The shallow shoulder socket makes the joint unstable, which makes the bone easy to dislocate.
Determination of specific cells for certain functions changes resulting from induction the occurrence of mRNAs for the production of tissue-specific proteins changes in the size and shape of the cell cell.
The 7 (sometimes 8) characteristics of life are:
1. living things are composed of cells
2. living things have different levels of organization
3. living things metabolize (i.e. use energy)
4. living things respond to their environment
5. living things grow
6. living things reproduce
7. living things adapt to their environment
(some sources include) 8. living things have genetic material
Viruses do not metabolize, they do not grow, they do not adapt to their environment, and they cannot reproduce independently; viruses require host cells to reproduce and perform the other functions that give them the appearance of aliveness.
