<span> Mitosis involves Prophase, Metaphase, Anaphase, and Telophase. 

So you have 
13 + 12 + 3 + 2 = 30 cells in mitosis 
and 
90 + 30 = 120 cells in total 

Therefore your ratio of cells in mitosis to total cells is 30 / 120 = 1 / 4. That means mitosis should take up roughly 1/4 of the total cell cycle length. Since the completely cycle takes 24 hours, mitosis would then take (1/4)*24 = 6 hours</span>

In pea plants, tall (T) plants are dominant over short (t) plants. If a heterozygous (Tt) pea plant is crossed with a homozygous
Musya8 [376]
The fact that each plant gets only one allele from each parent plant is detailed in the law of law of segregation. Mendel found that each pair of alleles segregates independently of the other pairs of alleles during gamete formation. When sperm and egg unite at fertilization, each contributes its allele, restoring the paired condition in the offspring. The allele pairs separate or segregate during gamete formation, and randomly unite at fertilization.

Explain why you think the current model of the atom will or will not change over time ?
KiRa [710]

I think it will change, because over the years they have found different ways to show the atom, and different discoveries. We always have a new chance to discover something new about the atom.
