Answer:
Is composed of trabeculae that are oriented along lines of stress. (Ans. D)
Explanation:
Spongy bones are also known as trabecular and cancellous bones. It is covered by compact bones and present in the long bones. They are known as spongy because they are highly vascular and porous tissues.
Osteoblast thin area creating the turbeculae space between the tissues. Spongy bones are also known for home of hematopoietic stem cells and bone marrow, which are helping to differentiate white blood cells, red blood cells, and platelets.
Some difference between spongy bone and compact bone are:
1) Spongy bones are light weight and compact bones are heavy.
2) Spongy bones are composed of trabeculae and compact bones are composed of osteons.
3) Spongy bones are known as cancellous and compact bones are known as cortical bones.
I dont think so, photosynthesis requires light to carry out.
<u>Answer:</u>
- few nutrients
- high pressure
- low temperatures
<u>Explanation:</u>
1. Few nutrients: open-ocean zone is located way far from the land, which is the main source of the essential nutrients.
2. High pressure: pressure increases by 1 atmosphere for every 10 meters increase in depth.
3. Ample sunlight: a large fraction of the sunlight is reflected back to the atmosphere from the sea surface.
4. Varying salinity: below the thermocline, the water is isolated from the atmosphere so the salinity remains stable over the year.
5. Low temperatures: the temperature of open-ocean zone ranges from a low of -2°C to an average of 17°C.
Antiparallel means that the strands are parallel but moving or oriented in opposite directions.
