This is stratified keratinized squamous epithelium.

<h3>What are the characteristics of stratified keratinized squamous epithelium?</h3>
  • A kind of stratified squamous epithelium known as keratinized stratified squamous epithelium has cells that have multiple layers of thick keratin in the apical portion of the cells.
  • Skin and underlying tissues can benefit from the stiff, fibrous intracellular protein keratin's ability to protect them from heat, bacteria, and chemicals.
  • In the process of keratinization, the cells build up keratin as they ascend, transforming into thin, metabolically inert pockets of keratin devoid of nuclei.
  • As cells distance themselves from the nutritive blood supply and the organelles eventually perish, the relative amount of keratin in the cells rises.
  • The cells on the top layer lose all function as a result of keratinization and are now primarily involved in protecting against mechanical stress and dehydration.

What is bone remodeling and how is it used to determine age?
Blababa [14]
Bone remodeling is a process in which bone tissue is replaced by newer bone tissue. It can be used to determine age because we take the bone tissue that was removed from the skeleton and based on its structure we can determine at what age was it removed from the skeleton.

Explain the evolutionary advantage of having multiple operons for various sugars
Nadya [2.5K]
Operons are gene regulatory mechanisms that involve promoting and repressing genes that are involved in the metabolism of organic substances (i.e. sugars). Living organisms have the innate ability to metabolize glucose as the main source of energy. Although, in the absence of glucose, the organism must "learn" to use sugars other than glucose (such as lactose) in order to survive. 

For instance, in the <em>lac </em>operon:
In the absence of glucose, various regulatory proteins promote the transcription of the gene related to the metabolism of lactose. This will ultimately lead to the production of the enzyme beta lactosidase which will enable the organism to use lactose as energy in the absence of glucose. This will therefore increase the chances of the organism for survival and will be naturally selected for evolution.
