What is the purpose of meiosis? How does the cell do the following: reduce the chromosome number in half and create genetically

different cells?

Answer:

2 cells meet and the number of chromosomes becomes equivalent to the somatic cell.

Explanation:

In meiosis crossing over occurs and the number of chromosomes divided or remain half as compared to a somatic cell which is called Haploid (n). When two haploid cell meets than diploid (2n) cell formed which further transforms into a zygote. So, the purpose of meiosis is the cross over which creates genetic variation among individuals and reduced the number of chromosomes into the half. Because if the number of chromosomes remains the same as (2n) and (2n) meets and becomes 4n. Which is the wrong pattern so nature keeps this balance in a unique manner that (n) and (n) meets and form (2n).

Why does the kinetic energy change? Is it the<br> mass or the speed that causes the change?
gogolik [260]

Answer:

Both speed and mass causes the kinetic energy to change.

Explanation:

The energy an object  because of its motion is called as Kinetic energy. A object that moves be it horizontal or vertical direction possess kinetic energy. Some forms of kinetic energy are rotational, vibrational, translational. The kinetic energy(K) of the object depends on two components i.e., the mass (m) of the object involved and its speed(v)

The relation between the mass, speed of the object can be represented as

 \text{Kinetic energy}=\frac{1}{2}$ mass $\times$velocity$^{2}$

 Kinetic energy$=\frac{1}{2} m \times v^{2}$

Thus when there is a increase in the mass and speed, the kinetic energy will also increase
