Mitosis simply refers to cell division in which one cell divides and produce two new cells that are identical.
Here are the steps:
(1) Prophase
<span>(a) Early prophase when cells starts to break down some structures and build others up. It sets up the stage when the chromosome is dividing.</span><span>(b) Prometaphase, mitotic spindle begins to capture and organize the chromosomes.
</span>
(2) Metaphase
<span>The spindle has captured all the chromosomes. They lined them up at the middle of the cell making it ready for division.
</span>
(3) Anaphase
<span>The sister chromatids separate from each other and are pulled towards opposite ends of the cell.
</span>
(4) Telophase
<span>The cell is nearly finished dividing, and it starts to re-establish normal internal structures as cytokinesis takes place.</span>
creation of new organisms
reproduction of new cells
When cells are damaged, they usually die. Also, they don't grow, instead, they multiply to form new tissue. Therefore, answers (1) and (3) are not correct.
Answer:
3/4
Explanation:
If we assume simple dominance and independent assortment for each trait, we can use Mendel's Law of Segregation to predict the phenotypic proportions in the offspring of the parental cross AABBCc x AabbCc.
<h3><u>Gene A</u></h3>
AA x Aa
- F1 genotypes: 1/2 AA, 1/2 Aa
- F1 phenotypes: all A
<h3 /><h3><u>Gene B</u></h3>
BB x bb
- F1 genotypes: 1 Bb
- F1 phenotypes: all B
<h3 /><h3><u>Gene C</u></h3>
Cc x Cc
- F1 genotypes: 1/4 CC, 2/4 Cc, 1/4 cc
- F1 phenotypes: 3/4 C, 1/4 cc
We want to know the proportion of progeny with all dominant phenotype (A_B_C_). Since the genes are independent, we can multiply the probabilities of each gene to obtain the overall probability of having a ABC progeny:
<h3>1 A_ x 1 B_ x 3/4 C_ = 3/4 A_B_C_</h3>
The independent variable is the new plant food
