Are scans done with MRI, CAT scan, PET scan, X-ray, or ultrasound machines?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

MRI: Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) uses the body's natural magnetic properties to produce detailed images from any part of the body.

CAT/CT scan: is an upgraded version of an X-ray, which it uses multiple x-rays taken from different angles all around a body. Then uses a computer to create complex cross-sectional images of parts of a body

PET scan: uses radioactive tracers dyes which put into a body(by being swallowed, injecting, etc.). Which is tracked by the PET scanner, creating an image. PET helps to visualize the biochemical changes taking place in the body, such as the metabolism (the process by which cells change food into energy after food is digested and absorbed into the blood) of the heart muscle.

X-ray: when a negatively charged electrode is heated by electricity and electrons are released. Which produces energy that is directed toward an anode at high velocity. Producing an X-ray when the energy collides with the atoms in the metal plate.

Ultrasound: using a small transducer it both transmits sound waves into the body and records the waves that echo back.

Answer 2

Answer:

I cannot figure out what it is you would like to know. Please think about how your question is worded, and make it clear. In usual medical terminology, static x-rays produce images but are not considered scans, whereas all the others are ‘scans’. CT uses X-rays to make a ‘scanned’ image of internal soft tissues that do not show well on simple static X-ray imaging. MRI uses magnetism and radio ‘waves’, ultrasound uses a version of echolocation, PET uses a radioactive ‘tracer’ compound.

Use Darwin's theory of Natural Selection to explain the process by which the four-legged land animal, A, may have evolved, over about 20 million years, from the fish-like creature, C, in the swampy conditions of the time.

Answers

Answer:

Due to environmental conditions.

Explanation:

With the passage of time, environmental conditions change which causes the evolution of of four legged land animals from fish like creature. This change occurs due to change in environment. In water, there is no need for legs because fish moves with the help of fins and tail but the organisms that lives on land has legs in order to move from one place to another so we can say that change in the physical structure of organism occurs due to environment.

protons.
C. Covalent bonds are formed when atoms share one or more
protons.
D. Covalent bonds are formed when atoms transfer one or more
electrons.

Answers

Answer:

A

Explanation:

A covalent bond consists of the mutual sharing of one or more pairs of electrons between two atoms. These electrons are simultaneously attracted by the two atomic nuclei. A covalent bond forms when the difference between the electronegativities of two atoms is too small for an electron transfer to occur to form ions.

Answer: The answer is A Covalent bonds are formed when atoms share one or more electrons
