The assortment of homologous chromosomes during meiosis is random and generates genetic variation, the raw material for evolution.
During metaphase I of meiosis, homologous chromosomes are lined up at the equator plate of the cell in order to be separated (assorted) in anaphase I.
The separation of homologous chromosomes during meiosis I is random. Daughter cells receive unique gene combinations from an original parent cell.
Subsequently, haploid cells got from two successive meiotic divisions fuse during fecundation to form a diploid (2n) zygote.
During prophase I, non-sister chromatids interchange genetic material by a process known as recombination. This genetic process also increases genetic variation in daughter cells.
In conclusion, the assortment of homologous chromosomes during meiosis is random and generates genetic variation.
Phosphorus is most commonly found in rock formations and ocean sediments as phosphate salts. Phosphate salts that are released from rocks through weathering usually dissolve in soil water and will be absorbed by plants. Phosphorus cycles through plants and animals much faster than it does through rocks and sediments. Given this information, the answer is;
<u>D. All of the above</u>
Answer:
Gills
Explanation:
In order to remove oxygen from the water, they rely on special organs called "gills." Gills are feathery organs full of blood vessels. A fish breathes by taking water into its mouth and forcing it out through the gill passages.
