The process of reshaping the bone is called <u>remodeling </u>and it is one of the major factors responsible for increasing size of marrow cavity.

Sort the statements based on whether they describe DNA replication in eukaryotes or prokaryotes. Replication takes place in the
Ilya [14]
In eukaryotes, <em>replication takes place in the nucleus</em> as prokaryotes do not have a true nucleus and <em>replication takes place in the cytoplasm</em>. The nucleus of the eukaryotes is the location where genetic material (DNA) is found; in prokaryotes, the genetic material is condensed in the cytoplasm called the nucleoid. There are multiple replication forks or <em>multiple origins of replication </em>in eukaryotes in contrast to prokaryotes which only has <em>one origin of replication. </em>Lastly, replication in eukaryotes <em>occurs at multiple points along the chromosome; </em>in contrast with prokaryotes where it <em>occurs at just one point on the chromosome.</em>

Below are three different scenarios for comparison. For each scenario, decide if it represents greater or less entropy and great
uranmaximum [27]

Answer:

Entropy is characterized as a level of irregularity or disorder in a system. More the disorder more is the Entropy. The greatest entropy is accomplished when the system is in equilibrium.  

In a similar manner, stability is legitimately relative to entropy. Therefore, more entropy, more is the stability and the other way around.

<u>S.No      Scenarios                Entropy                  Stability </u>

A               Glucose                    Less                   Less

How do day-neutral and intermediate-day photoperiod plants differ in their requirements?
Anastasy [175]

Answer:

Photoperiod signifies towards the time that an animal or a plant gets exposed to light in a twenty-four-hour duration. Different types of plants need different durations of light exposure to follow their respective life cycles.  

On the basis of getting exposed to light differently, the plants are differentiated into short-day plants, long-day plants, day-neutral plants, and intermediate-day plants. The day-neutral plants will undergo flowering at any length of the day, given that there is the availability of minimum amount of light, which is essential for usual growth. For example, beans, tropical plants, cotton, and others.  

On the other hand, the intermediate-day plants will not flower if the days are too long or too short, like different varieties of grasses.
