Answer:

Collagen fibers

Explanation:

Cartilage is the connective tissue found in the mammalian group of animals and is composed of the collagen fibre made by the chondrocytes which occur at the scattered sites.

The fibrocartilage is one of the types of cartilage present in the intervertebral disks and helps provide the tensile strength and help absorb the shock in the spine.

The extracellular matrix of fibrocartilage is enriched with the collagen fibres which provides toughness and great tensile strength to the cartilage.

Thus, Collagen fibres are the correct answer.

What does the Nucleus, cell membrane, and cytoplasm do?
Serga [27]

Answer:

The cell membrane holds the cell's internal contents from its environment.

The cell membrane is comprised of two layers of fat.

The cytoplasm is a liquid in which the various organelles of the cell are suspended.

The cytoplasm keeps organelles in place. It also allows different materials to flow from one organelle to another.

The nucleus of a cell contains genetic material. DNA, RNA and mitochondria replicate in the nucleus. The nucleus also produces and replicates proteins, and sends the proteins to other parts of the cell.

The correct answer is E-processing of exons in mRNA that results in a single gene coding for multiple proteins.

Explanation

Splicing is the process where introns are cut out of the mRNA so only the coding parts for proteins. In this way, genes can code for many proteins, depending on how the amino-acids are arranged.
