Identify the stage of mitosis where the chromatids line up on the equator of the cell

1 answer:

4 0

The stages of mitosis are:
1. Prophase
2. Metaphase
3. Anaphase
4. Telophase

Prophase
This is when the centrioles separate and move to opposing sides of the cell.

Metaphase
This is when the chromosomes line up in the center of the cell and become connected.

Anaphase
This is when the "sister" chromatids separate into individual chromosomes and are pulled apart.

Telophase
This is the last phase of mitosis, when chromosomes gather at opposite ends of the cell and new nuclear membranes form.

The answer is metaphase, because that is when the chromatids line up in the center of the cell.

Answer:
Metaphase

Which of these implants itself into the wall of the uterus during pregnancy?

satela [25.4K]

Implantation is the major sign of pregnancy for various women, it is a stage in which a zygote of fertilized egg limplants into the wall of the uterus.

Implantation usually takes place 6 to 10 days post ovulation, or day 20 to 24 of a menstrual cycle. However, it can take place a few days later or earlier. Once fertilization takes place, the egg remains the fallopian tuve for three days prior of getting inside the uterus and starts to implant itself to the walls of the uterus.

Why don't epidermal ridges form in thin skin?

xxTIMURxx [149]

Thin Skin. The epidermis differs from that of thick skin in having thinner stratum spinosum, granulosum, and corneum, and lacks the stratum lucidum (Thin Skin 1). The dermis is not arranged in ridges, but does project into the epidermis as true papillae. However, no epidermal ridges are produced

Please answer 5&6. Thank you.

erastovalidia [21]

Answer:

5. The correct answer would be an option A. ova

Note: I assume that all the samples are of human origin.

DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) content of somatic cells of humans consists of 46 chromosomes or 23 pairs of chromosomes. Gametes (sperm or ova) are haploid cells produced by the process of meiosis and contain half the number of chromosomes found in parent cell. Hence, they contain 23 chromosomes.

6. The correct answer would be an option J.

Sperm formation or spermatogenesis is the process by which spermatozoa (haploid gamete) is produced from germ cell with the help of meiotic division.

Meiosis results in the formation of four haploid (n) cells from single diploid (2n) parent cell. Here, 2n is given as 8 so, n would be equal to 4.

Meiosis I results in the formation of two secondary spermatocyte cells (both haploid or 4 chromosomes in this case) from single primary spermatocyte (diploid or 8 chromosome in this case).

Both the secondary spermatocytes undergo meiosis II to produce 4 spermatids (each haploid or 4 chromosome in this case). Spermatids differentiate and mature into spermatozoa.
