Answer:
True
Explanation:
Elastic fibers are composed of elastin, myofibrils and fibrillin. They are distributed <u>separately</u>, and therefore do not form bundles(they actually form a kind of mesh), like collagen fibers.
Elastic fibers are usually thin and long and can stretch up to 1.5x of their total length.
These fibers confer elasticity to the connective tissue. The mesh formed of elastic fibers easily yields to minimal tensions, returning to its original shape as soon as the deforming forces cease.
An example of the action of elastic fibers is when we pull the skin from our hands and release it, the elastic fibers are responsible for quickly returning the skin to its original shape.
Heterozygous- a certain gene that can carry two different alleles
Homozygous- a certain gene that carries two copies of the same alleles
Answer:
A. What causes some people to be color-blind?
Explanation:
This is something that could be tested with different variables including DNA, or past family medical history.
They can use those recently discovered genes and insert them in another species (fruits and vegetables) using genetic ingeniery technics so they can speed up the cell division on them, and accordingly increase the production.
Tendons :may also attach muscles to structures such as the eyeball. A tendon serves to move the bone or structure. A ligament: is a fibrous connective tissue which attaches bone to bone, and usually serves to hold structures together and keep them stable.
