Oxygen Cycle just try looking it up next time ok
Dorothy Mary Crowfoot Hodgkin was the first to develop protein crystallography and she won Nobel Prize for that discovery ( third woman to win the Nobel Prize in Chemistry). Hodgkin confirmed the structure of penicillin but also realized the structure of vitamin B12 by x-ray crystallography analysis. She advanced the classical technique of X-ray crystallography.
There are basically three types of evolution divergent, convergent and parallel evolution.
a) Divergent Evolution – As the name depicts the species in this form of evolution becomes divergent i.e they evolve to become different from each other. This form of evolution is responsible for the current diversity of organisms existing on planet earth. For example human and apes evolved from a common primate ancestor.
b) Convergent Evolution – In this evolution, different species of organisms living in a similar biosphere start share common traits in the form of analogous features. For example – Whale and fish are not closely related species but they both have fins which are different in structure but have the same function.
c) Parallel evolution – In this evolution the similar characteristics between the two set of organisms are maintained though the two species continue evolving separately. For example - marsupial mammals of Australia and the Placental mammals
Answer:
Meiosis results in gametes that are used in reproduction.
Explanation:
- <em>The sperm and egg have twice as many chromosomes as the parental cells</em>. INCORRECT. Sperm and eggs are the gametes, and they have only half the number of chromosomes that can be found in the germ cells or somatic cells. Gametes are haploid, n.
- <em>Geneticists use the terms "son" and "daughter" to distinguish between cells resulting from cell division</em>. INCORRECT. The term "daughter cells" is used to refer to the products of cell division. "son cells" is not used at all.
- <em>Meiosis results in gametes that are used in reproduction. </em>CORRECT. Germ cells are the reproductive, diploid cells produced by testes and ovaries. After meiosis, each germ cell produces four haploid cells that are the gametes. Gametes´ destiny is to merge during fecundation, creating a new diploid cell called the zygote. The zygote is a diploid cell that suffers successive mitosis to form the new organism.
- <em>Asexual reproduction requires the production of eggs and sperm. </em>INCORRECT. Only sexual reproduction needs gametes. Cells that reproduce asexually duplicate their genetic material and cytoplasmic content and then divide, producing a new cell identical to its parental. This is the case of binary fission, for example.
