Answer:

We can predict or comment about reactivity of elements by taking into consideration their electronic configuration that imparts stability or un-stability to an atom.

Explanation:

Reactivity : It refers to the affinity of a substance to combine with other substance .

Elements are mainly of two types :

  • Metals and Non metals

In terms of metals or non metals it can be defined as tendency to loose or gain electrons .

  • On the basis of it ,we can easily make out or comment about the reactivity of element (metal or non metal ) .Like ,if an element has completely filled outermost shell or we can say have stable electronic configuration then it is already stable .Therefore , it won't react with any other element .
  • But, if its outer shell isn't complete then in order to attain stability it will combine or react with other .Hence , we can say it will be quite reactive .

Each orientation of chromosomes produces gametes with the same genetic information from each parent.
oksano4ka [1.4K]

Answer: a) true

Explanation:

The goal of mitosis is to produce daughter cells that are genetically identical to the mother cell, without a single extra or missing chromosome. Meiosis, on the other hand, is only used for one purpose in the human body: the production of gametes or sex cells, i.e. sperm and eggs. The question is oriented to mitosis, <u>in which prior to this cell division, the cell duplicates its DNA</u> so that each daughter cell then inherits the genetic material. That is, the cell originally possesses 23 chromosomes, they duplicate to a total of 46 so that then each daughter cell receives 23.

The metaphase is the second phase of mitosis and meiosis that occurs after prophase where the envelope is lost and microtubules of the achromatic spindle (also called meiotic or mitotic) appear.

During metaphase, the chromosomes align themselves in the middle of the cell and this balanced midline spindle alignment is due to the equal and opposing forces generated by the kinetochore brothers.

Then during metaphase, the chromosomes will line up in the center of the cell to be separated and go each to a different daughter cell. But the moment they're found there, each orientation of chromosomes produces gametes with the same genetic information from each parent. <u>Because because there have been no changes or mutations in the chromosomes, they have duplicated and have the same genetic information.</u>
