The earth's atmosphere consists mainly of nitrogen and oxygen with smaller proportions of other gases such as carbon dioxide. The amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere is maintained through a balance between processes such as photosynthesis, respiration and combustion. However this balance is being affected by human activities which are polluting the atmosphere.
The proportion of these gases in the atmosphere is as follows: nitrogen is the most abundant at 78%, oxygen is next at 21%, while others include carbon dioxide at 0.037% and argon at 0.9 % .
Answer:
Spongy bone is well adapted to accept stress in many directions, which makes it good for shock absorption
Explanation:
Spongy bone tissue is less compact and always present towards the interior of the bone and is covered by compact bone. Spongy bone tissue has lamellae that are arranged in an irregular pattern. The thin irregular columns of lamellae are called trabeculae.
The trabeculae of spongy bone tissues are precisely arranged along the line of stress. This feature of spongy bones allows them to resist the stress applied from many directions and to transfer the force making them a good shock absorber. The final arrangement of trabeculae is achieved only after the person learns the locomotory movements completely.
Prokaryotes do not contain membrane, and eukaryotes do contain membrane.
