25) Which statement describes asexual reproduction, but not sexual reproduction?

Explain how the independent alignment of homologs, and also crossing-over during the first meiotic division, each contribute to

BartSMP [9]

Answer: Homologous chromosomes are randomly distributed to daughter cells, this means different chromosomes segregate independently of each other. And they exchange segments of DNA during crossing over. This recombination creates genetic diversity because genes from each parent are exchanged.

Explanation:

Meiosis is a type of cell division that produces gamete cells, which are sex cells (egg and sperm)

Chromosomes that form a pair and are found together are called homologous chromosomes, and they are inherited from each parent. During prophase of meiosis I, the homologous chromosomes exchange segments of DNA in a process called crossing over. This recombination creates genetic diversity because genes from each parent are exchanged. <u>It results in new combinations of genes on each chromosome.</u>

After that, during the anaphase of meiosis I, the two chromosomes line up on the equatorial plane of the cell. Then, they are separated and each will go to a new daughter cell. So homologous chromosomes are randomly distributed to daughter cells, <u>this means different chromosomes segregate independently of each other.</u>

The answer is 51.0 ml but can someone explain why please

professor190 [17]

Answer:

$\boxed{\sf A. \ 51 \ mL}$

Explanation:

Amount of water displaced by the sphere will be equal to the volume of complete sphere.

As the sphere completely sinks to the bottom of the cup.

We have been given;

Diameter of sphere (d) = 4.6 cm

So,

$\sf Radius \: of \: sphere \: (r) = \frac{Diameter \: of \: sphere \: (d)}{2} \\ \sf = \frac{4.6}{2} \\ \sf = 2.3 \: cm$

Volume of sphere (V):

$\boxed{ \bold{V = \frac{4}{3} \pi {r}^{3} }}$

By substituting value of r we get:

$\sf \implies V = \frac{4}{3} \times \pi \times {(2.3)}^{3} \\ \\ \sf \implies V = \frac{4}{3} \times 3.14 \times 12.167 \\ \\ \sf \implies V = \frac{152.81752}{3} \\ \\ \sf \implies V = 50.94 \: {cm}^{3} \\ \\ \sf \implies V \approx 51 \: {cm}^{ 3}$

1 cm³ = 1 mL

$\therefore$

V = 51 mL

So,

Water displaced by the sphere = 51 mL

Explain nutrient recycling and importance of water cycle

lakkis [162]

Answer:

The nutrient cycle describes the use, movement, and recycling of nutrients in the environment. Valuable elements such as carbon, oxygen, hydrogen, phosphorus, and nitrogen are essential to life and must be recycled in order for organisms to exist.
