The answer is d.

Meiosis is a kind of cell division that produces daughter cells that are genetically different to parent cells and contains half number of chromosomes comparing to parent cells.

At the beginning, the parent cell duplicates its chromosomes just like mitosis. The cell divides and leads to 2 genetically identical daughter cells.

This is where mitosis ends. But in meiosis, the 2 cells produced divides again, but without duplicating it's chromosomes. Therefore, this leads to 4 daughter cells at the end, each with halved number of chromosomes.

When a cell has a halved number of chromosomes, it's said to be haploid.

This is usually common in gametes so that biodiversity can be achieved.

Therefore, the answer to this is d.

How is the cell of a one-celled organism different from the cells in a many-celled organism?

Cells that are in multicellular organisms are suited to do specific jobs and work together to help the organism stay alive. Single celled organisms have to perform all the actions themselves in order to stay alive. :)

Write an argumentative essay which says without photosynthesis there is no life

AysviL [449]

Explanation:

you could include the points such as,

--> photosynthesis produces O2 which is necessary for respiration.

-->photosynthesis reduces the amount of CO2 in the atmosphere as it uses it up in the reaction. this controls the atmospheric rate of CO2 and reduced the greenhouse effect.

--> plants are the primary producers in a food chain and so, photosynthesis plays a primary role in the stability of food chains as they're the primary source of glucose as all the higher consumption is based off the producer.

--> virtually seeing, all the energy within the biosphere is based off plants that depends on photosynthesis.

--> If photosynthesis ceased, there would soon be little food or other organic matter on Earth, most organisms would disappear, and Earth's atmosphere would eventually become nearly devoid of gaseous oxygen.

there could be more but this is all I could think of.

hope it helps. :)

After Pedro had breakfast, he went for a run. Identify at least three energy transformations that had to take place to allow Ped

FromTheMoon [43]

I tried my best to answer.

1) Chemical to mechanical (calories -> muscle contractions)
2) mechanical to mechanical (muscle -> motion)
3) mechanical to thermal (motion -> heat from the body causes sweating)

The potential energy is stored in the body chemically (via food). That potential energy is then released when the body is put in motion.
