The paramecium has two nuclei, a big and small one. The big one operates as the director of the cell's activities, rather like a little brain. The smaller one is used for reproduction. The paramecium splits in half (fission) just as the ameba does. First the smaller nucleus splits in half and each half goes to either end of the paramecium. Then the bigger nucleus splits and the whole paramecium splits. Occasionally two paramecium exchange material and form a new paramecium. This is called conjugation. 

<span>Conjugation in Paramecia occurs in the following way: </span>

<span>a). The formation of ciliary contacts. </span>
<span>b). Local loss of cilia and formation of narrow contacts between anterioventral somatic cell membranes </span>
<span>c). Formation of small cytoplasmic bridges (which allow for the exchange of molecular components only). </span>
<span>d). Their enlargement enables the cells to exchange micronuclei. </span>

<span>Bacteria exchange plasmid material and the Paramecia exchange micronuclei.

Good luck to Steve! How is it in Neptune? XD</span>

If someone could help explain how to solve this
Mnenie [13.5K]

Answer:

200 meters

Explanation:

A kilometer is 1,000 meter. 0.2 x 1,000 is 200 meters.

You can also think of it this way, 0.2 is 1/5. We need to find 1/5 of a kilometer. We know the conversion is 1,000 meters/kilometer. 1,000/5 is 200. Therefore you must walk 200 meters to hatch the egg.

mario62 [17]

Answer:

Compare and Contrast the relationships between the speed of electromagnetic  and mechanical waves as they travel through different mediums is explained below in details.

Explanation:

As per the mechanism, the waves can be distinguished as electromagnetic and mechanical waves. Electromagnetic waves are those fluctuations that have no mechanism to progress whereas mechanical waves demand a mechanism for their communication. Electromagnetic waves progress in a vacuum whereas mechanical waves don't have.

Suppose you have one plant with the genotype TTPpYy, and another plant that is recessive for all three traits. If you were to cr
musickatia [10]

Answer:

16/64 = 1/4

Explanation:

This is a typical trihybrid cross involving three genes T, P and Y. A plant with genotype TTPpYy is crossed with a plant recessive for all traits (ttppyy).

According to Mendel's law of independent assortment, each allele for each gene will get sorted into the following 8 gametes with only 4 different: TPY, TPy, TpY, Tpy, TPY, TPy, TpY and Tpy.

The recessive parent, ttppyy will produce tpy, tpy, tpy, tpy, tpy, tpy, tpy and tpy.

Hence, using a punnet square, 64 offsprings will be produced with only 16 of them heterozygous dominant for the three traits with genotype (TtPpYy). Hence, proportion is 16/64 equivalent to 1/4.
