Answer:

Cell prepares for division

Explanation:

Prior to cell division, the cell prepares itself for the process. The phase where the cell does this is called INTERPHASE. Interphase is the longest phase of the cell cycle that occurs between two successive divisions. It encompasses three stages viz: G1 phase, S-phase and G2 phase.

In the G1 phase, the cell grows larger. It also accumulates building blocks of its molecular unit (DNA).

In the S-phase, also called the Synthesis phase, the cell replicates its DNA in the nucleus. This increases the DNA content of the cell in order for each daughter cell produced during the actual cell division to receive a correct number of DNA content. The spindle-producing centrosome is also duplicated at this stage.

In the G2 phase, the cell reorganizes its content, makes copies of its organnelles and prepares generally for division

Which of the following examples describes convergent evolution?

topjm [15]

Answer: Option E (B and D are the only examples.

Mediterranean ecosystem with hot dry summer and fire can be found on various continents across the globe. Plants in these ecosystem have evolve similar adaptations to survive these circumstances.

Echidnas are egg laying mammals that live in Australia and new Guinea. They are sometimes known as spiny anteaters since they are covered in spines and mostly eat ants and termites. As such they resemble south American anteaters and hedgehogs but are not closely related to them. Instead echidnas descended from an aquatic platypus like ancestor.

Explanation:

Divergent evolution is a process where different organisms with different anscetors evolve independently and develop similar traits due to their adaptation to similar environment.

Another example is the similarities between hummingbird and hummingbird moth, the evolved from different ancestors and yet posses similar characteristics.

Androgynous behaviors are solely the product of biological sexual differences.

xxTIMURxx [149]

Androgenous behaviors is not solely the product of biological sexual differences, such as the ability to bear children. It is also regarded as product of evolution and natural selection where an individual may be androgynous, displaying feminine and masculine characteristics or traits based on one’s gender identity and learned gender role. This can be made possible through the ongoing social interactions that individuals have with each other.

What is the main difference bwtween prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells

Ymorist [56]

Prokaryotic Cells = do not have a nucleus; generally smaller and simpler that Eukaryotic cells.

-Smaller

-does NOT have a Nucleus

-translates to ‘no Nucleus’ OR ‘no true Nucleus’

-simpler

-they don't have all of their genetic material bound in a nucleus, which is why they are simpler forms of life.

-Prokaryotic cells do have genetic information but it is just stored differently

Ex: Bacteria and Single-Celled organisms

Eukaryotic Cells = Contains a Nucleus and are usually larger and more complex than a Prokaryotic cell

-Bigger

-DOES have a Nucleus

-More Complex

-Specialized to do certain things

Ex: All the Cells in a Human’s body. Skin cells, Red Blood cells
