During inspiration thoracic cavity volume increases. a. True b. False

Biology
1 answer:
BartSMP [9]3 years ago
8 0

True

Explanation:

Inspiration is the process of inhaling air from the nose that reaches the lungs through respiratory tract. Expiration is the release of air from the lungs to the outside environment through the nose.

During inspiration, the ribs move up and out, diaphragm moves up or inferiorly, the external intercoastals contract and the thoracic cavity increases in volume for the air to come in. During expiration, the opposite of inspiration occurs. Both inspiration and expiration are related.

What are the phases of meiosis where crossing over occur
ehidna [41]

Answer:

Prophase 1

Explanation:

Prophase I :It can be divided into five stages:

1)Leplotene: In this stage, chromosome becomes visible and shorten as a single structure.

2)Zygotene: Homologous / sister chromosome pair up. This process is known as synapse. Synapse is the process of attachment of homologous /sister chromosome. One pair comes from the male parent while the other comes from the female parent.

3)Pachytene: Bivalents shorten.

4)Diplotene:Point of attachment of non-sister chromatids. The two chromosomes are seen to be joined at several points along their length. These points are known as Chiasmata.(Chiasmata, a cross). The paternal gene A, B, C may swap for the maternal gene a, b, c for instance, leading to a new gene combination in the resulting chromatids. This is referred to as *CROSSING OVER*.

5)Diakenesis: Homologous centromere move apart.

So, crossing over occurs in *Prophase 1.
