Answer:

c. Tubulin

Explanation:

Tubulin protein is polymerized to form the cylindrical structures of microtubules. Microtubules form the spindle apparatus during cell division. The spindle microtubules become attached to the kinetochores of chromosomes and mediate the alignment of chromosomes at the equator of cells during metaphase. The shortening of spindle microtubules is responsible for the movement of sister chromatids during anaphase. The same event also moves the homologous chromosomes during anaphase-I.

Any failure in the formation of the spindle apparatus would not allow the proper separation of chromosomes. Therefore, the cell with abnormal chromosome separation might have a faulty or no tubulin.

Why is e = hv important in pv cell considerations?
Zanzabum
E=hv is an equation important when dealing with light. E refers to the energy of a photon; h is Planck's constant and v is the wavelength. According to this equation, light particles called photons travels in packets of energy. This is important in pv cells because this is the technology used to harness solar energy which is converted to electricity. The amount of energy should be estimated to know the appropriate material of construction of the pv cell to achieve optimum conditions. In this way, the pv cell could maximize the sun's energy.
