Answer:
M phase: 4.8 hr
Prophase: 2.4 hr
Prometaphase: 0.72 hr
Metaphase: 0.24 hr
Anaphase: 0.84 hr
Telophase: 0.6 hr
Explanation:
Mitosis, also known as M phase, is the process of nuclear division after interphase, which is followed by cytoplasmic division via cytokinesis. Mitosis can be subdivided into the following phases: Prophase, Prometaphase, Metaphase, Anaphase, and Telophase. In this case, 160 cells are in interphase (for a total of 200 cells), thereby 40 cells are in mitosis >> 200 - 160 = 40 cells. Since the complete cell cycle requires 24 hours, it is possible to calculate the average duration of each phase:
M phase: 40/200 = 0.2 x 24 hr = 4.8 hr
Prophase: 20/200 = 0.1 x 24 hr = 2.4 hr
Prometaphase: 6/200 = 0.030 x 24 hr = 0.72 hr
Metaphase: 2/200 = 0.01 x 24 hr = 0.24 hr
Anaphase: 7/200 = 0.035 x 24 hr = 0.84 hr
Telophase: 5/200 = 0.025 x 24 hr = 0.6 hr
The correct answers are options:
1. Amphibians evolved before land reptiles.
4. Elephants appear in the fossil record after dinosaurs became extinct.
The relative dating is a technique of dating with respect to any past event. In this case, two events are discussed to be occurred in a sequence related to one-another. In the option 1, the amphibians are said to be evolved before reptiles. So, the evolution of the amphibians is relatively dated with the evolution of reptiles. Same in the option 4, the evolution of the elephants is relatively dated with the extinction of the dinosaurs.
None of the above is correct.
Answer:
Due to a primary consumer being taken out there will be more producers and less secondary consumers because of the new tertiary consumer eating them and the lack of food for the secondary.
