i feel that way sometimes too
Answer:
B (Metaphase I)
Explanation:
Meiosis is one of the two types of cell divisions that results in 4 daughter cells (gametes) with each having half the number of chromosomes as the parent cell. During meiosis, cell division occurs twice because before the separation of two halves of a duplicated chromosome called sister chromatids, there still need to be separation of homologous pairs, which is a similar but non-identical pair of chromosome received from both parents. Hence, meiosis occurs in a two step division process; meiosis I and meiosis II.
During Prophase I, which is the first stage of meiosis I, homologous chromosomes pair up side by side to form a structure called TETRAD or BIVALENT and likely undergo crossing over( when segments of homologous chromosomes get broken and refixed interchangeably).
After crossing over, the spindle fibres (from the centrosomes) begin to attach to the centromeres of each chromosomes and move them towards the center of the cell called METAPHASE PLATE. Hence, they become aligned on the equator towards either side of the pole. Each chromosome attaches to microtubules from one pole of the spindle and the two homologues of a pair bind to microtubules from opposite poles. Hence, in Metaphase I, homologous pairs, not individual chromosomes, line up at the Metaphase plate/equator for separation.
The orientation of the line up of homologous chromosomes determines which chromosomes enter into the same cell i.e. the alignment of chromosomes towards the same pole determines which chromosomes enter into the same cell to form the genetic composition of gametes. In an organism with two sets of chromosomes (diploid), there are four possible combinations in which chromosomes are arranged in the metaphase plate, resulting in differences in chromosomal distribution in daughter cells/gametes, the process of independent assortment
Answer: a
Explanation:
radio waves have the longest wavelengths so it has the lowest energy
Answer:
yes, sexual reproduction leads to the selection of better individuals for a particular environment
Explanation:
Natural selection can be defined as a mechanism associated with the survival and reproduction of individuals better adapted to their environment. Sexual reproduction is able to increase genetic variation, which is the primary source on which natural selection works. In consequence, individuals that exhibit an evolutionary adaptive phenotypic variant will have more chance to survive and to reproduce than those individuals with other less adaptive traits, thereby leading to evolution of the population and tending to optimize phenotypic variants for particular environmental conditions.
The correct answer here is False. The Benthic Zone lies below the Pelagic zone, which is not what it shows in this question.
