Compare chromosome behaviors during mitosis and meiosis.

Biology
1 answer:
uysha [10]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

Explanation:

he cell division of eukaryotes consists of 2 types of division - mitosis, and meiosis. Both the cell divisions have karyokinesis which follows the cytokinesis. It takes some hours and an indirect type of cell division. The mitotic chromosomes and meiotic chromosomes show different behaviors -  

In mitosis, the cell divides one time while in meiosis the cell divides 2 times. DNA replication occurs during interphase in mitosis. In meiosis DNA replication happens in the first cell division and no DNA replication in the second cell division.

There is no synapsis in the mitotic chromosome. In meiosis, synapsis occurs in homologous chromosomes. It has seen in the prophase I of meiosis.

The 2 chromatids of the chromosome do not exchange their segments in mitosis. In meiosis the chromatids of 2 homologous chromosome exchange segments. This results in the crossing over between the 2 homologous chromosomes.

The mitotic chromosome, each chromosome joined by a centromere. The meiotic chromosome forms tetrads from bivalent. The bivalent consists of 2 centromeres where the tetrads are attached.

In mitosis, the chromosomes separate slowly during anaphase. but in meiosis short chromosomes separate early, and long chromosomes take some time to separate.

Which enzymes are secreted only by the pancreas?
a_sh-v [17]

Nucleases are the enzymes that are unique to the pancreas. These are enzymes which break down nucleic acids DNA and RNA into nucleotides. When these nucleotides reach the ileum, they are further degraded or digested into sugars, bases and phosphates. These nucleases are known as DNAase and RNAase

Other pancreatic enzymes such as amylase and protease are also produced by other digestive organs such as the salivary glands and the small intestine respectively. However no other digestive organ has been known to produce nucleases apart from the pancreas.

Nucleases are of two  main types, namely exonucleases which cut off the end of a nucleotide and endonucleases which will cut out certain nucleotide sequences right in the middle of a nucleic acid.
