Answer:

The type of bone that contains no osteons, but consists of trabaculae composed of parallel lamellae is <u>spongy</u> bone.

Explanation:

Spongy bone is a type of bone tissue that constitutes the internal part of the bones, found especially in the epiphysis of long bones, vertebrae, iliac. The bone matrix is organized in the form of a bone trabaculae network, leaving spaces that are occupied by the bone marrow. Also called trabecular bone does not contain osteons (the fundamental functional unit of compact bone tissue, a cylindrical structure with a central channel surrounded by bone matrix) and it provides adequate mechanical support, it is also the most metabolically active.

Transcription in bacteria differs from transcription in a eukaryotic cell because __________________________. (a) RNA polymerase
Serggg [28]

The correct answer is: (a) RNA polymerase (along with its sigma subunit) can initiate transcription on its own.

More differences between prokaryotic and eukaryotic transcription:

• In prokaryotes transcription occurs in the cytoplasm (unlike in eukaryotes in nucleus) and it is simultaneous with translation,

• In prokaryotes there is only one type of RNA polymerase (in eukaryotes there are three types of them).

• There is no sigma subunit in eukaryotes, the initiation of transcription begins thanks to initiation factors.

• Promoter region in prokaryotes contains pribnow box, while in eukaryotes it contains TATA and CAT box.

Why do plant cells need a cell wall but animal cells do not
morpeh [17]
Cell walls are rigid which gives plants their shape. Animals have only cell membranes which allows animals to be flexible as animals are moving organisms. Plants, on the other hand, are sturdy and upright and are sessile organisms. Cell walls allow plants to grow upright as high as their maximum height and to be sturdy enough to survive harsh environments.
