Pandas possess five digits on the hand but they are oriented such that they perform flexion parallel to one another, similar to how a person's four non-thumb fingers flex and extend in parallel. In the case of the panda, the thumb also flexes parallel to the other four fingers (as opposed to people, in which case the thumb is rotated 90 degrees relative to the other four fingers). This prevents the panda from being able to grasp objects. Instead, the sesamoid bone of the radius (the bone in the forearm closer to the thumb) forms a small shelf in the same orientation and same approximate location as a person's extended thumb. This sesamoid bone is not a true digit in that it has no significant anatomical movement but it still allows the panda to rest the head of a piece of bamboo on the sesamoid bone and flex its five fingers (thumb included) in order to grasp the piece of bamboo.

Why is important to know modified plant structure?
Understanding modified plant structures is important for various reasons, such as enhancing crop productivity through genetic engineering, studying plant adaptation to different environments, and exploring new ways to utilize plants for food, medicine, and other applications. Modified plant structures can also provide insights into the evolution of plants and their interactions with the environment.
What are the three main ways through which an mRNA strand is modified between transcription and translation?
The three main ways mRNA strand is modified are 5' capping, 3' polyadenylation, and RNA splicing. 5' capping involves adding a modified nucleotide at the 5' end to protect the mRNA from degradation. 3' polyadenylation involves adding a string of adenine nucleotides at the 3' end to stabilize the mRNA and regulate its translation. RNA splicing is the removal of non-coding regions (introns) and joining of coding regions (exons) to form a mature mRNA molecule.
What are two groups that are adapted to anaerobic conditions and contain modified mitochondria that lack DNA?
Two groups of organisms that are adapted to anaerobic conditions and have modified mitochondria lacking DNA are diplomonads and parabasalids. These organisms have evolved alternative ways of generating energy in the absence of oxygen, such as through fermentation or other metabolic pathways.
3 ways composition of magma can be modified?
The composition of magma can be modified by the addition of new material, such as when magma assimilates surrounding rock as it rises to the surface. Magma composition can also be altered through fractional crystallization, where minerals crystallize and separate from the remaining melt. Mixing of different magma batches can further modify composition through hybridization.
A scientific explanation for a set of observations that can be tested in ways that support or reject it?
A scientific hypothesis is a proposed explanation for a set of observations that can be tested through experiments or data collection. If the collected data supports the hypothesis, it is considered valid; if not, the hypothesis is rejected or modified. This process helps scientists understand natural phenomena and develop theories that accurately represent the world.

Why are pandas becoming extinct in China?
There are many ways that pandas get killed. People are cutting forest and they can't live with no home. They are also killing pandas for their fur. So that is why only a few pandas in China are left.
