Ans.

In humans and other higher organisms, two types of cell division, known as mitosis and meiosis takes place. Somatic cells or normal body cells of humans get divided by mitosis, while gametes are produced through meiosis.

During mitosis, a mother cell gets divided into two daughter cells and each daughter cell consists same number of chromosomes as in mother cell. In humans, 46 chromosomes are present in each cell. Thus, the skin cells, produced by mitotic division will have 46 chromosomes in their nuclei.

Answer:

The nuclei of the skin cells produced by mitosis will have identical genetic material as that of the parent cell.

It is because mitosis is a type of cell division in which a parent cell divides into two daughter cells, each having equal and identical chromosomes as that of the parent cell.

In addition, events like crossing over do not take place due to which no genetic variation is developed in the daughter cells.

The process of mitosis is mainly involved in the repair and growth of the body.

Nutrient

Explanation:

Ecology can be defined as the scientific study of the relationship between living organisms such as plants and animals in relation to their physical and biological environment.

Nutrient inputs to the system come from weathering of rocks, from windblown dust, and from precipitation, which can carry material great distances.​ Various amount of nutrients are transported or transfered from terrestrial ecosystems through erosion and then deposited in aquatic ecosystems such as oceans, seas, and associated lowlands.

Erosion can be defined as a geological process which typically involves the wearing out of earthen (soil) materials and the transportation of these materials by natural forces like water, wind, etc. Soil erosion is greatest when the soil is steep.

Weathering can be defined as the physical and chemical breakdown of rock into smaller pieces called sediment. Weathering can be classified into two categories namely;

I. Physical weathering : it is the process of breaking rocks into pieces without affecting its chemical composition e.g temperature, abrasion and frost action.

II. Chemical weathering : it is the process of breaking rocks into pieces by chemical action which leads to changes in its chemical composition e.g carbonation, hydration, plant acid and oxidation.

Pokoleniem dominującym u paprotników jest sporofit, czyli pokolenie bezpłciowe. Paprotniki są typowymi roślinami lądowymi, choć istnieją wśród nich gatunki, które wtórnie przystosowały się do wodnego trybu życia. Preferują miejsca wilgotne i zacienione. Są składnikiem różnych typów zbiorowisk roślinnych, głownie leśnych, ale też łąkowych i torfowiskowych. Są to głównie rośliny zielne, formy drzewiaste spotykamy jedynie w strefie tropikalnej. Mogą one osiągać nawet 7m wysokości. Należą do organowców, ponieważ można u nich wyróżnić organy zaopatrzone w wiązkę przewodzącą. Tymi organami są korzeń, łodyga i liście. Przystosowanie do lądowego trybu życia przejawia się w obecności takich tkanek jak epiderma, czyli skórka, tkanki przewodzącej, miękiszowej oraz wzmacniającej.

Pokoleniem dominującym u paproci jest sporofit. Pokolenie bezpłciowe rozmnaża się za pośrednictwem zarodników, czyli spor. Powstają one w zarodniach, zwanych inaczej sporangiami. Spory powstają z komórek macierzystych spor, w wyniku mejozy, są, więc haploidalne. Zarodnie często tworzą skupiska zwane kupkami, lub sorusami. Zarodnik kiełkuje w gametofit, zwany też przedroślem. W przemianie pokoleń paproci, gametofit jest pokoleniem ustępującym. Jest to najczęściej drobna, plechowata roślinka. Pozbawiona jest tkanki przewodzącej oraz korzeni. Do podłoża przytwierdza się za pomocą chwytników, zwanych, ryzoidami. Przedrośle ma najczęściej sercowaty kształt. Po jego spodniej stronie znajdują się rodnie, czyli archegonia, produkujące komórki jajowe oraz plemnie, czyli anterydia, produkujące plemniki. Plemniki zaopatrzone są w wici. Do procesu zapłodnienia niezbędna jest obecność wody. Plemniki przepływają w kierunku szyjki rodni i dokonują zapłodnienia. W wyniku zapłodnienia powstaje diploidalna zygota. Z zygoty, dzięki podziałom mitotycznym rozwija się sporofit. Początkowo jest on uzależniony od gametofitu, ale jak tylko wykształci pierwsze liście i zacznie przeprowadzać fotosyntezę usamodzielnia się. Przedrośle zaś obumiera.
