What holds non-sister chromatids of homologous chromosomes together in prophase i of meiosis?

The correct answer is: The synaptonemal complex.

Non-sister chromatids are chromatids from two homologous chromosomes. In prophase I of meiosis two homologous chromosomes pair and this pairing is called synapsis. This allows possible crossing over to occur. Two non-sister chromatids are connected in synapsis by a protein-RNA complex called the synaptonemal complex.

Crossing-over or the physical exchange of chromosome parts might occur and bring to genetic recombination. The sites of crossing-over between nonsister chromatids and are called chiasmata.

A cell under a microscope shows Two daughter cells were formed and they are haploid. Which stage of meiosis is the cell showing?
Monica [59]
<span>Meiosis is the process of cell division that reduces the chromosome number by half. During the process two phases (two nuclear divisions) occur: Meiosis I and Meiosis II. Meiosis I is the phase of reduction and Meiosis II is the division. So, if a cell under a microscope shows two daughter cells and they aye haploid than this is the stage Meiosis II, in which the cell is divided into two daughter cells.</span><span />

one reason that electric power plants do not send out electrical energy as a direct current is that direct current can not be tr
777dan777 [17]

This is because direct power has no pulsation (waveform characteristic) that is significant in electromagnetic induction. The gradual increase and decrease of power, at a given frequency, in indirect power is significant in electromagnetic induction. This enables transformers to induce electricity into the secondary coil, from the primary coil, at the core of the transformer.Transformers transform electric power by increasing or decreasing the voltage and current of electricity.

Cultures of a bacterial species were incubated on the shelf of a refrigerator (5 C), out on a lab bench top (22 C), on the shelf
Setler79 [48]

D) Psychrotrophs.

Explanation:

  • Psychrotrophs are those bacteria which can tolerate cold temperature and have optimum growth above 15 degree Celsius.
  • Halophiles prefer high salt concentration.
  • Mesophiles prefer temperatures with a average of 37 degree Celsius.
  • Anaerobes grow in absence of oxygen.
  • In the given experiment, none of the bacterial cultures were placed in saline or anaerobic conditions. So, the bacterial species is not an anaerobe or halophile.
  • Again the cultures did not show growth at 37 degree celsius so they are not mesophiles.
  • Maximum growth at 22 degree celsius and a little growth in refrigerator make it obvious that the species is a Psychrotroph.
