Answer:  A. nastic response

The thigmonasty is a kind of response shown by a plant towards touch and vibration stimuli. It is generally produce in response to changes in plants that occur due to turgor pressure within a cell. The plants generally show this kind of response so as to decrease their surface area so that they can be protected by the grazing herbivores.

The following events are part of endochondral ossification. In which order do they occur?
devlian [24]

The order is calcification of matrix  >> cells differentiate into osteoblasts >> formation of the primary ossification >>  osteoclasts break down the spongy bone >> formation of the secondary ossification (5,3,1,2,4). It is a fundamental process.

<h3>What are osteoblasts?</h3>

Osteoblasts are cells of the bones, which act to generate bone matrix and modulate the process of mineralization of the skeleton.

Endochondral ossification refers to the mechanism through which the cartilaginous bones generate longitudinal growth.

This mechanism (endochondral ossification) is fundamental during fetal/embryo development.

There is a disorder in which there is the absence of a part in the microtubule. Dynein arms absent in microtubules. Because the respiratory system and sperm both contain cilia that's why these two systems have a connection and not work properly.
