Alright, so we know that mitosis contains <span>prophase, metaphase, anaphase, and telophase. You can add all the cells in these 4 phases together. 

</span>13 cells in prophase, 12 cells in metaphase, 3 cells in anaphase, and 2 cells in telophase.
<span>
13+12+3+2= 30 cells 
So, 30 cells are in mitosis, but don't forget to add the 30 to the already 90 in interphase to find out how many cells there are in all.

30+90=120 cells in all

After this, you just need to divide 30/120 to get simplified 1/4. This means that mitosis takes up 1/4 of the total cell cycle. <em>If you want to find this in hours, just multiply 1/4 by 24 (hours in a day) to get 6. </em>

Which energy pyramid cannot be inverted? a. pyramid of numbers b. pyramid of biomass c. pyramid of energy d.all can be inverted
Blababa [14]

The correct option is C.

The pyramid of numbers and the pyramid of biomass can be inverted but the pyramid of energy can not be treated in the same way. The pyramid of energy is a graphical representation of the flow of energy in the ecosystem. The ultimate source of energy in the ecosystem is the sun. The plants, which are called the producers use the energy of the sun to produce their own foods. It is the energy that the primary consumers obtained from the producers that will be pass on to others in the ecosystem. Thus, the value of the energy reduce gradually as it is passed from one level to another.
