Concept explainers
(a)
To determine:
The nerve that is damaged when a woman is unable to adduct the thigh.
Introduction:
The thigh is the part of the leg in the human body. It lies between the hip and the knee. Adduction means drawing a limb towards the body.
(b)
To determine:
The nerve that is damaged when a woman is unable to extend the knee.
Introduction:
The knee is considered as one of the biggest and most complicated joints in the body. It combines the thigh bone to the shin bone.
(c)
To determine:
The nerve that is damaged when a woman is unable to flex the knee.
Introduction:
The knee joint is made up of the smaller bones that pass beside the tibia and the kneecap. It is one of the biggest and most complicated joints in the body.
(d)
To determine:
The nerve that is damaged when there is loss of sensation from the skin of the anterior thigh of a woman.
Introduction:
The thigh is the region that lies between the pelvis and the knee in human anatomy. It belongs to the lower limb. The single bone present in the thigh is known as the femur.
(e)
To determine:
The nerve that is damaged when there is loss of sensation from the skin of the medial thigh of a woman.
Introduction:
The thigh belongs to the lower limb. It is the region that lies between the pelvis and the knee in human anatomy. The thigh is divided into three compartments separated by fascia.

- Molecular Biology Question You are working to characterize a novel protein in mice. Analysis shows that high levels of the primary transcript that codes for this protein are found in tissue from the brain, muscle, liver, and pancreas. However, an antibody that recognizes the C-terminal portion of the protein indicates that the protein is present in brain, muscle, and liver, but not in the pancreas. What is the most likely explanation for this result?arrow_forwardMolecular Biology Explain/discuss how “slow stop” and “quick/fast stop” mutants wereused to identify different protein involved in DNA replication in E. coli.arrow_forwardMolecular Biology Question A gene that codes for a protein was removed from a eukaryotic cell and inserted into a prokaryotic cell. Although the gene was successfully transcribed and translated, it produced a different protein than it produced in the eukaryotic cell. What is the most likely explanation?arrow_forward
