Both mitosis and meiosis are associated with cytokineses. Mitosis is the same as meiosis if Mitosis happens twice.
Both processes include breaking down the nuclear membrane.
They differ because Meiosis has two rounds of genetic separation and cellular division while mitosis only has one of each. In Meiosis, homologous chromosomes separate leading to daughter cells that aren't genetically identical. In Mitosis, the daughter cells are identical to the parent as well as each other. <span />

Answer:(1) TIGHT JUNCTIONS

(2) DESMOSOMES

(3) GAP JUNCTIONS

(4) GAP JUNCTIONS

(5) DESMOSOMES.

Explanation: TIGHT JUNCTIONS also known as OCCLUDING JUNCTIONS are junctions present between adjacent cells,tight junctions prevent the passage of materials between the extracellular space of cells.

DESMOSOMES are adhesive intracellular junction connecting adjacent cells,they are also known as anchoring joints which are known to present in tissues where stress are expected.

GAP JUNCTIONS are junctions between cells which allows the movement of ions and small molecules and present in electrically exciteable tissues.

Compare and contrast dehydration synthesis(condesation) and hydrolysis.

dexar [7]

Answer:

This

Explanation:

In dehydration synthesis reactions, a water molecule is formed as a result of generating a covalent bond between two monomeric components in a larger polymer. In hydrolysis reactions, a water molecule is consumed as a result of breaking the covalent bond holding together two components of a polymer.Aug 14, 2020

Answer:

Analogous structures

Explanation:

These structures are similar but not derived from the common ancestor like homologous structures. Analogous structures are formed as a result of convergent evolution-type of evolution in which organisms develop on similar way but independently. An example of analogous structures are wings. Birds, insects and bats all have wings, with the same purpose (flight) but they evolved in their own way.

Answer:

Your bloodstream.

Explanation:

The cells in your pancreas produce insulin which needs to be sent to the rest of your body to tell your cells to take in glucose (sugar) for energy. In order to get sent out of the pancreas' cells, the insulin needs to go through your bloodstream.
