pychu [463]

Answer:

<h3>Allows the growth of long bones</h3>

Hyaline cartilage

Hyaline cartilage allows growth of long bones by endochondral ossification, which involves <u>replacement of the initial hyaline cartilage models to bony tissue</u>. This <em>model</em> is <em><u>glass-like</u></em> and formed from the <u>combination of chondroitin sulfate and type II collagen</u>. Aside from bone growth, it's also seen in joints, anterior ends of ribs, upper respiratory tract like larynx, trachea, and bronchi.

<h3>Intervertebral disks, pubic symphysis</h3>

Fibrocartilage

Fibrocartilage is composed of<u> Type 1 and 2 collagen</u>, which contributes to the toughness of this tissue. It is present in these sites due to the dynamic nature of these body parts. This cartilage is able to w<u>ithstand a certain amount of shear and compressive forces</u>. Along with the hyaline cartilage, it also <u>promotes bone formation.</u>

<h3>External ear, epiglottis, and auditory tubes </h3>

Elastic cartilage

Elastic cartilage, or yellow cartilage contains a number of elastic fiber and collagen. Elastin is the primary protein in this tissue, which contributes to the <u>elasticity and flexibility</u> of the above body parts. If observed under the microscope, its structure is same to hyaline but has numerous yellow elastic fibers present, which appear as a dark streak.

<h3>Outer portion of all bones</h3>

Compact bone

Compact bone or cortical bone, is the substance used to form the solid outside structure of the bones.

<h3>Inside skull bones, vertebrae, and sternum</h3>

Spongy bone

Cancellous bone, spongy bone, or trabecular bone is mostly found in the long bones, <u>covered by compact bone</u>. The bone is sponge-like in structure because it <u>houses the blood vessels inside the bones.</u>

<h3>Transports oxygen, carbon dioxide, and other substances</h3>

Blood

Blood is a connective tissue composed of red blood cells (erythrocytes), white blood cells (leukocytes), and platelets. It also connects bodily systems by t<u>ransporting nutrients, hormones, and chemical messengers, etc.</u>

<h3>Produces new blood cells and stores lipids</h3>

Bone marrow

Bone marrow is found <u>within the spongy bone</u> which houses the young blood cells until they are ready for use by the body or also called hematopoiesis.

<h3>Capable of strength with stretching and recoil in several directions</h3>

Dense irregular elastic connective tissue

For dense irregular elastic connective tissue, the elastic fibers are arranged randomly. This makes the organ <u>stretchable and</u> <u>flexible in all directions and able to return to its original shape</u>. An example of this is the dermis.

<h3>Tensile strength capable of withstanding stretch in all directions</h3>

Dense irregular collagenous connective tissue

Its fibers are also arranged in random but with fibrous tissue. It is also <u>flexible and tougher</u> compared to dense irregular elastic connective tissue. It is usually found in <u>fibrous capsule of joints and muscle fascia.</u>

<h3>Vocal folds and ligaments between vertebrae</h3>

Dense regular elastic connective tissue

For dense regular elastic connective tissue, the elastic fibers are <u>arranged in parallel</u>. It enhances the present tensile strength to a specific direction wherein the fiber is oriented.

<h3>Tendons and ligaments</h3>

Dense regular collagenous connective tissue

For dense regular collagenous connective tissue, the collagen fibers are also arranged in parallel. Tensile strength and resistance is enhanced to a specific direction wherein the fiber is oriented. The role of these tissues is to <u>transfer forces to the bone to avoid injury.</u>

<h3>Provides superstructure for lymphatic tissues</h3>

Reticular tissue

Reticular tissue is found <u>mostly with numerous amounts of cells</u>. They are composed of <em>Type 3 collagen fibrils</em> and is <em>net-like</em> in appearance, also called <em>"reticulum" </em>due to the fiber arrangement (<em>reticulin</em>). They act as a <u>scaffold of the organ/s they cover.</u>

<h3>Energy storage</h3>

Adipose tissue

Adipose tissue is composed of fat cells or adipocytes. It also functions to <u>insulate and cushion</u> the body from hard surfaces.

<h3>Epithelial basement membrane sits on this</h3>

Loose connective tissue

Loose connective tissue or<u> areolar connective tissue</u>, contains a <u>lot of cells, ground matter, and spaces in between it</u>, coining the "loose" in its name. Fibroblasts, collagen fibers, and matrix, etc., are found in almost every part of the body. This helps in <u>keeping the organs in place and some slight tough protection. </u>

<h3>Precursor to adult connective tissues</h3>

Mesenchymal tissue

Mesenchymal tissue <u>forms the body’s connective tissues</u>, from bones, cartilage, to the organ systems. It is found <u>abundant in the development of fetal tissues.</u>

<h3>Umbilical cord of the newborn</h3>

Mucous connective tissue

Mucous connective tissue is also found <u>during development of the embryo</u>. Due to <u>mucoproteins</u>, it resembles a mucus-like substance, as in <u>Wharton's jelly found in the umbilical cord</u> and <u>vitreous in the eyeball.</u>

What are the coding segments of a stretch of eukaryotic dna called?

Vladimir79 [104]

Answer:

Exons

Explanation:

The eukaryotic DNA is made up of coding segments (EXONS) and non-coding segment (INTRONS).

The pre-mRNA may contains the exons and Introns while during RNA splicing the Introns are removed from messenger RNA.

The mature mRNA which contains only exon will code for protein formation.

Name two major divisions of the nervous system

mr_godi [17]

Answer: Central and Peripheral.

Explanation: The nervous system has two major divisions: central and peripheral. The central nervous system contains the brain and the spinal cord. The peripheral nervous system contains the nerves, which leave the brain and the spinal cord and travel to certain areas of the body.

Help!!!! Please

Law Incorporation [45]

The answer is 46.

Somatic cells means body cells, including your skin cells, muscle cells, stomach cells etc. All of them has 46 chromosomes, in human. They have the complete set of chromosomes.

Meanwhile the only cells that have different chromosomes are the gametes. They only have half of the chromosomes than the somatic cells, in order to restore the correct number of chromosomes of offsprings.

Therefore, if you cut your arm, your body produce new skin cells by the process of mitosis, where the new cells would be genetically identical to the parent cell, which is the older skin cells. So, the answer is 46.
