Answer:

Grinnell was the scientist who coined the term niche. An ecological niche the place where the species and their members live together. Niche is quite different from habitat.  

Niche include all the things which have impacts on a population and population impact on its environment and other species in their area. So the ecological niche does not mean the volume of area a species occupies but also include its specific functional role in its community.

For example, a lake can be considered as a habitat for fish but a lake can provide a different niche for fishes. A big fish hunting a small fish in a portion of a lake is a niche and a small fish hunting an insect in another portion of the lake is another niche.

In meiosis, allele separation during _____ is the chromosomal basis of segregation. metaphase prophase telophase anaphase
belka [17]

Answer:

Anaphase

Explanation:

Gregor Mendel has established in his law of segregation that the alleles of gene separates into gametes during gamete formation (meiosis). Alleles are borne on chromosomes, which is the form in which genetic material is being transferred.

This separation that was talked about by Mendel occurs in the Anaphase stage of meiosis. In this stage, homologous chromosomes or sister chromatids are pulled apart by microtubules to opposite poles of the cell. This separation causes the alleles on each chromosome to separate before the cell splits into two.
