VMariaS [17]

So when some members of ancestral species get new habitat which is different in ways like in food availability, food type, environment, etc then this isolated population adapts to the new environment by doing changes in their gene which results and the development of new species. So the correct answer is C.

aksik [14]

Answer:

Explanation:

Osteoblast are the cells that build bones by secreting the extracellular matrix for bone tissue. These cells secrete components such as collagen fibres and inorganic electrolytes that together make the matrix of bone tissue. Absence or inactivity of these cells could prevent the formation of new bone after fracture. Hence, doctors should target osteoblasts.
