Answer:

C. right side of the head and neck and right upper arm

Explanation:

The arch of aorta is a continuation of ascending aorta and terminates at the intervertebral disc of fourth and fifth thoracic vertebrae. The superior part of the arch of aorta branches off into three major arteries. The first branch of arch of aorta is the largest branch and is known as the brachiocephalic trunk.

The brachiocephalic trunk divides and forms the subclavian artery and right common carotid artery. Right common carotid artery supplied blood to the right side of the head and neck while the right subclavian artery delivers blood to the right upper limb.

Hence, any blood clot in the first branch of arch of aorta, that is the brachiocephalic trunk would affect the blood supply to the right side of the head and neck and right upper arm.

Define groundwater, and list some anthropogenic (human) sources of groundwater pollution. Why do many scientists consider ground
joja [24]

Explanation:

Groundwater is the freshwater present below the earth's surface. It originates from the rain, ice, melting snow.

Some anthropogenic sources of groundwater pollution are

  • Aluminum.
  • Sulfur.
  • Arsenic.
  • Nitrates.
  • Fluoride.

Groundwater pollution has more problems than surface water pollution because groundwater is mostly hidden and it is very difficult to view, manage and monitor.

Groundwater holds its contamination and pollutants that cause pollution whereas surface water rinses their contamination and pollutants.

MAXImum [283]
<span>The specific heat of the metal is 0.5 cal/ (0C.g). This means the energy needed is 0.5 cal to raise the heat of 1 gram of metal by 1 degree C. Therefore, the energy needed to raise 100 g of the metal by 20 degrees C is:
0.5 * 20 * 100 = 1000 cal.

In humans, there are four blood types: A, B, AB and O. Each parent can give their offspring one of three blood type alleles, IA
Delvig [45]

Answer: One parent is IAi and the other parent is IBi

Explanation: As this trait is codominant, the child can inherited IA, IB or i.

Tina has type O, which means she is ii and her sister is AB, so her genotype is IAIB. Now, to have a child with a recessive trait both parents has to carry at least one allele for the recessive, i. Rosa is type AB which means she had to have inherited one allele IA from one of her parents and the other IB from the other parent. Thus, one parent is IAi and the other is IBi.
