A cell under a microscope shows Two daughter cells were formed and they are haploid. Which stage of meiosis is the cell showing?
Nadya [2.5K]

The answer is <span>Meiosis I.</span>



<span>Meiosis is a cell division which results in the reduction of chromosome number by half - from diploid to haploid - in daughter cells. It consists of meiosis I and meiosis II. Meiosis I produces two haploid cells. Meiosis II is analogous to mitosis, so each of these two haploid cells will in meiosis II produce two haploid cells. In total, meiosis results in four haploid cells.</span>

<span>
</span>

<span>Therefore, the production of two haploid daughter cells is in meiosis I.</span>

belka [17]

Answer: The hepatic portal vein is one of the most important vein that receives blood from the body and transports it into the liver for filtration and processing. This vein is part of the hepatic portal system that receives all of the blood draining from the abdominal digestive tract, as well as from the pancreas, gallbladder, and spleen.

‘Hepatic’ means of or relating to the liver, therefore the hepatic portal vein is a blood vessel that sends nutrient-rich blood from the gastrointestinal tract and spleen to the liver, but also delivers toxins to the liver that will be chemically modified in the proces of detoxication
