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.

Answer:

Using those measurements, the equatorial circumference of Earth is about 24,901 miles (40,075 km). However, from pole-to-pole — the meridional circumference — Earth is only 24,860 miles (40,008 km) around. This shape, caused by the flattening at the poles, is called an oblate spheroid

Answer:

A. The temperatures are too high.

Explanation:

A desert is a region with extremes of temperatures and little to no rainfall.

Organic matter are the remains of organisms that have died. They are a very important component of soils.

Where temperatures are very extreme, there would be little to no life. Only special organisms that have evolved to adapt will survive such region.

Due to the low amount of plant and animal lives owing from the high temperature of deserts, little to no organic matter forms.
