how many chromosomes are in the daughter cells of a cell that goes through meiosis, if the cell initially had 4 chromosomes.

Meiosis is a process which involves 2 times of cellular division. Each time, chromosomal volume is being halved.

If at first, cell starts with 4 chromosomes ( x x x x ), after the first division which results in 2 daughter cells, each cell will have 2 chromosomes ( x x ), since homologous chromosomes pair up in Meiosis I ( xx xx ), and each pair is broken at Anaphase I.

During Meiosis II ( x x ), sister chromatids are broken at Anaphase II. Each resulting cell will only have 2 chromosomes ( < > ).

So, if you want to check, there will be 4 daughter cells from a single cell after meiosis has occurred. Each daughter cell will have 2 chromosomes ( < > ). At first, there were 4 chromosomes in total ( x x x x ), now, there are ( < > ) ( < > ) ( < > ) ( < > ).

Each bracket ( ... ) represents a cell

Hope this helps!

How deep of a diffusion does is meet to needs of living cells?
Naily [24]

Diffusion is the net movement of anything (for example, atom, ions, molecules) from a region of higher concentration to a region of lower concentration. Diffusion is driven by a gradient in concentration.

The concept of diffusion is widely used in many fields, including physics (particle diffusion), chemistry, biology, sociology, economics, and finance (diffusion of people, ideas, and price values). The central idea of diffusion, however, is common to all of these: an object (for example, atom, idea, etc.) undergoing diffusion spreads out from a point or location at which there is a higher concentration of that object.

A gradient is the change in the value of a quantity, for example, concentration, pressure, or temperature with the change in another variable, usually distance. A change in concentration over a distance is called a concentration gradient, a change in pressure over a distance is called a pressure gradient, and a change in temperature over a distance is called a temperature gradient.

The word diffusion derives from the Latin word, diffundere, which means "to spread out."

A distinguishing feature of diffusion is that it depends on particle random walk, and results in mixing or mass transport without requiring directed bulk motion. Bulk motion, or bulk flow, is the characteristic of advection.[1] The term convection is used to describe the combination of both transport phenomena.

If a diffusion process can be described by Fick's laws, it's called a normal diffusion (or Fickian diffusion); Otherwise, it's called an anomalous diffusion (or non-Fickian diffusion).

7.Diane has type A blood and Darryl has type B. They have a son Duane with type A blood and a daughter, Dora, with type B blood.
marishachu [46]

Answer:

A - 1/4

B - 1/2

C- 1/8

Explanation:

The complete question is

Diane has type A blood and Darryl has type B.  They have a son Duane with type A blood and a daughter, Dora, with type B blood.  If they have another child, what are the chances that it  

         A. Will have type AB blood?  

         B. Will be a girl?  

         C. Will be a boy with type O blood?

A.

Let the genotype of Diane be  AO

Daryl can have genotype BO

AO  * BO

AB, AO, BO, OO

Probability of having AB blood group is 1/4

B.

1/2

C

1/2 * 1/4 = 1/8

What are the factors that help to determine the climate of a biome
fredd [130]

They are all part of climate, the statistical summary of temperature, humidity, atmospheric pressure, wind, rainfall, other meteorological measurements in a given region over long periods. In other words, is it dry or wet, hot or cold, or humid? And it is these abiotic factors that help determine the nature of a biome.
