Answer:

The statement that compares mitosis and meiosis in relation to the transfer of genetic material is that mitosis divides into two cells with the same genetic material, whereas meiosis divides into four cells with half the genetic material.

Explanation:

Mitosis is the cell division into which a mother cell divides and gives rise to two identical daughter cells. It is a kind of cloning, so the daughter cells have the same number of chromosomes and the same genetic code. Mitosis is composed of the following phases: prophase, metaphase, anaphase and telophase. In meiosis, the mother cell divides into four daughter cells with half of its genetic material and chromosome numbers. Meiosis is composed of meiosis I (prophase I, metaphase I, anaphase I and telophase I) and meiosis II (prophase II, metaphase II, anaphase II and telophase II).

Mitosis is an equational division, as each mother cell produces two genetically identical daughter cells, and meiosis is a reductive division, as each mother cell produces four daughter cells with half the number of chromosomes and genetic material.

Mitosis and meiosis are simply cell division processes that occurs differently, they're characteristically divergent from each other according to their function and structure. Mitosis is the cell division that happens in all cells in the human body except sperm and egg cells. They produce diploid cells. Meiosis on the other hand is responsible for the cell division of the gametes, spermatogenesis (sperm cells) and oogenesis (egg cells), such haploid cells. i hope that this helps you out, have an amazing day

Living organisms are only able to function and thrive if they can maintain constant or stable internal conditions. This ability
Hatshy [7]
The ability of organisms to regulate and thus maintain a relatively stable internal environment, despite external pressures, is called HOMEOSTASIS. This word comes from two Latin/Greek root words: "homeo" and "stasis".
"Homeo" means constant or unchanging. And "stasis" or "static" refers to stillness, non-movement. So, together, we can translate Homeostasis into a constant stillness inside, which makes sense for "maintaining normal internal states."

Dean is a crime scene photographer. In which order should he photograph the crime scene?
Artemon [7]
There is no prescribed length of time it takes to photographically document a crime scene. The amount of time spent depends on the size and complication in the crime scene, how much there is to document and environmental factors like weather or danger to the investigative team. It can consist of thousands of photographs and hours of work.
Crime scene photography should not just focus on the obvious. The purpose of crime scene photography is to document what is there and where it is in relationship to the scene, whether it is obviously connected to the crime or not. For example, a photographer in Florida shot the inside of every cabinet and the refrigerator at a homicide scene in a home, just as a matter of procedure. It was later discovered that the victim had a receipt for a six-pack of beer, matching the beer shown in the photograph of the refrigerator. Relatives noted that the victim did not drink beer. Further investigation led the team to the convenience store where the beer was purchased and the surveillance tape showed the victim with an unknown person purchasing the beer. It turns out that the victim had picked up a hitchhiker, purchased beer for that person and come back to the house. The photograph of the refrigerator contents had created the link enabling the investigators to find the suspect.
