Answer:

In organisms during cell division, DNA is present in packaged structure called "chromosomes" with a constriction point called the centromere giving X-shape to the chromosomes. This forms a complete set of chromosome.The number of chromosomes present in the nucleus of the cell is known as ploidy number represented by "n".

Based on the number of chromosomes, cell is usually divided into: Haploid cell and diploid cell.

Haploid cells (n): are the cells with only one complete set or chromosomes like gamete cells while

Diploid cells (2n): are the cells with 2 sets or pair of chromosomes like somatic cells.

VladimirAG [237]

Answer: Movement along fault line

Explanation:

Here's the remainder of the question:

Which map best predicts the likely movement of land along the fault line over thousands of years?

A transform fault is simply refered to a as a fault that occurs along the plate boundary such that the motion in such case is horizontal and ends when there's a connection with another plate boundary.

Based on the question, the map that best predicts the likely movement of land along the fault line over thousands of years will be a movement along fault line.

Rna in cells differs from dna in that ___________________. select one:
irinina [24]
Hello! 

RNA in cells differs from DNA in that it is single-stranded and can fold up into a variety of structures.

RNA is the abbreviation for RiboNucleic Acid. It is a biological molecule that fulfills an important role by copying the information stored in the DNA (DeoxyriboNucleic Acid) and transporting it to the different proteins by folding into different shapes. Its name come from a Ribose molecule that is present in this single-stranded molecule.  

Viruses don't have DNA, only RNA. They only replicate in the host's cells by copying their own RNA information. 

Have a nice day!

IceJOKER [234]

Answer:

This is an example of gene translation.

Explanation:

Gene translation refers to the genetic process where a set of genes is used to create amino acids that will be responsible for creating a protein needed to perform some function or characteristic of the organism. In the question above, we can see that anthocyanin, responsible for the pigment of flowers, is created through the work of proteins that are created from gebes C and P. This is an example of gene translation, as it presents the formation of proteins regulated by genes.
