Answer:
The major structural difference between chromatin and chromosomes is that the latter are more organized and condensed.
Explanation:
Chromatin is genetic material packaged into a complex by special proteins (histones). That complex is in the form of uncoiled structures, so chromatin fibers are long and thin. Chromatin structure is permissive to DNA replication, transcription and recombination events.
On the other hand, chromosomes are highly condensed structures of genetic material that are formed just before the cell division.
The rocks near the mid-ocean ridge were younger then rock near trenches. Matching bands of magnetic rocks were found on either side of the mid-ocean ridge; bands like tree ring - record changes in earths magnetic field over time. Earthquake data showed oceanic crust is sinking on to the mantle at trenches.
Answer:
B. It allows for genetic variation.
Explanation:
As prophase progresses, homologous chromosomes come to lie side by side and become intertwined rather like a zipper. This process is called synapsis. During synapsis, homologous chromosomes exchange genetic material between one another which allows for genetic variation. This exchange is called crossing over.
