Which characteristic of lymphatic capillaries is correct?

1 answer:

5 0

The correct answer is "they originate as pockets, rather than forming continuous tubes".
Lymphatic capillaries are very small vessels located between cells. Their function is to absorb and process extracellular fluid. They have very thin walls and larger diameter than blood capillaries. Another important characteristic is that they have closed ends, permitting the extracellular fluid to flow in but not out.

Answer:

Heterochromatin consists of genetically inactive satellite sequences, and many of these are repressed to various extents. Moreover, because this is a tightly packed form of DNA or condensed DNA, it is inaccesible to polymerases and thus not transcribed.
