Do research about new hypothesis that has replaced an older explanation of something in the natural world

Gre4nikov [31]3 years ago

I believe that what is meant with the phrase "older explanation" is none other that superstition. Therefore, I will give you one superstitious belief which is now explained by science.

In Southeast Asia, people used to believe that St. Elmo's fire appears in remote areas because a bloody battle occured in that place leaving disembodied souls of the dead wandering there in the night and even in sunshine!

For generations, many people believed that this is a fact and some even say that these apparitions are diabolical or demonic in nature. So often, caution is advised to people whenever a ball of fire appears out in the open. 

However, recent breakthroughs in the 21st century helped scientists to explain this mysterious phenomena. They found out that St. Elmo's fire is actually plasma, nothing special. Now, plasma is considered one of the states of matter! But mind you, it still does not explain why St. Elmo's fire seems to have a mind of its own!

Which statement most likely describes the daughter cells produced in the diagram
Juliette [100K]

Answer:

The daughter cells will each produce offspring that will have the same genetic information as the original cell.

Explanation:

The diagram you were given is shown in the image attached below. The options you were given are the following:

  • The daughter cells will pass on only half of the genetic information they received from the original cell.
  • The daughter cells will each produce offspring that will have the same genetic information as the original cell.
  • The daughter cells will each undergo the same mutations as the original cell after reproduction has occurred.
  • The daughter cells will not pass on any of the genes that they received from the original cell.

The diagram shows what cell division looks like. Cell division is the process in which we get two daughter cells from one parent cell. When a cell divides, everything in it divides as well. This is how daughter cells end up with the same structure (e.g. same organelles) as their parent cell.

The daughter cells have the same genetic information as their parent cell. This means that the cells produced by these daughter cells will have the same genetic information as the original parent cell.
