Answer:

Litmus paper-" A tool or system to measure a substance characteristics regarding there pH. As to check whether they are acidic, basic or neutral in nature."

A certain paper which is termed as litmus paper is stained with litmus, and then a certain substance which is under observation is stained over it. And then its properties are measured.

The standard provided to us shows us that pH recorded lower then 7 is acidic in nature, leveled at 7 is neutral and higher then 7 is termed as a basic substance.

Explanation:

Now, if the if the substance stained on a blue litmus paper is acidic then it turns in to red.
And if its a basic or alkaline substance then the red litmus paper is turned blue.

Which best illustrates the result of the process of meiosis

Bess [88]

Meiosis is a type of cell division that reduces the number of chromosomes in the parent cell by half and produces four gamete cells. This process is required to produce egg and sperm cells for sexual reproduction. During reproduction, when the sperm and egg unit to form single cell for sexual reproduction. During reproduction, when the sperm and egg unit to form a single cell, the number of chromosome is restored in the offspring.

Meiosis begins with a parent cell that is diploid, meaning it has two copies of each chromosome. The parent cell undergoes one round of DNA replication followed by two separate cycles of nuclear division. The process results in four daughter cells that are haploid, which means they contain half the number of chromosomes of the diploid parent cell.

Humans are homeothermic which means that we try to maintain the

marishachu [46]

Humans aren't the only mammal that is homeothermic. There are several other mammals that are homeothermic as well. When we say homeothermic, we mean that they are able to sustain a constant body temperature regardless of the wide range of environment temperatures. Although, it's impacted within time-to-time. They are able to maintain a steady body temperature, regardless of external temperatures. If you have any questions, ask me! I hope I helped you.
