Answer:

The correct answer will be option-A.

Explanation:

During anaphase, the spindle microtubules help the segregation of the chromosomes from the center of the cell at the metaphase plate.

These microtubules get attached to the chromosomes at kinetochore which helps in pulling of the chromosomes to opposite poles.  The microtubules pull apart the sister chromatids when cohesin proteins degenerate.

The chromosomes do not show jiggling movement at the metaphase plate and thus, option-A is the correct answer.

In which element and a fragmented landscape would you expect to find the largest number of species
k0ka [10]

Answer:

A corridor that is attached or connected to a large patch.

Explanation:

Corridors in biology can either be within an aquatic or terrestrial environment. The movement of animals is mostly between these two corridors, or corridors within the main ones. Because corridors are very long and continuous strips of land or water with much vegetation or reefs, there are numerous amounts of species. These corridors are meant to aid movement of animals, so it is only natural that there would be a large amount of them at the end of a corridor.

My teacher always taught me the saying "(A)pples on (T)rees, (C)ars in (G)arrages, meaning that A always went with T and C always goes with G

When that applies here, 30 Red, or Adenine legos would go with 30 Thymine legos, which is the color orange

30 reds would go with 30 oranges in this case
