Answer:

Meiosis is the process of development of gamates in sexually reproducing organisms. Both males and females use meiosis to produce their gametes. In females the process of meiosis is called oogenesis as it produces oocytes which further develops into ova (eggs)  and in males spermatogenesis takes place to produce sperms. Meiosis takes place in the germ cells of the organism. Meiosis is also known as reduction division as a diploid cell reduce to develop 4 haploid daughter cells. Prophase I is the initial phase of meiosis. This phase has six substages, therefore it requires more time to complete especially in oogenesis.   During prophase I homologous chromosomes pair exchange their DNA this process results in chromosomal crossover. The new combination of DNA in the cross over chromosomes will be a source for genetic variations with production of new combination of allele. In metaphase I homologous pair of chromosome move together along a metaphase plate , microtubules emerge from the spindle and attach at the kinetochores near the centromere of each chromosomes. Microtubule from one side of the spindle attach to one of the chromosome in the homologous pair and that of other side attaches with other chromosome of each pair. Because of microtubules chromosome pair align at the metaphase plate (equator of the cell). The random alignment of chromosome pair at the equator plate will result in different proportion of transfer of genes from maternal and paternal chromosomes. This is the law of independent assortment, hence this will result in genetic diversity in the daughter cells.

wolverine [178]

Answer:

Presence of papillary muscles

Explanation:

  • Papillary muscles are structural components of the ventricles.
  • They are attached to the cusps of the mitral and tricuspid valves through connective tissue strings known as the cordinae tendeneae (heart strings).
  • These muscles prevent the prolaspse of these valves during ventricular systole.
  • Although they differ in number i.e. two in left and three in right ventricle, papillary muscles are present in both ventricles.

Cultures of a bacterial species were incubated on the shelf of a refrigerator, out on a lab bench top, on the shelf of a 37°C in
Oksana_A [137]

Answer:

D. Psychrophile

Explanation:

Psychrophiles or cryophiles are a type of extremophiles i.e. they live in extreme environment. They grow well in low temperatures ranging from -20 to +10 degree Celsius.

Here, the bacteria was incubated at different temperatures. It did not show growth at standard incubation temperature of 37°C which indicates that it might be an extremophile preferring either very hot or very cold environment. But it also did not show growth at 50°C which means that it does not survive well at high temperature.

Lab bench top has generally colder surface compared to the surrounding environment and a little growth was observed there which indicates that this bacteria might require cold temperature for growth. The result was finally confirmed with abundant growth observed inside refrigerator which is only possible if it is a psychrophile.

The elements potassium (K) and chlorine (CI) can form an ionic bond. Which of the following
musickatia [10]

Answer:

As chlorine has 7 valence electrons, it tends to form bonds to gain one electron (to get a full valence shell of 8).On the other hand, potassium has one valence electron, so it tends to lose this electron to other atoms (and

become a cation)
