Which is TRUE of the growth plate? a. it is more dense than compact bone b. it is largest in adults c. it is cartilage that will eventually be replaced by bone d. it is located in the middle of the shaft of long bones

c. it is cartilage that will eventually be replaced by bone

Explanation:

A g rowth plate is an area located near the ends of long bones, is made up cartilage where new bone grows. This happens in children and teens and is replaced by bones when the growth process is finished.

I hope you find this information useful and interesting! Good luck!  

you are certainly talking about this picture:

a: is the label of the white square, it is showing the  replication fork, formed by helicase (d) ==> so it is the site of dna separation and replication 

b: is a new dna brand that is following directly the replication fork, so it is continuous ==> built continuously from 5' to 3

c: dna polymerase cannot replicate dna on its own, it needs the of their proteins, and one of them plays the role of a clamp which fixes  the dna with the dna template and increases  the processivity of the enzyme. ==>   stops polymerase from falling off the  template.

d: is the enzyme responsible for forming the replication fork (helicase) ==> unwinds and separates dna into two strands

e: is the delayed strand, it is built  in the opposite sense of the helicase, so dna will be built in fragments ==> built  fragments from 5' to 3 joins

and finally f: is the enzyme that builds  the new dna strand (dna polymerase) ==>   adds nucleotides to make a new dna helix.
