This is because daughter cells are identical to the original cell.
Although during the process of mitosis the number of chromosomes changes, the final number of chromosomes in each daughter cell is always the same number as were in the original cell.
Answer:
The correct match for the terms with their description is given below:
Explanation:
- Gene: f) A sequence of nucleotides in DNA that codes for a functional product such as a protein.
- Nucleotide: d) The building blocks of nucleic acids, includes a phosphate, sugar and organic base.
- Chromosome: e) The structure that carries the DNA sequences
- Frameshift mutation a) The loss or addition of a nucleotide pair in a DNA strand.
- Point mutation: c) The substitution of one nucleotide pair for another in DNA strand.
- Genotype: g) The entire genetic makeup of an organism
- Phenotype: b) The physical and biochemical expression of the genotype.
Answer:
Complementary base pairing is the phenomenon where in DNA guanine always hydrogen bonds to cytosine and adenine always binds to thymine. The bond between guanine and cytosine shares three hydrogen bonds compared to the A-T bond which always shares two hydrogen bonds.
Random changes in allele frequency in a population are usually called genetic drift. The reason why this is the answer is because it is a very specific word which is used to describe exactly that - random changes in allele frequency.
All the other cases; answers, here aren't correct and don't apply.
The answer would be both!
