Which blood vessels permit the exchange of oxygen, carbon dioxide, nutrients, and waste products with body cells?
Greeley [361]

Answer: Capillaries

Explanation: Blood vessels have the same basic structures used to circulate blood of different composition to and away from the heart to the body. Blood vessels are arteries, veins and capillaries. Arteries carry oxygenated blood from the heart to the body and veins carry deoxygenated blood from the tissues to the heart.

Capillaries are the ones that work with body cells for exchange.They collect nutrients and oxygen from the blood to the cell and also collect carbon dioxide and waste from the cell to the blood which is transported to the vein where it travels via the venous system and goes through the heart, then to the lungs for gaseous exchange.

Therefore the enswer is, capillaries.

Why is it important for the chromosomes to condense during mitosis?
likoan [24]

<u>Answer</u>:

It is important for the chromosomes to condense during mitosis to facilitate chromosome movement.

<u>Explanation</u>:

The chemical called colchicine is found to be used during the process of mitosis, so as to freeze the cells, which can stop or prevent the movement of the chromosomes. This process is also essential for the faithful genome replication or transmission to those daughter cells. During the interphase cell division occurs but during the prophase the cell condensation is found to be happening. Before the process of the mitosis chromosomes are allowed to move and during this entangled and breaking were also noticed.
