The sign of life dealing with an increase of living tissue or formation of new structures is?

The sign of life dealing with an increase of living tissue or formation of new structures is growth. Growth is a fundamental characteristic of living organisms and is essential for development and adaptation to the environment. It involves the synthesis of new molecules and the expansion of cells or tissues.


Is connective tissue living?

Yes, connective tissue is living tissue made up of cells and extracellular matrix. The cells in connective tissue help to maintain and repair the tissue, while the extracellular matrix provides structural support.


What are molecules that are produced within one tissue but regulate a different tissue of the same organ called?

They are called paracrine factors or paracrine molecules. These molecules are secreted by one type of cell and act on neighboring cells within the same organ or tissue to regulate their function.


The examination of a piece of living tissue?

Biopsy is the removal of living tissue for microscopic examination. Biomicroscopy is the microscopic examination of living tissue.Related terms:Histology is the study of tissue.Histopathology is the study of diseased tissue.


What type of tissue has large amounts of nonliving matrix?

The bones have the largest amount of minerals, calcium and phosphorus, in its extracellular matrix. Teeth, which are specialized bone, have additional enamel that makes them even stronger. That answer has nothing to do with the question asked....but the answer is connective tissue.

When gamma rays pass through living tissue do they damage molecules?

Yes, gamma rays can damage molecules in living tissue by ionizing atoms and disrupting chemical bonds. This can lead to mutations in cells and potentially cause harm, including increasing the risk of cancer.


Is Brownian movement peculiar to living tissue?

Yes, Brownian movement is peculiar to living tissue. It is the random movement of microscopic particles caused by the direct impact with the molecules of surrounding also called molecular movement.


What happens when gamma rays strike living tissue?

When a gamma ray strikes living tissue (as when it strikes any matter) it deposits energy through excitation and ionization of the tissue's atoms and molecules. Since most of the matter in tissue is water, this mostly happens to water molecules. This creates free radicals (such as hydroxyl radicals), hydrogen peroxide, etc. These can then damage biological molecules such as DNA and this is known as an indirect effect. The gamma ray can also excite or ionize biological molecules directly.
