What problems still exist in using natural regeneration?
qwelly [4]
Natural regeneration of forests and woodlands is the process by which new trees grow from seeds that have fallen and germinate where they have fallen.  The biggest problem with natural regeneration is that is unpredictable.  As a result, it cannot be used for commercial farming. For most of the last two or three hundred years, forests and woodlands have restocked by using transplants grown in nurseries. The young trees are planted in equidistant rows. This allows each tree the best possible change of optimal growth.

SashulF [63]

Answer:

Patches of fibrocartilage formed in the healing of a fracture are called <u>soft callus</u>, whereas the bony collar formed around the fracture is called <u>hard callus</u>.

Explanation:

In the fibrocartilage or soft bone callus phase, the necrotic bone is removed by osteoclastia and dead soft tissues are being removed by macrophages. The fibroblasts are activated and a granulation tissue is generated that supposes the appearance of new vessels and, with them, the arrival of more connective tissue cells. A tissue called fibrous callus or fibrocartilage begins to form, composed of a poorly structured amalgam of fibrous tissue, cartilage, and amorphous bone.In hard callus, bone and later cartilage are deposited in the growing historical mass. The two collars of callus,  fixed to the bone at some distance from the fracture, they grow upwards and towards each other, forming an arc  on focus.
