroy the arctic microbes, the beneficial as well as harmful microbes also eliminated from that area where chemical is applied. The removal of harmful microbes is a good thing but the removal of beneficial microbes brings instability in the environment. These beneficial microbes helps in the recycling of nutrients for the plants present there. So the negative effect of chemical is that it also effect the beneficial microbes which are necessary for the ecosystem.

You sprint as hard as you can until you physically can’t run anymore. Describe the contributions of as many systems as you can t
tamaranim1 [39]

When you are running at high intensity many body systems are being influenced by running and providing some responses in your body.

Running stimulates the cardio respiratory system, making your heart work harder by pumping a large amount of blood into your body, the blood flow starts to be fast and to compensate for this effort you will have to breathe more, taking more oxygen for your organs and tissues.

The muscular and bone systems are stimulated and trained providing greater resistance and strength for your muscles and lower bones.

During the run, the urinary system is also affected, because running is able to improve kidney function, allowing the expulsion of toxic substances from your body to be done more efficiently.

Finally, running stimulates the endocrine system by causing it to release hormones of well-being and relaxation that help you rest and feel good after running.

Marianna [84]

Answer:The image to this question is attached.

Answer is the ovary

Explanation: the process by which egg is produced is called oogenesis. It involves the mitotic division of the primodial germ cells to from a oogonia. The oogonia becomes enveloped by follicle cells . Oogonia grows to become the primary oocyte. Each primary oocyte is diploid. It then undergoes the first meiotic division to form the secondary oogonia and a smaller polar nody. all this process of development occurs in the ovary.

After it is released from the ovary, fertilization occurs and it undergoes the second meiotic division to from a polar body and an ovum.

The primary oocyte however remains in prophase of meiosis l throughout childhood.

A single gene produces two different proteins, utilizing different exons. What is the most likely explanation?
Helen [10]

Answer:   Differences in mRNA splicing.

Explanation:

The exon is the region of a gene that is not separated during the cutting and splicing process and thus remains in the mature messenger RNA. In genes encoding a protein, it is the exons which contain the information to produce the protein encoded in the gene. In these cases, each exon encodes a specific portion of the complete protein, so that the set of exons forms the coding region of the gene. In eukaryotes, the exons of a gene are separated by long regions of DNA (called introns) which do not code.

RNA splicing is a post-transcriptional process of maturing RNA from which certain sequential fragments are removed. This process is very common in eukaryotes, and can occur in any type of RNA, although it is more common in mRNA. It consists of removing the introns from the primary transcript and then binding the exons. Particularly, <u>alternative RNA splicing takes place when one gene can produce different proteins as a result of what segments are considered as introns and exons</u>. When different segments are considered exons, the result is a great diversity of mature transcripts which produce different proteins.

<u>So, gene splicing is a post-transcriptional modification in which a gene can code for many proteins, which makes it an important source of protein diversity.</u>

Earth's axis of rotation is almost parallel to the plane of its orbit. Please select the best answer from the choices provided T
Arada [10]

Answer:

This is a false statement. So it is F

Explanation: The axis of the earth is an imaginary line. It makes an angle 66 1/2 degree with its orbital plane. So the earth is tilting with orbital plane, not in parallel position. The plane formed by the orbit is known as the orbital plane. Due to this tilting position the poles have 6 months day and 6 months night.
