Answer:

Logistic growth occurs when population growth slows or stops after a period of exponential growth. In logistic growth, sigmoid growth curve(S-shaped) is produced.

At this period, the net increases and a decrease in the number of individuals is zero because the population reached its carrying capacity, as a result, the growth becomes constant. Carrying capacity is the maximum number of individuals of a population an ecosystem can support.

As the population reaches its carrying capacity after exponential growth the growth curve becomes sigmoid which shows the environmental resistance is slowing down the growth rate.

Mechanical stress applied to bone __________ osteoblast activity in bone tissue, and the removal of mechanical stress __________

iren2701 [21]

Mechanical stress applied to bone increases osteoblast activity in bone tissue, and the removal of mechanical stress decreases osteoblast activity.

Explanation:

Osteoblasts are cells , that are produced in the bone marrow and are responsible for formation of bones and bone matrix.

Whenever a mechanical stress is applied on the bones , a series of reactions are triggered. As a result the activities of osteoblast increases to synthesize more and more bone matrix to provide strength.

Again on the other hand a decrease in mechanical causes a decrease in the activities of the osteoblasts.
