Answer:

Colchicine inhibits the formation of microtubules by inhibiting tubulin, a protein required for microtubule synthesis. Microtubules in the form of spindle fibers during cell division pull the DNA from the center of the mother cell into the new daughter cells. If microtubules are not formed DNA will not move into new cells. Hence new cell formation will be inhibited in the metaphase stage. Thus the correct answer is option D.

Of all the animals in the animal kingdom which one(s) would have the best chance for survival in mountains?
Fittoniya [83]

Answer & explanation:

Mountains are large formations of land at high altitudes, where conditions are often difficult. For example, cold weather and food shortages.

In the highest areas of the mountains, animals such as vultures, eagles, hawks and other birds of prey usually prevail.

In addition, it is common for the sides of the mountains to be covered with forests. In these areas it is possible to observe the predominance of animals such as moose, goats, sheep, skunks, llamas and lynx. This group has good climbing skills and manages to stay in the side of the mountains and in some high areas (not as high as the previous group).

Meanwhile, in the lower parts of the mountains, where the forest is denser, it is possible to observe the predominance of snakes, wolves, marmots, foxes, etc.
