Answer:D. Mitosis produces genetically identical daughter cells

Correct answer is D

Below are the choices to choose from for an answer:

A. Meiosis is a multi-step process.

B. Mitosis occurs only in eukaryotic cells.

C. Meiosis is used in the repair of an organism.

D. Mitosis produces genetically identical daughter cells

Explanation:

A. Both meiosis and mitosis are multi -step processes.

B. Mitosis also takes place in prokaryotic cells.

C. Meiosis generates gametes used in sexual reproduction.

D. (correct): Cells produced through mitosis contain DNA identical to the parent cells, whereas those produced in meiosis produces cells that are are unidentical.

Mitosis and meiosis are both processes which describe the production of new cells. Mitosis is responsible for producing 2produces 2genetically identical daughter cells . Meiosis on the other side produces 4 unidentical daughter cells, they are different from each other and the parents and they have half number of chromosomes (haploid)

Meiosis produce variations in daughter cells whereas mitosis produce identical nuclei.

Hope this helps!

Gnom [1K]

The provided question was incomplete as it lacks the options. However, the correct option for this question is as follows:

an electronic balance to measure the volume of soil in which each corn plant is grown

a graduated cylinder to measure 30 mL of water for each plant daily

a metric ruler to determine the mass of each plant each week

a Celsius thermometer to determine the pH of the soil

Answer:

The correct answer is - a graduated cylinder to measure 30 mL of water for each plant daily

Explanation:

The basic knowledge requires to answer this question, as it is not asking about the photosynthesis or temperature of the air but the tool which is correctly matched, so let's get the answer from the options:

the first option is talking about the electric balance and measuring the volume of soil with it, as wee know electric balance measures mass or force on the pan downwards which is the mass of the substance. so it is an incorrect match.

Graduated cylinder to measure the 30 ml water which is correct as this tool measure volume of liquid or substance.

A metric scale measures distance or length of an object, not the mass thus, it is an incorrect match.

A thermometer measures the temperature, not the pH of a substance so it is also an incorrect match.

ELEN [110]
The cell membrane is a biological membrane that separates the interior of all cells from the outside environment. It consists of a lipid bilayer with embedded proteins. The basic function of the cell membrane is to protect the cell from its surroundings. The cell membrane controls the movement of substances in and out of cells and organelles. In this way, it is selectively permeable to ions and organic molecules. In addition, cell membranes are involved in a variety of cellular processes such as cell adhesion, ion conductivity and cell signalling and serve as the attachment surface for several extracellular structures, including the cell wall, the carbohydrate layer called the glycocalyx, and the intracellular network of protein fibers called the cytoskeleton. In the field of synthetic biology, cell membranes can be artificially reassembled.

Draw a phylogenetic tree demonstrating the evolution of the multi-chambered heart in fish, amphibians, reptiles, mammals, and bi
RSB [31]
<h2>Multi-Chambered Heart </h2>

Explanation:

  • The four-chambered in warm blooded mammals like frog's have three chambered of heart.
  • Other warm-blooded creatures, consume a great deal of vitality and need a lot of oxygen.This change bears the turtle's body blood that is somewhat more extravagant in oxygen than the frog's.  

Advantages of fish-  

  • The heart doesn't require extra chambers past the initial two.
  • Fish and different creatures with 2-chambered hearts, along these lines, have less difficult circulatory frameworks than creatures with lungs and therefore, 3-and 4-chambered hearts.  

Advantages of Amphibians-

  • The amphibians have a three chambered of the heart which to be very helpful to  amphibians of land and water.

Advantages of Reptiles-  

  • The  reptiles have a three-chambered heart comprising of one ventricle and two atria.
  • The chamber called the correct chamber gets d<em>eoxygenated, or "spent," blood coming back from the body tissues.  </em>

Advantages of Mammals-

  • The four-chambered heart of feathered mammals and well evolved creatures advanced freely from a three-chambered heart.  

Advantages of Birds -

  • Birds like mammals , similar to vertebrates, have a 4-chambered heart (2 atria and 2 ventricles), with complete division of oxygenated and de-oxygenated blood.
  • The correct ventricle siphons blood to the lungs, while the left ventricle siphons blood to the remainder of the body.
