O the movement of carbon dioxide from high concentrations in the cell to low concentrations in the blood.
o the movement of glucose into the cell down its concentration gradient,
o the movement of sodium atoms from low concentration in the cell to higher concentrations outside the cell.
Answer:
Endosteum plays an important role in bone repair, bone remodelling and appositional bone growth.
Explanation:
Endosteum consists of a soft and thin connective tissue that lines the cavity of femur and humerus. Some of the major functions of endosteum are as follows:
Bone remodelling: Endosteum can stimulate the bone resorption that leads to the formation of new bone from the outside.
Bone repair: Hematoma, at the time of bone injury causes the division of endosteal cells and helps in bone repair.
Appositional bone growth: Endosteum that line the osteoblast cell can secrete bone matrix and increases the bone diameter.
Alternative RNA splicing determines which proteins are produced from each gene.
Answer:
Yes, it is.
Explanation:
Penguins are a species of seabird that lives in the southern hemisphere, in areas close to Antarctica, characterized by its cold and wide expanses of sea without land. In this context, penguins are capable of living in these temperatures and feeding on fish and other marine elements. In addition, they are unable to fly, but not so to move through the sea using their wings for it.
