Answer: Cytoskeleton and cytoplasm

The cytoskeleton is a network of microfilaments that provide structure and support for the cell. You can think of them as the pillars/columns that hold up a house.

The cytoplasm is the aqueous fluid that fills the inside of the cell. This fluid is very important for giving a cell is shape/support. If the cytoplasm was drained out of a cell its shape would collapse like a water balloon losing its water.

Nuclear envelope forms at each pole spindle dissolves chromosomes uncoil. True or False

Doss [256]

Answer:

True.

Explanation:

There are four phases which occur during karyokinesis, these are -

Prophase
Metaphase
Anaphase
Telophase

Telophase is the last phase of karyokinesis. The main events that occur during telophase are-

Uncoiling of chromosome occurs
Chromatin is formed
Spindle breaks down
Nuclear membrane or nuclear envelope if reformed

Thus it is clear that the events that are mentioned in the question denote truly about the Telophase.

A man who has type B blood has children with a woman who has type A blood. A. If they are both heterozygous for this trait, pred

Ivenika [448]

Answer:

The possible blood types of their children are: type AB (iAiB), type A (iAi), type B (iBi), type O (ii)

Explanation:

Blood type in humans is controlled by a gene with multiple alleles. Alleles iA and iB are dominant over allele i but co-dominant. The following blood types are encoded by the following alleles:

Blood type AB - iAiB

Blood type A - iAiA or iAi

Blood type B - iBiB or iBi

Blood type O - ii

According to this question, a man who has type B blood has children with a woman who has type A blood. They are both heterozygous, meaning that the man's genotype is "iBi" while the woman's genotype is "iAi". Both parents will produce gametes as follows:

iBi = iB and i

iAi = iA and I

Using these gametes in a punnet square (see attached image), the following possible blood types are produced in the offsprings:

- type AB (iAiB)

- type A (iAi)

- type B (iBi)

- type O (ii)
