The answers would be:

Igneous Rocks - They are made from hot magma.

Sedimentary Rocks - They are made from weathered pieces of rock.

Metamorphic Rocks - They are rocks, small or large which reformed due to high temperature.

If you'd like to know more, read on:

Igneous rocks are formed when hot magma is cooled and then it hardens into a rock. The word igneous comes from the word, "ignis" which means "of fire. They can be formed beneath the Earth or on the surface.

Sedimentary rocks are formed from weathered pieces of rock. These pieces are called <u>sediments</u>. They can also be made out of other material. When these sediments settle, it continues to do so until so much sediment accumulate and they start to press down on each other. The sediments then start to go through compaction and sedimentation which for a sedimentary rock.

Metamorphic rocks form under heat and pressure. They are squeezed and shaped and go through <u>metamorphosis </u>or go through change. A metamorphic rock can be formed from any other type of rock as long as it goes through changes due to intense pressure and/or heat.

During which phase of meiosis does each of the following events occur?
lubasha [3.4K]

Answer:

(a) crossing over: Meiosis I, Recombination  

(b) chromatids separate at their centromeres and migrate to opposite poles: Meiosis II, Anaphase II

(c) chromosomes become aligned in pairs at the equator: Meiosis II, Metaphase II

Explanation:

Homologous recombination is a type of genetic recombination that occurs during meiosis (formation of ovum and sperm cells). The paired chromosomes of the male and female parents are aligned so that similar DNA sequences intersect. This crossing over produces an exchange of genetic material, which is an important cause of the genetic variability observed in the offspring.

Meiosis II: Anaphase II. The centromeres separate and the daughter chromatids - now individual chromosomes - move to the opposite poles of the cell. The centromeres separate, and the two chromatids of each chromosome move toward the opposite poles in the spindle.

Meiosis II: Metaphase II. Chromosomes are accommodated in the equatorial plate of metaphase, similar to what happens in mitosis. They are attached to the already fully formed meiotic spindle. Each chromosome is aligned in the equatorial plate of the metaphase, as it happens in mitosis.
