What type of association would you expect between a person's age and hair length?

1 answer:

3 0

The length of their hair reduces. This is because the length of hair is dependent on the growth phase (anagen phase) of the hair follicles. When one is young, the cells of the papilla divide more rapidly and hence cause the length of the hair to be long before reaching transitional phase (catagen phase) and then shed off in the telogen phase. The older one gets, the papilla cells do not divide as rapidly and the length of the hair shortens with age.

coldgirl [10]

Answer:

Blood

Connective tissue consists of extracellular matrix and cells. The main function of connective tissue is to bind the other tissues together, provide them support and strength. Blood is one of the liquid connective tissue that does not perform such functions. The presence of liquid extracellular matrix (plasma) and formed elements (blood cells) makes it a connective tissue. It serves in the transport of nutrients, gases, wastes, hormones, etc. It also takes part in immune responses but does not strength or support other body tissues.
