Answer:

canaliculi

Explanation:

According to my research on studies by various medical professionals, I can say that based on the information provided within the question the term being mentioned is called the canaliculi. This is a small channel that link together the lacunae and whose main function is routing nutrients to osteocytes and expelling waste products.

I hope this answered your question. If you have any more questions feel free to ask away at Brainly.

List and explain the 3 paths natural selection can take.
evablogger [386]

Answer:

1. Stabilizing Selection  

2. Directional Selection  

3. Disruptive Selection  

Explanation:

Stabilizing Selection  

This type of natural selection occurs when there are selective pressures working against two extremes of a trait and therefore the intermediate or “middle” trait is selected for. If we look at a distribution of traits in the population, it is noticeable that a standard distribution is followed:

Example:  For a plant, the plants that are very tall are exposed to more wind and are at risk of being blown over. The plants that are very short fail to get enough sunlight to prosper. Therefore, the plants that are a middle height between the two get both enough sunlight and protection from the wind.

Directional Selection  

This type of natural selection occurs when selective pressures are working in favour of one extreme of a trait. Therefore when looking at a distribution of traits in a population, a graph tends to lean more to one side:

Example: Giraffes with the longest necks are able to reach more leaves to each. Selective pressures will work in the advantage of the longer neck giraffes and therefore the distribution of the trait within the population will shift towards the longer neck trait.

Disruptive Selection  

This type of natural selection occurs when selective pressures are working in favour of the two extremes and against the intermediate trait. This type of selection is not as common. When looking at a trait distribution, there are two higher peaks on both ends with a minimum in the middle as such:

Example: An area that has black, white and grey bunnies contains both black and white rocks. Both the traits for white and black will be favored by natural selection since they both prove useful for camouflage. The intermediate trait of grey does not prove as useful and therefore selective pressures act against the trait.

In the u.s., about what percentage of all food expenditures is now accounted for by meals eaten out?
quester [9]
<span>Eating away from home is playing an increasing large role in the diet and the household budgets of American families. Back in 1970 approximately 26 percent of all food spending was on food away from home; by 2012, that amount had risen to 43 percent. The increase can be attributed to a greater percentage of women employed outside the home, more two-earner households with the resulting higher incomes, as well as more affordable and convenient fast food outlets. The downfall of this statistic is the contribution all that fast food makes to higher levels of obesity and lower dietary nutritional quality.</span>
