Answer:

Crossing-over

Explanation:

Meiosis is a kind of cell division that occurs only in sexually-reproducing organisms. It is the process by which they produce gametes. Meiosis is that division in which the number of chromosomes in the resulting cells are reduced by half. Due to this reason, meiosis occurs in a two step division process viz: Meiosis I and II.

Meiosis produces genetically different reproductive cells. This is as a result of a phenomenon unique to only meiosis called CROSSING-OVER. Crossing-over is a process whereby non-sister chromatids of homologous chromosomes exchange a segment of their genetic material. It occurs only in Prophase 1 of meiosis where the TETRAD structure is formed. This exchange of genetic material causes a recombination of DNA in the resulting cell (gamete).

Crossing-over only occurs between non-sister chromatids of homologous chromosomes, hence, it can only occur in Prophase 1. Prophase II involves sister chromatids.

In eukaryotic gene regulation, RNA interference occurs through:
Anit [1.1K]

Answer:

B. the action of microRNAs that block translation of specific mRNA molecule

C. the action of RNA–protein complexes that degrade the regulatory proteins responsible for initiating transcription.

Explanation:

RNA interference occurs what RNA prevent the translation of some gene this is done by neutralizing target mRNA molecule. It suppresses the effects of some desires genes through its action.

MicroRNA and small interfering RNA (miRNA and siRNA) are the major RNA that controls interference. siRNA and miRNA prevent translation by directing some enzmes complexes to denature the mRNA molecule needed for translation. They intiate post transcriptional splicing.

RNA interference is found in eukaryote and some animals and its initiated by enzyme Dicer that inhibits translation by degrading the enzymes action.

What are the ATP CHaracteristics?
zimovet [89]

Answer:

hmmmm MARK ME BRAINLIST

Explanation I think Characteristics of ATP. Adenosine triphosphate (ATP) is an essential aspect to life, as it is the basic source of energy for all known living cells. ATP serves a dual function: it is individually a source of energy, as well as being involved in processes that release more energy when it is broken down to form adenosine diphosphate (ADP).

How are mammalian sperm cells produced and incubated at a lower temperature than boday temperature ?
Morgarella [4.7K]

Answer:by being produced in the testes outside the body

Explanation: spermatogenesis is the production of male gamates,the sperm.this process occurs in the seminiferous tubules in the testes.epithelial cells produces the primary spermatocyte which divides to give a secondary spermatocyte.

The secondary spermatocyte divides to form spermatids,which differentiates to form the spermatozoons.

Testis is housed in the scrotal sac.

Sperm production is sensitive to temperature. Too high temperature can cause formation of abnormal cells . As a result the scrotal sac is located outside the body
