Answer:

DNA is made up of two nucleic acid strands joined by hydrogen bonding. DNA winds into a double helix, with hydrogen bonding between the bases of each strand like the rungs of a ladder. This structure enables DNA to coil so that the long molecule is compact and lots of information can be stored in a small space.

Hii!!

The purpose of mitosis is to create two new perfectly identical cells when either there is a need to replace old or damaged cells and to reproduce asexually by making new cells. Some organisms use mitosis to replace body parts. For example starfish replace lost arms by mitosis. Some organisms such as the hydra use mitosis to produce genetically identical offspring.

There are four stages of mitosis: prophase, metaphase, anaphase and telophase.

1) Prophase: chromatin into chromosomes, the nuclear envelope break down, chromosomes attach to spindle fibres by their centromeres

2) Metaphase: chromosomes line up along the metaphase plate (centre of the cell)

3) Anaphase: sister chromatids are pulled to opposite poles of the cell

4) Telophase: nuclear envelope reforms, chromosomes unfold into chromatin, cytokinesis can begin

● The order of the stages of mitosis can be remembered using the mnemonic PMAT.

Hope this helps!! if it has pls mark me as the brainliest Xd :D

Ugo [173]

Some bones develop within sheet like layers of connective tissue which are called intramembranous bones whereas the bones that are develop from a model of hyaline cartilage and are called endochondral bones.

<h3>Formation of intramembranous bones and endochondral bones</h3>

Endochondral ossification involves the replacement of hyaline cartilage with bony tissue which leads to the formation of endochondral bones whereas, intramembranous ossification refers to the replacement of sheet-like connective tissue membranes with bony tissue which results in the formation of intramembranous bones.
