Question

1 0.5 Bone tissue (or osseous tissue) is composed of extracellular collage (a large protein), mineral (calcium salts and other minerals) and bone cells (i.e. osteocytes). Osteogenesis Imperfecta (Ol, aka brittle bone disease) is a congenital bone disorder in which a mutation in the DNA results in a change in one monomer of collagen. Improper formation of collagen fibers leads to an irregular arrangement of osseous tissue. This results in brittle, easily broken bones For Ol, the provided evidence suggests that: molecular function is affecting atomic function. tissue function is affecting organismal structure. tissue structure is affecting cell structure molecular structure is affecting organ function. DI 2 0.5 Bone tissue (or osseous tissue) is composed of extracellular collage (a large protein), mineral (calcium salts and other minerals) and bone cells (i.e. osteocytes). Osteogenesis Imperfecta (OI, aka brittle bone disease) is a congenital bone disorder in which a mutation in the DNA results in a change in one monomer of collagen. Improper formation of collagen fibers leads to an irregular arrangement of osseous tissue. This results in brittle, easily broken bones For Ol, what type of monomer is affected? Amino acid Monosaccharide Glycerol Nucleotide

Explanation / Answer

1. Molecular structure affecting organ function

2. it is amino acid affecting

change in amino acid distort type I procollagen
