Answer:

M phase

Explanation:

While there are many checkpoints within the cell cycle, the specific checkpoint you are referring to most likely takes place in the M (mitosis) phase.

Before the M phase (which includes the G1, S, and G2 phases), the cell grows, the number of organelles increases, and DNA replicates. After the G2 phase, the M phase begins. At the beginning of this phase, the DNA condenses, lines up in the center of the cell, attaches to spindle fibers, and is pulled to opposite ends of the cell. If this checkpoint receives the proper signal, the actual division of the cell will occur.

Archaebacteria look much alike organisms from what other kingdom due to their similar shapes?

Goshia [24]

Step-by- step-Explanation:

Archaebacteria are very similar to Bacteria with respect to their cell size,prokaryotic organisation,circular DNA etc.
Archaebacteria very similar to Gram-positive bacteria on the basis of cell structure.
Both bacteria and Archaebacteria have several similar Metabolic Pathways.
Unlike Bacteria Archaebacteria are habitants of extreme climates like hot springs and ice capped continents.

Thus Archaebacteria are much alike to Eubacteria.

Why would you learn less about an organism if it is were isolated from its surroundings than if you were able to observe the sam

Dahasolnce [82]

Answer:

this one`s been up for debate for awhile now.

1. it depends on the organism

learning about an organism could be considered 'easier' to study in different ways. for example, if you are studying marine life, you will most likely have to keep it in a water habitat to watch it alive. If you are studying a land species, then watching from it`s natural habitat will give you more accurate results. sometimes the environment can affect an organisms internal systems more than you may think. this leads into my second point.

2. it depends on what you are trying to study

if you are trying to learn about the mating process, seasonal activity, migration, or external behavior, then monitoring it from it`s natural habitat or an area that is a close copy is your best option. but if you are looking into studying internal organs/systems or cells, then in <em>most</em> cases, the organism will need to be taken out of its natural habitat. only in very careful situations is it left in a habitat during examination.
