Collagen refers to the prime structural protein in the extracellular space in the different connective tissues in the animal bodies. As the prime constituent of the connective tissue, it is the most abundant protein in mammals, forming about 25 to 35 percent of the whole-body protein component.

Collagen has an application in the cosmetic procedures to hide and fill wrinkles as it forms a series of fibers within the skin, which functions like framework. This maintains the elasticity and moisture of the skin like the younger skin.

Heterozygous is another word for what?
tatyana61 [14]

Answer:

Heterojunction or having two identical alleles of the same gene.

Explanation:

A heterojunction is an interface that occurs between two layers or regions of dissimilar semiconductors. These semiconducting materials have unequal band gaps as opposed to a homojunction. It is often advantageous to engineer the electronic energy bands in many solid-state device applications, including semiconductor lasers, solar cells and transistors. The combination of multiple heterojunctions together in a device is called a heterostructure, although the two terms are commonly used interchangeably. The requirement that each material be a semiconductor with unequal band gaps is somewhat loose, especially on small length scales, where electronic properties depend on spatial properties. A more modern definition of heterojunction is the interface between any two solid-state materials, including crystalline and amorphous structures of metallic, insulating, fast ion conductor and semiconducting materials.
