1. After mitosis in animals, cytokinesis takes place. What happens during cytokinesis?
il63 [147K]
The correct answers are as follows:
1. During cytokinesis, THE CELL MEMBRANE PINCHES IN TO FORM TWO NEW CELLS.
Cytokinesis is the physical process of cell division, it divides the cytoplasmic content of the parental cell into two new daughter cells. Cytokinesis takes place in both mitosis and meosis.
2. The correct order of the phases of mitosis are as follows: PROPHASE, METAPHASE, ANAPHASE AND TELOPHASE.
Mitosis is the process of cell division by which a cell is divided into two new cells. The process occurs in four basic stages and result in the formation of two new cells.
3. The following terms are related to sexual reproduction: MATING SYSTEM, GAMETE FORMATION AND AMPLEXUS.
Amplexus refers to the mating positions of frogs and toads during sexual reproduction. Mating system refers to the number of mating partners that an animal has during the mating period. Gamete formation is the process by which sex cells are made and it occurs in both male and female animals.
4. As a cell is preparing to divide by mitosis, the DNA MUST BE COPIED.
When a cell is getting ready to divide by mitosis, it will undergo a stage called interphase, during which the cell prepare for cell division. During interphase, the cell undergo some process and these include the copying of the DNA. The cell copies its DNA so that it has two copies of each strand.

Innate immunity
krek1111 [17]

Answer:

3. is activated immediately upon infection.

Explanation:

Innate immunity is the nonspecific immunity. These immune defenses are present at birth and do not involve specific recognition of a microbe. Being nonspecific in nature, it acts against all microbes.  Innate immunity includes the first and second lines of defense.

Some of the examples of components of innate immunity among the first line of defenses are physical and chemical barriers of the skin and mucous membranes. Innate immune responses are the immunity’s early warning system that is generated immediately after the encounter with a pathogen to prevent them from entering the body and to help eliminate the ones that have entered the body.

Once a microbe has entered the body, secretion of antimicrobial substances and activities of natural killer cells, phagocytes, the process of inflammation, etc. serve to eliminate it from the body. All these responses are the components of innate immunity.

Some bacterial cells live in very cold environments (such as the arctic ocean), but they still require membrane fluidity like th
Dima020 [189]

Answer and explanation;

-Arctic microbes would have membranes with more unsaturated fatty acids; increasing the unsaturated fatty acid ratio would make it harder for the fatty acids to pack together. This will keep the membrane fluid at lower temperatures, which will benefit organisms that live in very cold climates.

-Microorganisms are adapted for optimum functioning in their normal physiological environments. Any extreme change in environmental conditions from the optimum inflicts a stress on an organism. For this reason they must accommodate a variety of changing conditions and stresses in their environment in order to survive and multiply.
