The process of meiosis is the cell division that prepares the species for sexual reproduction. Through meiosis cells goes from diploid (2n) cells to haploid (n) gamates. Each daughter cell carries exactly one half of the genetic material from the mother cell. In females the result of meiosis is the production of egg cells, where in the male, the result of meiosis is the production of sperm cells.

What is it called when a living thing copies the appearance of another living thing as a mean of protection?
anygoal [31]

Answer:

It is called mimicry when a living thing copies the appearance of another living thing as a means of protection.

Explanation:

Mimicry is used primarily by living things as a means for protection and to decrease the chances of the living thing being killed. For example, a frog that is prey to a toad could have bright colors (bright color frogs are often poisonous) that don't mean anything to the frog and it's species, but to the toad, the frog is poisonous and should not be eaten, so the toad does not eat the frog because it is brightly colored.

Without mimicry, the frog would have been eaten because it wouldn't have had looked like a poisonous frog, or something that the toad would avoid.

Loess is soil formed by
zzz [600]

Loess is a geologically material which is usually yellowish or brown in color and consisting of tiny mineral particles brought by wind to the places where they now lie. It is a sedimentary deposit of mineral particles which are finer than sand but coarser than dust or clay, deposited by the wind. Loess is a type of silt which forms fertile topsoil in some parts of the world. The soil has few clay particles to hold it together. It is composed mainly of quartz crystals which slide easily against each other, and is therefore very subject to erosion.
