Answer:
Homologous pairs of chromosomes are lined up independently of other such pairs during <u>metaphase I.</u>
Explanation:
Meiosis is a special type of nuclear division that occurs only in organisms with sexual reproduction. The meyotic division gives rise to gametes.
The division begins just after the chromosome DNA has replicated in the S phase. Each chromosome is made up of two identical sister chromatids joined by their centromere. However, chromosomes are not kept separate in the nucleus, but instead bind to their homologous partners. This union called synapse, occurs during prophase I.
In metaphase I, the pairs of chromosomes are aligned in the spindle Ecuador, that is, during this stage, the homologous pairs are aligned in the metaphase plate (which is the equatorial plane of the achromatic spindle) for separation.
During anaphase I, the members are directed to the opposite poles of the cell. Telophase I, this phase begins with the arrival of chromosomes at the poles and with the formation of a nuclear envelope around each group of chromosomes. During Profase II, the nuclear membrane (if formed during Telophase I) dissolves, and spindle fibers appear.
The first meyotic metaphase and anaphase is usually completed in a short time to give rise to the phases of the second division (metaphase II and anaphase II) , which is a mitosis during which the centromeres divide and the chromatides move towards opposite poles to become gamete chromosomes. In telophase II, cytokinesis separates cells.
Replication of the DNA and cell growth occur during the S-Phase of the cell cycle.
Answer:
C and E
Explanation:
A wavelength, when drawn like this, is between two points in the exact same spot of the wave, but in different positions. Here, C is the middle when the wave is going "down" into the trough. The next point at this position is point E, giving us our answer.
A. True
"Charles Darwin is known as the father of evolution, but in fact Alfred Wallace, another British naturalist, was a co-discoverer of the theory- though Darwin got the most credit"
