What are types of melanin
Eumelanin and pheomelanin
Red bone marrow
Found in sponge bone; site of hematopoiesis
The role of DNA in the production of proteins
DNA contains instructions
When does DNA replication happen in the cell
S phase
Correct order for mitosis
Prophase, metaphase, anapase, telophase
Compact bone
Dense, hard layers of of bone tissue that lie underneath the periosteum
What does a colon code for
Amino acids
Tibia
Shin bone located in each leg (face the front of the leg)
Upper jaw bone
Maxilla
When your skin is exposed to hot temperatures, the blood vessels within it:

DNA polymerase
Condition resulting in achy and stiff joints, especially in the morning. Associated with aging and loss of articulat cartilage.
Arthritis
Neurotransmitter that tells muscles to contract
Acetylcholine
Osteocytes
Bone cells
Frontal
Anterior portion of the skull above the eyes.
Lowet jaw bone
Mandible
S. Granulosum
Cells of this layer contain keratohyalin
The period during which cells grow and copy their DNA is known as
Interphase
Xiphoid process
The lower part of the sternum that projects downward to the point where the sternum meets the lower ribs
Step in mitosis when the chromatin condensed, the nuclear envelope break down, and the nucleolus disappears.
Prophase
Axial skeleton
A group of bones that consist on the central axis of the organism
Where does transcription occur
Nucleus
