The stages of mitosis were originally defined by cellular features observable through a light microscope.
Brrunno [24]

Answer: TRUE

Explanation:

The cell division that takes place during the growth and development of an organism is in an as MITOSIS. Mitosis takes place in somatic cells that is, body cells that are not involved in the production of gametes. The difference stages of mitosis were originally defined by cellular features observable through a LIGHT MICROSCOPE. These stages includes:

--> PROPHASE: when viewed under a light microscope, each chromosome shortens and thickens and is seen to consist of two chromatids. The Centriole begin to separate.

--> METAPHASE: The nuclear membrane disappears, a spindle forms, the chromosomes line up across the middle of the cell and become attached to the spindle fibres at their centromeres.

--> ANAPHASE: The sister chromatids are pulled apart to opposite ends of cell as the spindle fibres contract.

--> TELOPHASE: A nuclear membrane forms around each set of chromatids, and the cell divides into two daughter cells.

Why can't prokaryotic species be defined as a group of similar organisms that could sexually reproduce together?
s344n2d4d5 [400]

Answer:

The prokaryote divides by asexual mode of reproduction.

Explanation:

The concept of species which defines a species as a group of individuals of a population which can interbred and produce a fertile progeny is applicable to the organism which can reproduce sexually.

Since the bacteria divide through asexual means and not through sexual ways therefore the concept of defining a species becomes complicated and does not apply.However the concept of species in prokaryotes is still a topic of research.  

Thus, the biological concept of species is not applicable to prokaryotes.

“lord randall” is an example of a ballad whose structure is
kakasveta [241]
“Lord Randall” is a Scottish ballad in the form of a narrative song. A narrative song is a song that depicts or tells a story. A ballad is unique for it directly tells a story and emphasizes climactic incidents. It strips away those details which are not important to the plot. The story of “Lord Randall” narrates about a man who has been poisoned by his lover. The story does not tell about the incident’s background nor is the audience aware why the man has been poisoned. The story just shows the man revealing that he has been poisoned, his statement of his last will and testament, and his curse on the lover who planned to kill him. The technique shown in this story is what we call the incremental repetition. The incremental repetition is usually observed in poetry of oral tradition wherein a line is repeated in a changed context or with minor changes in the repeated part.
