Nutrients are brought to spongy bone by diffusion through canaliculi

  • Diffusion through the canaliculi

<h3>How is bone tissue nourished?</h3>

Nutrition is provided by the so-called Nourishing Foramina, which are openings in the bone through which blood vessels, veins and arteries pass. Also with regard to nutrition, Volkmann's canals provide the main entry route for vessels to cross compact bone.

With this information, we can conclude that Volkmann canals also contain nutritional vessels arising from the periosteal and endosteal bone surface.

Which of the following has the fewest taste receptors?
kolbaska11 [484]

Answer:

filiform papillae

Explanation:

The filiform papillae, also called conical papillae, are sensory receptors distributed on two thirds of the lingual dorsum. They are the most abundant papillae on the surface of the tongue and are not associated with taste reception because they have the smallest number of taste receptors.

These papillae are arranged fairly evenly in rows parallel to the central groove of the tongue, especially in the center and back. These papillae are made up of connective tissue and an epithelium that expresses keratin, a protein present in people's skin, hair and nails.

That question, this incomplete. The full question is:

3. Three redwood trees are kept at different humidity levels inside a greenhouse for 12 weeks. One tree is left outside in normal conditions. The heights of the trees are measured once a week. What are the dependent variables, independent and the controlled variable of this experiment?

Answer:

  • Independent variable: different humidity levels
  • Dependent variable: the heights of the trees
  • controlled variable: the types of trees

Explanation:

An independent variable is one that exerts an influence within the experiment and can be measured, acting on other elements to promote the observation of a result. As the experiment seeks to observe the influence of humidity on the height of the tree, we can say that humidity is the independent variable.

Dependent variable is that which is influenced by the independent variable to generate a result that can be observed, can also be measured. As the experiment wishes to analyze how the height of the trees was affected by the level of humidity, we can say that the height of the trees is the dependent variable.

Controlled variable is that which is present in the experiment in a constant and equal way, cannot be measured. This variable is the type of trees.

Coin tosses can demonstrate the effects of genetic drift. Imagine that heads and tails are two alleles in a population. Consider
nydimaria [60]

Answer:

Smaller populations have a greater chance of having one allele expressed disproportionately.

Explanation:

Genetic drift corresponds to a drastic casual alteration of the natural order, reaching the genotypic concentration of one or several species, not preliminarily involving natural selection factors, but caused by sudden events.  Such phenomenon is characterized by the occurrence of ecological catastrophes, for example: earthquakes, tsunamis, tornadoes, floods, burnings, avalanches and other processes, affecting a large population contingent. Thus limiting the genetic content of a particular group, restricted to the prevailing individuals.

In this situation, with low variability, differentiated individuals will experience a more significant selection pressure in relation to the ascending lineage, which minimized the achievements of selection due to the high number of living individuals. In this scenario, smaller populations will have a greater chance of having a disproportionately expressed allele as the number of members is reduced. We can also see this effect if by using a coin we imagine that heads and tails are two alleles in a population and each coin toss represents one member of that population.
