Answer: a. cervical enlargement.

Explanation:

Cervical enlargement corresponds to the enlargement of the spinal cord. The spinal cord is the origin of the spinal nerves that contribute to an important task of supplying blood to the upper limbs.  

The cervical enlargement results in an increase in the volume of the motor cells in the ventral part inside the grey matter. The motor neurons which are sited posteriorly supply to the upper limbs. Those which supply to the distal muscles are situated further posteriorly.

Describe the steps that bone goes through as it heals from a break.
lyudmila [28]

Answer:

Explained

Explanation:

Bone healing has three main processes and these stages are overlapping to each other. These processes are inflammation,bone production and bone remodeling.

Inflammation occurs immediately after the fracture and last several days. It enables clotting of blood. It provides initial structure stability and framework for new bone formation.  

Bone production occurs when the clotted blood formed by inflammation is replaced with fibrous tissues and cartilage as soft callous.

Bone remodeling is the final stage of the bone healing and it goes on for several months. Bone continues to form and compact. Bones returns to its original shape and the blood circulation in that area improves.

Evgen [1.6K]

Answer:

Abiotic factor.

Explanation:

Soil type is an abiotic factor for an earthworm. The soil type helps an earthworm to collect food and increase the population.

Sunlight, soil, water, and rocks are those abiotic factors that contribute to earthworms to obtain their food and to survive under the soil or upper side of the soil.

Like earthworms, many other organisms depend on the abiotic factors for their livelihood.
