Which component of bone is responsible for its strength?

Biology
1 answer:
Lorico [155]3 years ago

<span>The answer is osteoid. It begins with unmineralized collagen fibers and ground substance. Later it becomes a calcified matrix. The matrix is mainly made of collagen and calcium ions.   When not well mineralized, osteoblasts proliferates hence the bone will not have the desired strength. This results to deformation of bone causing rickets</span>

melomori [17]
The substance that helps keep the integrity of the bacterial cell wall intact is known as the peptidoglycan. Others also refer to is it as murein or mucopeptide. The bacterial cell wall is necessary for survival because of the high internal pressure present inside of bacteria. Under normal conditions, if the cell wall is removed the bacterial cell will burst.

The peptidoglycan is a layer that can be used to distinguish gram positive bacteria from gram negative ones. G(+) bacteria have a thick layer of this while G(-) have a thinner ones.
