Meiosis is important because it ensures that all organisms produced via sexual reproduction contain the correct number of chromosomes. Meiosis also produces variation by way of the process of recombination.

Recombination- Recombination during Meiosis is facilitated by chromosomal crossover. The crossover process leads to offspring having different combinations of genes from those of their parents and can occasionally produce new chimeric alleles.

8. if you removed all the cheetahs from a large area of savanna which of the following is a direct effect that could be explaine
steposvetlana [31]

Answer: Option B

Explanation: If all the cheetahs from the savanna is removed then the population of the gazelle will increase.

The shrubs and trees are producers that is eaten up by the herbivores animals. They at not eaten by the cheetah.

The lion is also not eaten up by the cheetah. There will be no effect o the population of the lions.

Hence, there will be an increase in the population of the gazelle.

4. The mass of ball A is 10 kilograms and the mass of ball B is 5 kilograms. If
Nookie1986 [14]
4.) We are told that ball A is travelling from right to left, which we will refer to as a positive direction, making the initial velocity of ball A, +3 m/s. If ball B is travelling in the opposite direction to A, it will be travelling at -3 m/s. The final velocity of A is +2 m/s. Using the elastic collision equation, which uses the conservation of linear momentum, we can solve for the final velocity of B.

MaVai + MbVbi = MaVaf + MbVbf

Ma = 10 kg and Mb = 5 kg are the masses of balls A and B.
Vai = +3 m/s and Vbi = -3 m/s are the initial velocities.
Vaf = +2 m/s and Vbf = ? are the final velocities.

(10)(3) + (5)(-3) = (10)(2) + 5Vbf
30 - 15 = 20 + 5Vbf
15 = 20 + 5Vbf
-5 = 5 Vbf
Vbf = -1 m/s

The final velocity of ball B is -1 m/s.

5.) We are now told that Ma = Mb, but Vai = 2Vbi

We can use another formula to look at this mathematically.

Vaf = [(Ma - Mb)/(Ma + Mb)]Vai + [(2Mb/(Ma + Mb)]Vbi

Since Ma = Mb we can simplify this formula.

Vaf = [(0)/2Ma]Vai + [2Ma/2Ma]Vbi
Vaf = Vbi

Vbf = [(2Ma/(Ma + Mb)]Vai + [(Ma - Mb)/(Ma + Mb)]Vbi
Vbf = [2Mb/2Mb]Vai + [(0)/2Mb]Vbi
Vbf = Vai

Vaf = Vbi
Vbf = 2Vbi

If the initial velocity of A is twice the initial velocity of B, then the final velocity of A will be equal to the initial velocity of B.

If the initial velocity of A is twice the initial velocity of B, then the final velocity of B will be twice the initial velocity of B.
