Answer: The endocrine system sends chemicals called hormones through the bloodstream to change short-term and long-term activities in the body
Explanation: Endocrine system is a system made up of glands that produce and secrete chemical signal called hormones which travel through the bloodstream to the target cell where they exert their effects.
A hormone is a chemical messenger secreted by an endocrine gland. Long-term activities in the body influenced by hormones include growth and development.
Answer: they can be either dominant or recessive
Explanation: due to the effects of one Gene are usually inherited in a simple mendelian pattern.
Answer: a) true
Explanation:
The goal of mitosis is to produce daughter cells that are genetically identical to the mother cell, without a single extra or missing chromosome. Meiosis, on the other hand, is only used for one purpose in the human body: the production of gametes or sex cells, i.e. sperm and eggs. The question is oriented to mitosis, <u>in which prior to this cell division, the cell duplicates its DNA</u> so that each daughter cell then inherits the genetic material. That is, the cell originally possesses 23 chromosomes, they duplicate to a total of 46 so that then each daughter cell receives 23.
The metaphase is the second phase of mitosis and meiosis that occurs after prophase where the envelope is lost and microtubules of the achromatic spindle (also called meiotic or mitotic) appear.
During metaphase, the chromosomes align themselves in the middle of the cell and this balanced midline spindle alignment is due to the equal and opposing forces generated by the kinetochore brothers.
Then during metaphase, the chromosomes will line up in the center of the cell to be separated and go each to a different daughter cell. But the moment they're found there, each orientation of chromosomes produces gametes with the same genetic information from each parent. <u>Because because there have been no changes or mutations in the chromosomes, they have duplicated and have the same genetic information.</u>
Cancer cells reproduce the same way the other cells reproduce. The difference between cancer cells and others is that their reproduction is uncontrollable. They constantly go through the cell cycle and they reproduce. Two ways cell reproductions are meiosis and mitosis. DNA duplicates itself. Cancer is incessantly receiving messages.
