Correct answer:
"<span>B- homologous chromosomes join together to form tetrads during prophase I"

</span>It is during prophase I that homologous chromosomes join together (<span>synapsis)</span> and form tetrads - four chromatids are together in the new structure of two chromosomes - and this is the reason why crossing-over occurs in this phase. It is in this tetrad that both arms of both chromosomes may crossover and matching regions exchange places. This process results in homologous chromosomes recombination leading to genetic variability.

Which of the following is NOT a reactant of photosynthesis?
Irina-Kira [14]

In what type of asexual reproduction are seeds produced even without the joining of sperm and eggs?
dem82 [27]
This type of asexual reproduction is called apomixis. 
Apoximis is reproduction by special generative tissues without fertilization. It includes parthenogenesis in animals, in which the new individuals develop from unfertilized egg, and apogamy in certain plants in which the generative tissues may be the sporophyte or the gametophyte.

Think about challenges related to marine science which are currently facing society. In coastal and inland communities alike, th
Alex_Xolod [135]

Global challenges related to marine science are as follows:

1. Ocean acidification is a major issue that affects all of the world's ocean industries and has severe negative effects on the environment, society, and the economy. Coordinated government action is required to effectively address this issue.

<h3>What is impact of ocean acidification?</h3>

Ocean acidification will affect the biological, biogeochemical, and ecological aspects of the oceans, and while the effects on the environment, the socio-ecological system, and human dimensions are all still not fully understood, they have the potential to have very dramatic effects. Numerous marine ecosystem services and goods may be impacted directly or indirectly. Industries that rely on these services from the Ocean are impacted.

2. Overfishing:

Overfishing poses a severe threat to the fish in our water, whether it's for the food industry or the aquarium sector. The Food and Agriculture Organization estimates that more than half of the species of marine fish have been totally or overexploited, despite the fact that many of them simply need to remain in the sea because they are not necessary for food security or because they cannot survive in captivity. We are killing entire ecosystems and the food chains that are necessary to keep them healthy by overfishing. Overfishing not only causes the extinction of entire species, but it also directly affects other species in the food chain.

3. Plastic

Between 1.15 and 2.41 million tons of plastic enter the ocean every single year. The Great Pacific Garbage Patch, which is a collection of rubbish in the Pacific Ocean is now three times the size of France. Animals can get tangled in the huge amount of plastic which litter the ocean, and the plastic smothers and destroys coral and sponges. Plastic bags are also often mistaken for food by sea turtles, and they either become trapped or eat the bag which clogs their digestive system. Plastic continuously breaks down resulting in little pieces of “micro-plastic” that are consumed by a variety of marine life, including several species that humans like to catch and eat.

solutions that account for societal needs and wants:

1. Cutting back on carbon emissions.

2. Reducing plastic usage.

3. Making sure the fish you consume is supplied sustainably and ethically.

4. Participating in beach cleanups.

5. Only purchase aquarium fish that were raised in captivity.

6. Supporting elected officials that favor a wholesome atmosphere

7. Contributing to environmental organizations that protect our oceans.
