Cartilage has a flexible matrix that can accommodate mitosis of chondrocytes. True or False

Cartilage has a flexible matrix that can accommodate mitosis of chondrocytes. True

Explanation:

Cartilage is a tissue, and there can be three different types: fibrous, hyaline and elastic. The cells in each one are in different positions and all theses types can be found in different parts of the body. The cartilage's matrix is made up of glycosaminoglycans, proteoglycans, collagen fibers and, sometimes, elastin. The chondrocytes are specialized cells that produce collagenous extracellular matrix, abundant ground substance that is rich in proteoglycan and elastin fibers.

1) gene flow

- it is described as the transfer of genes from one population to another population so that frequency of gene is increased.

-a zebra migrates to join a different herd of zebras.

2) natural selection

- a mechanism of evolutionary change in which individuals with advantageous traits survive and reproduce whereas the others ( those that can not adapt) eliminate from the population.

-competition for sunlight leads to taller trees.

3) mutation

- permanent change in the nucleotide sequence of dna ( genetic material) that could have harmful or useful consequences.

-the dna of a snake changes to make its venom stronger.

4) genetic drift - it is a random phenomenon ( that occurs by chance such as fire) that results in change in the gene frequency in a small population.    

-a grassfire randomly sweeps through a population of buffalo and kills most of the animals.
