Actively dividing eukaryote cells pass through a series of stages known collectively as the cell cycle: two gap phases (G1 and G2); an S (for synthesis) phase, in which the genetic material is duplicated; and an M phase, in which mitosis partitions the genetic material and the cell divides.

 

<span><span>G1 phase. Metabolic changes prepare the cell for division. At a certain point - the restriction point - the cell is committed to division and moves into the S phase.</span><span>S phase. DNA synthesis replicates the genetic material. Each chromosome now consists of two sister chromatids.</span><span>G2 phase. Metabolic changes assemble the cytoplasmic materials necessary for mitosis and cytokinesis.</span><span>M phase. A nuclear division (mitosis) followed by a cell division (cytokinesis).</span></span>

The period between mitotic divisions - that is, G1, S and G2 - is known as interphase.

<span>Mitosis is a form of eukaryotic cell division that produces two daughter cells with the same genetic component as the parent cell. Chromosomes replicated during the S phase are divided in such a way as to ensure that each daughter cell receives a copy of every chromosome. In actively dividing animal cells, the whole process takes about one hour.</span>

Populations that exhibit logistic growth still exhibit exponential growth. This statement is:
adoni [48]

Answer: Option B (True)

Explanation: The statement can only occur in different populations of the same organism. The two growth strategies happens in different modes.

Firstly, logistic growth occurs when the resources available in the habitat (i.e organism’s niche) are limited to satisfy the whole population and this allows the organisms of the same species to grow rapidly until it reaches the point the resources can circulate, the carrying capacity.

While exponential growth occurs when there's abundance of resources for the population and allows growth of population beyond the carrying capacity, which results to overshoot of population in later stage of growth.

Secondly, in logistic growth population rarely crash but in exponential growth, population crashes due to mortality (often by predation, disease outbreak and etc) when there's overshoot of population beyond the carrying capacity.

Note: Population refers to the total number of organisms of the same species inhabiting a geographical area at a particular time.

​the production of sterile mules by interbreeding between female horses (mares) and male donkeys (jacks) is an example of
insens350 [35]

Answer:

reduced hybrid fertility

Explanation

The formation of mules  from the cross between female horses (mares) and male donkeys (jacks) is an example of reduced fertility because the mules are sterile and they cannot give birth to babies.

Reason:

Because mule cannot produce sperms. This has to do with his genetics. A mule has 63 chromosomes in total. He gets 32 chromosomes from his mom (that is a horse) and 31 chromosomes from his Dad (that is a donkey). As we know, it is very important for reproduction that chromosomes hould be present in two sets with equal numbers.

To reproduce he needs equal number of chromosomes because we know during meiosis chromosomes segregate and half number goes in daughter cells. But in case of mules he has an extra chromosome due to which he cannot undergo correct meiosis and produce sperms. That is ahy he stays sterile throughout his life. This is called reduced hybrid fertility

Hope it helps!
