- B.
Spongy
- C.
Both
Correct Answer
A. CompactExplanation
The correct answer is "compact" because compact bone is dense and solid, providing strength and support to the skeleton. It is found in the outer layer of bones and forms the majority of the bone tissue. Compact bone also contains the central canal, which houses blood vessels and nerves. In contrast, spongy bone is porous and contains trabeculae, while the central canal is not present in this type of bone. Therefore, the answer "compact" is the most appropriate choice based on the given information.Rate this question:

The hradness of bones is due to
- A.
Osteocytes
- B.
Lamellae
- C.
Osteons
- D.
Mineral salts
Correct Answer
D. Mineral saltsExplanation
The hardness of bones is due to the presence of mineral salts. These mineral salts, such as calcium and phosphate, contribute to the strength and rigidity of bones. They form a dense matrix within the bone tissue, providing structural support and resistance to compression. Without mineral salts, bones would be more flexible and prone to fractures. Osteocytes, lamellae, and osteons are all components of bone tissue but do not directly contribute to the hardness of bones.Rate this question:
