Pre-Lab Questions Select the correct answer for each of the following questions: 1. The clavicle and the scapula form the
- pectoral girdle.
- pelvic girdle.
- upper limb.
- axial skeleton.
Introduction:
Pectoral girdle also called the shoulder girdle connects our arms and is found in the appendicular skeleton. The upper limb is joined with the axial skeleton by the pectoral girdle. It is form of two bones- clavicle and scapula. Its main function is to provide full motion and support to our shoulders.
Answer to Problem 1PL
Correct answer:
The correct answer is option (a) pectoral gridle.
Explanation of Solution
Explanation/justification for the correct answer:
Option (a) pectoral gridle. Scapula is also known as the wing bone or the shoulder blade. The flat bone is found in the thoracic cavity and is the point of attachment for intrinsic, extrinsic and rotating muscles. The upper arm bone is connected to the collar bone by the scapula.
Clavicle, the collar bone acts as a strut between shoulder blade and the sternum. Scapula connects the upper arm bone with the collar bone. Hence, it is the correct answer.
Explanation for incorrect answer:
Option (b) pelvic gridle- Pelvic gridle is composed of fused bones- the ischium, Ilium and pubis. Hence, it is an incorrect answer.
Option (c) upper limb- There are 30 bones in the upper limb. It is divided into three regions - the arm, forearm and wrist joints. Hence, it is an incorrect answer.
Option (d) axial skeleton- It is a part of the main skeleton and consist of the head and trunk bones of the vertebrate. Hence, it is an incorrect answer.
The correct option is (a) as the pectoral gridle is composed of scapula and clavicle.

- We will be starting a group project next week where you and your group will research and ultimately present on a current research article related to the biology of a pathogen that infects humans. The article could be about the pathogen itself, the disease process related to the pathogen, the immune response to the pathogen, vaccines or treatments that affect the pathogen, or other biology-related study about the pathogen. I recommend that you choose a pathogen that is currently interesting to researchers, so that you will be able to find plenty of articles about it. Avoid choosing a historical disease that no longer circulates.

- One of the ways for a cell to generate ATP is through the oxidative phosphorylation. In oxidative phosphorylation 3 ATP are produced from every one NADH molecule. In respiration, every glucose molecule produces 10 NADH molecules. If a cell is growing on 5 glucose molecules, how much ATP can be produced using oxidative phosphorylation/aerobic respiration?arrow_forwardIf a cell is growing on 5 glucose molecules, how much ATP can be produced using oxidative phosphorylation/aerobic respiration?arrow_forwardHow do i know which way the arrows go?arrow_forward
