During meiosis but not during mitosis, which of the following is true? __.
A haploid gametes are produced that are identical in their allelic composition
B the cytoplasm divides
C chromosomes line up in the center of the cell during metaphase
D genetic variation among the daughter cells is increased
E two identical daughter cells are produced
Answer:
D. genetic variation among the daughter cells is increased
Explanation:
Meiosis is a process where a single cell divides twice to produce four cells containing half the original amount of genetic information. Meiosis occurs in germ cells, as a result; genetic variation among the daughter cells is increased. These cells (germ cells) are our sex cells – sperm in males, eggs in females.
In meiosis, the haploid gametes that are produced are not identical in their allelic composition.
In prophase 1, the chromosome pair up.
During metaphase, The chromosome pairs line up next to each other along the center (equator) of the cell.
a central vacuole is a cellular organelle found in plant cells
The reactants of photosynthesis are water, carbon dioxide and light energy.<span>Plants use these reactants to make the food that is essential for plant growth.</span>
Answer:
There are both natural and human sources of carbon dioxide emissions. Natural sources include decomposition, ocean release and respiration. Human sources come from activities like cement production, deforestation as well as the burning of fossil fuels like coal, oil and natural gas.
Explanation:
<h2>Ovulation </h2>
Explanation:
In women, luteinizing hormone carries out different roles in the two halves of the menstrual cycle
- In week one to two of the cycle, luteinizing hormone is required to stimulate the ovarian follicles in the ovary to produce the female sex hormone, oestradiol
- Around day 14 of the cycle, a surge in luteinizing hormone levels causes the ovarian follicle to tear and release a mature oocyte (egg) from the ovary, a process called ovulation
- For the remainder of the cycle (weeks three to four), the remnants of the ovarian follicle forms a corpus luteum
- Luteinizing hormone stimulates the corpus luteum to produce progesterone, which is required to support the early stages of pregnancy, if fertilization occurs
