Answer:

Wegener presented a number of evidence to prove his plate tectonic theory, such as :

  • The matching of rocks on each side of the Atlantic Ocean like a puzzle.
  • His knowledge hat organisms such as freshwater reptiles were found in almost all continents
  • He also identified organisms that live in different continents, and could not possibly cross over to the other continents due to water bodies (oceans) separating the continents.

Wegener's plate tectonic theory caused doubts to other scientists, because of the way he presented his evidence. Other scientists considered his mechanisms unrealistic

katen-ka-za [31]

Answer:

The correct answer will be- Meiosis I, anaphase I

Explanation:

Alleles are the variant alternative forms of a gene which determines the trait of an organism. The trait or phenotype is expressed only when the two alleles controlling a single trait on separate chromosomes are aligned in a complementary position.

During gamete formation, the alleles controlling a trait segregate independently of each other. This segregation of alleles takes place during Anaphase I of meiosis I. During anaphase, the sister chromatids are separated by the mitotic spindles so that the chromosomes can reach the opposite poles.

Thus, Meiosis I, anaphase I am the correct answer.
