The Cambian period is the time period from approximately 540 to 500 million years ago when most of the major groups of animals first appear in the fossil record. In this period Rodinia began to fragment into smaller continents and continents distributed within 60 degrees of the paleoequator.<span>The dispersal of continents in the Cambrian is a result of the fragmentation of Rodinia

<span>During the Cambrian period, the continents were very closely placed together. Nearly the entire land mass of Earth was in the same place. Over time, with continent drift, those continents began to spread out and water came between the continents to how we know the world today. Now there is a giant ocean between North America/South America and Europe/Asia/Africa, where there wasn't before.</span>

In plants, ______________ are defined as haploid (1n) cells that develop into gametophytes. Gametophytes, in turn, produce eithe

soldi70 [24.7K]

Answer: SPORES are defined as haploid (1n) cells which develops into gametophytes.

Gametophytes inturn produce either haploid (1n) male or females GAMETES that can fuse to form diploid ZYGOTES.

This basically explains what goes on in Meiosis.

How would an increasing shark population most likely affect this ecosystem?

Lemur [1.5K]

D. The octupus population would decrease.

This is because if more sharks were in the ecosystem than they would feed on more octopus, decreasing the population of them.

Mitosis can occur in both haploid and diploid cells, but meiosis cannot occur in haploid cells. Why not?.

allochka39001 [22]

Mitosis can occur in both haploid and diploid cells because it is equational division where the number of chromosomes remain the same after division. But meiosis cannot happen in haploid cells because it is reductional division and haploid cells do not have any extra copy of chromosomes to be halved.

Mitosis is the cell division where the number of chromosomes do not change after cell division. It usually happens in the somatic cells of the body. Cancer cells also undergo mitosis

Meiosis is the cell division where the number of chromosomes are halved after cell division. The process of meiosis occurs in two phases: meiosis I and meiosis II. The germ cells of the body undergo meiosis.
