During meiosis, a defect occurs in a cell that results in the failure of microtubules, spindle fibers, to bind at the kinetochor

es, a protein structure on chromatids where the spindle fibers attach during cell division to pull sister chromatids apart. Which of the following is the most likely result of such a defect?

Answer: Aneuploidy

Explanation:

<u>Meiosis is the cell division by which daughter cells are obtained with half of the chromosome sets</u> that the originall cell had but which have complete information for all the structural and functional features of the organism to which they belong.<u> It produces gametes, which are sperm and eggs.</u>

During metaphase, the chromosomes are already fully condensed and located in the centre of the cell, forming the equatorial plate.  They are attached to the fibres of the chromatic spindle by the kinetochore of each chromosome. The chromatids of the chromosomes are separated by the centromere because the fibres of the spindle are shortened. Each chromatide is directed towards a centriolus, located one at each pole of the cell.  <u>The same number of chromatids go to each pole of the cell, as the chromosomes have been divided into two chromatids.</u>

However, if there is failure of the spindle fibers to bind at the kinetochores, they can not pull the sister chromatids apart. The new cells will not receive the correct number of chromosomes in the gametes, which is known as aneuploidy.

Which is part of the theory of evolution by natural selection?
Katen [24]

Answer:

The correct answer is: A. Only the best-adapted animals in a population survive.

Explanation:

  • Natural Selection is the process by which the individuals of a species which has the potential to sustain and survive in adverse or changing environment gets a survival advantage over those individuals which are unable to adapt themselves to altered environmental conditions.
  • As the less potent individuals die in altered environmental conditions the  adaptable individuals escapes competition with them for natural resources.
  • Evolution causes species to alter their characteristics depending upon the demand of the conditions. These changes can vary, can be less or drastic.
  • Animals pass all the newly adapted traits to the successive generations either as genetic traits or as acquired traits, as this is necessary for the offspring to survive in the altered environment.
  • Natural selection is best defined as "the survival of the fittest".
