You are a mosquito and your body cells have 3 pairs of chromosomes, giving you a total (diploid) number of 6 chromosomes. After

At the beginning of mitosis, a mosquito cell has six double-stranded chromosomes. This cell will have split into two daughter cells with six chromosomes each at the end of mitosis. Consequently, 6 chromosomes will be provided to each daughter cell (single-stranded).

<h3>What is mitosis?</h3>

One cell divides into two genetically identical daughter cells during the cell duplication process known as mitosis. The cell's chromosomes are duplicated throughout the process of mitosis and then divided equally between the two daughter cells' two new nuclei.

Every chromosome acquires identical copies of the parent cell's DNA thanks to anaphase. At their centromere, the sister chromatids divide in half to form distinct, identical chromosomes.

Answer:

i) Rusting occurs the least in tubes 2 and 3 because either of air and water which are necessary for rusting is absent in the two tubes respectively.

ii) Rusting occurs most in tube 1 because both air and water which are necessary for rusting are present.

Explanation:

Rusting is a chemical change which involves a redox reaction. During the process of rusting, metallic iron is oxidized to hydrated iron (iii) oxide by oxygen present in air.

For rusting to take place effectively, each of these three factors mist be available: metallic iron, oxygen and water.

In the figure above, the iron nails in the three tester tubes will rust to different extents based on the availability of the three factors.

In test tube 1, the iron nails will rust the most because all the three factors: metallic iron, oxygen present in air, and water are abundantly present.

In test tube 2, the iron nails will rust the least or not at all because boiling of water removes dissolved oxygen from water and the oil layer above the boiled water prevents entry of oxygen from air. Thus, the nail do not rust because one of the three factors for rusting to take place, in this instance, oxygen is absent.

In test tube 3, the iron nails rusts the least or not at all as well because moisture or water is absent. Calcium chloride, a drying agent removes all the moisture from inside the tube. Hence, even though air is present, rusting do not occur as there is no moisture or water present.
