It is important for reproduction. Replication of a DNA is a very basic process that should happen within a cell. Each time a cell divides, the two resulting daughter cells must contain exactly the same genetic information, or DNA, as the parent cell. Hope this answers the question.

Aneli [31]

Answer:

1. Meiosis I

2. Tetrad

3. Tetrad

Explanation:

Crossing over refers to an event taking place in the cells undergoing meiosis cell division during which the exchange of material takes place. The process of crossing over takes place during pachytene of prophase I in meiosis I.

Crossing over takes place when the structure formed by the pairing of the four chromatids of the chromosomes called tetrad is formed. The formation of tetrad allows the exchange of genetic sequences, therefore, result in recombination.

The process of crossing over does not take place in the mitosis as the tetrad is not formed in the mitosis.

Thus, Meiosis I, Tetrad and tetrad are correct.

Alexandra [31]

Answer: Antibodies are proteins that are found in the body on the surface of red blood cells and in the blood plasma ,they are very sensitive to foreign bodies and bad viruses and bacteria,when they notice the presence of anything that poses harm or a threat to the body system,they track it down and fight/destroy it.

Antibodies also play crucial role in hemostasis(stoppage of bleeding) in the sense that when the body is wounded or when someone gets a cut antibodies that are found in the plasma and some substances found in the platelets are released to play a role in sending signal to the blood clotting factors in the blood to be released to arrest the bleeding and prevent the person from bleeding out their entire blood.
