Answer:

A. differentiation

Explanation:

Cell differentiation consists of a set of processes that transform and specialize embryonic cells. After these transformations, their morphology and physiology are defined, which make them capable of performing a certain function.

We call differentiation in biology the process that all living cells go through to specialize in a particular function. These cells, despite being differentiated, continue with the same genetic code as the first cell, and the difference between them is in inhibiting or activating certain groups of genes - these responsible for defining the function of each of them. This, in addition to determining its function, entails some changes in cell structure, as happened with the cell described in the question, which promoted a change in its structure by merging with neighboring cells to form a multinuclear tube.

What is the center of the DNA strand?
den301095 [7]

Answer:

It exhibits traits and metabolic instructions of the cell.

Explanation:

A DNA strand is a thin long molecule, with an average width of just around two nanometers. The remarkable thinness of the DNA strands allows them to be bundled very tightly fitted inside cells. Once DNA has been replicated adequately during the process of cell division, it is further wrapped together under a mechanism known as supercoiling. A non-condensed DNA is further condensed during supercoiling using a special protein known as a histone. A part of DNA packed around a large cluster of histones is called a nucleosome. Additional condensation leads to a chromosome or the most compact type of DNA that fits into the nucleus. It is also worth noting that this wrapping does not merely align DNA into a cell, but serves other objectives such as protecting DNA, thus ensuring metabolic instructions to the cell.

NO LINKS!!<br><br> What is the role of mitosis in asexual reproduction?
Ksenya-84 [330]
The process of mitosis helps organizing reproduce by repeated division of cells, the somatic cells increase in number, the cells are differentiated into different kinds of tissues for the body of organisms.

basically,,,, the increase in the number cells by repeated mitosis divisions help the growth of asexually reproducing organisms and allow them to reproduce more.

Explain how the data you collected can be described as both qualitative and<br> quantitative
Nonamiya [84]
As quantitative data collection methods usually do not involve numbers and mathematical calculations but are rather concerned with words, sounds, thoughts, feelings, and other non-quantifiable data, qualitative data is often seen as more subjective, but at the same time, it allows a greater depth of understanding.
