What type of connective tissue prevents muscles from pulling away from the bones during contraction?
Dense connective tissue - it makes up the tendons.
What is the layer of glycoproteins that prevents leakage of materials from connective tissues called?
The layer of glycoproteins that prevents leakage of materials from connective tissues is called the basement membrane. It acts as a selective filter, regulating the passage of substances between the connective tissue and the surrounding structures.
What is the leaf like structure which prevents the entry of food into the respiratory passages?
The epiglottis is the structure that prevents the entry of food into the respiratory system. It is made of connective tissue.
Three functional roles of bacterial capsules?
The capsule allows bacteria to spread diseases easily by preventing phagocytosis. It also prevents the dessication. It prevents bacterial viruses to get in the cell and also prevents hydrophobic toxins from toxicating the cell.
Is omeprazole capsules an antibiotic?
Antacid are the drugs which neutralizes the acid already formed in the stomach.where as omeprazole is a drug which prevents the formation of acid by H ION PRODUCTION IN THE STOMACH.
What type of tissue forms the bursa?
Fibrous connective tissue forms on the bursa. This type of tissue prevents friction within the joints. The plural of bursa is bursas or bursae.
What layer of the heart is formed by a single sheet of squamous epithelial cells covering connective tissue?
The pericardium is the layer of the heart formed by a single sheet of squamous epithelial cells covering connective tissue. It acts as a protective membrane around the heart and prevents friction as the heart beats.
What can one buy from the Copper IUD store?
The Copper IUD is not a store but a contraceptive product. It is an Inter Uterine Device that is inserted in the uterus and prevents the mobility of sperm by the release of ions.

What type of mutation causes cystic fibrosis?
The most common mutation (seen in approx. 70% of cystic fibrosis patients) that causes the disease is known as Delta F508. It affects the functions of a gene found in chromosome 7 called Cystic Fibrosis Transmembrane Regulator (CFTR) by displacing it from its normal location on the chromosome. This prevents it from making a protein (which has the same name as the gene) responsible for ion channels used by Cl ions as well as Na ions. The former facilitates osmosis (diffusion of water). It also is known as an ATP-binding cassette transporter protein, which are able to span the biological membrane to transport a variety of materials, such as products of metabolism.
