Answer:
Explanation:
Meiosis is a form of cell division that occurs in the sex cells of organisms. It ensures the reduction of a diploid cell to an haploid cell to allow for the formation of a diploid zygote after fertilization (contribution of both parents haploid sex cells to give a diploid zygote). Thus, this process is very essential and important.
The reduction is accomplished by 2 divisions after the duplication of chromosomes
- first division: separation of homologous pairs of chromosomes (this reduces the total in half)
- second division: separation of sister chromatids of a chromosome.
The rearrangement in meiosis occurs by crossing over/genetic recombination.
This is the exchange of genetic material between homologous pairs of chromosome bringing about a rearrangement and genetic variation
An example of a chromosomal abnormality that arises as a result of defects in this process is the Down Syndrome which is caused by a nondisjunction of the chromosomes 21 pair in a sex cell.
This condition produces offsprings that have some characteristic facial features, short stature etc
180. There are 360 degrees of both, so longitude would just be 180
Answer:
The statement is false
Explanation:
This type of virus is characterized by the presence of only one DNA strand. For this virus, the mechanism of infection is only effective against vegetal cells. After the introduction of the viral DNA inside of the host cytosol. The present proteins auxiliate synthesize the virus DNA and the antisense strand; transforming the single-stranded DNA into double-stranded DNA. In this way, the virus DNA is read by the transcription mechanism of the host, resulting in new virus proteins.
Since it follows the normal gene transcription: it not goes against the normal rule. Consequently, the statement is false.
