Match the terms in column A with the descriptions in column B. Place the letter of your choice in the space provided.
Column A
- Gomphosis
- Suture
- Symphysis
- Synchondrosis
- Syndesmosis Column B1. Immovable joint between flat bones of the skull united by athin layer of dense connective tissue
2. Fibrocartilage fills the slightly movable joint
3. Temporary joint in which bones are united by bands of hyaline cartilage
4. Slightly movable joint in which bones are united by interosseous membrane
5. Joint formed by union of tooth root in bony socket

To match:
The term from column A to the correct description in column B.
Introduction:
The fibrous connective tissue joins the adjacent bones. These bones do not possess any space or cavity. The syndesmosis, suture, and gomphosis are the three fibrous joints. The suture joint is narrow and is present in the skull bone. The syndesmosis joint is wide and bones of this joint are connected by fibrous tissue. The gomphosis is the narrow joint between the jaw socket and the root of the tooth.
Answer to Problem 1.1A
The table below represents the correct match from the Column A to Column B.
Column A | Column B |
a. Gomphosis | 5. Joint formed by the union of the tooth root in the bony socket. |
b. Suture | 1. The immovable joint between flat bones of the skull united by a thin layer of dense connective tissue. |
c. Symphysis | 2. Fibrocartilage fills the slightly movable joint. |
d. Synchondrosis | 3. The temporary joint in which bones are united by bands of hyaline cartilage. |
e. Syndesmosis | 4. The slightly movable joint in which bones are united by the interosseous membrane. |
Explanation of Solution
- In mandible and maxillary bone, the teeth sockets are connected to teeth with the help of Gomphosis. Hence, this can be correctly matched with 5.
- The suture is present in the skull. It is an immovable fibrous joint present in between flat bones. A thin layer of connective tissue is connected with the joint. Hence, it can be correctly matched with 1.
- The fusion of fibrocartilage between the two bones is symphysis. The symphysis is a slightly movable joint that is filled with fibrocartilage. Hence, it can be correctly matched with 2.
- The junction between the first rib and sternum is formed by synchondrosis. The bands of hyaline cartilage connect the bones. Hence, it can be correctly matched with 3.
- The syndesmosis is a type of fibrous joint. It is the slightly movable joint in which bony surfaces are joined by an interosseous ligament. Hence, it can be correctly matched with 4.

- What is this?arrow_forwardMolecular Biology A-C components of the question are corresponding to attached image labeled 1. D component of the question is corresponding to attached image labeled 2. For a eukaryotic mRNA, the sequences is as follows where AUGrepresents the start codon, the yellow is the Kozak sequence and (XXX) just represents any codonfor an amino acid (no stop codons here). G-cap and polyA tail are not shown A. How long is the peptide produced?B. What is the function (a sentence) of the UAA highlighted in blue?C. If the sequence highlighted in blue were changed from UAA to UAG, how would that affecttranslation? D. (1) The sequence highlighted in yellow above is moved to a new position indicated below.

- Molecular Biology You discover a disease causing mutation (indicated by the arrow) that alters splicing of its mRNA. This mutation (a base substitution in the splicing sequence) eliminates a 3’ splice site resulting in the inclusion of the second intron (I2) in the final mRNA. We are going to pretend that this intron is short having only 15 nucleotides (most introns are much longer so this is just to make things simple) with the following sequence shown below in bold. The ( ) indicate the reading frames in the exons; the included intron 2 sequences are in bold. A. Would you expected this change to be harmful? ExplainB. If you were to do gene therapy to fix this problem, briefly explain what type of gene therapy youwould use to correct this. Please help. Thank youarrow_forwardMolecular Biology Question Please help.
