<h2><u>Full Question:</u></h2>
Which statement is not an accurate description of meiosis? A) Meiosis produces offspring that are genetically diverse. B) Meiosis produces offspring that are identical to the parent. C) In sexual reproduction half of the genetic material comes from the father (sperm) and half of the genetic material comes from the mother (egg). D) Meiosis decreases the number of chromosomes by half so that when a sperm fertilizes an egg, the resulting zygote has the correct number of chromosomes
<h2><u>Answer:</u></h2>
Meiosis produces offspring that are identical to the parent.
Option B.
<h3><u>Explanation:</u></h3>
Meiosis is a type of cell division that is generally seen during then gametogenesis of the higher animals where the diploid cells become haploid, thereby reducing the chromosome number of cell to half. This meiotic division ensures that the gametes produced are haploid in nature, so that when they fuse the zygote becomes diploid. And the meiosis also involves the steps like and indepencrossing overdent assortment which ensures that the offsprings produced are not identical to each other or with the parent as well. So the statement that meiosis produces identical offsprings is false.
Answer:D. astrocytes
Explanation:
glial cell are any of several types of cell that function primarily to support neurons its divided into four groups namely oligodendrocytes,
astrocytes, microglia, and ependymal cells. The astrocytes plays a key role in regulating ions, uptake and/or breakdown of some neurotransmitters, and contribute to the formation of the blood-brain barrier.
The number is 10 I am almost sure about the answer
Answer:
Stage 1—High birth and death rates lead to slow population growth.
Stage 2—The death rate falls but the birth rate remains high, leading to faster population growth.
Stage 3—The birth rate starts to fall, so population growth starts to slow.
Stage 4—The birth rate reaches the same low level as the death rate, so population growth slows to zero.
