B. The dead leaves insulate new buds from the cold. Hope this helps you and good luck!!!!!!

The best answer is B. Each year many tundra plants retain their dead leaves rather than shed them. The dead leaves insulate fragile new buds from the wind and cold. Grass tussocks are a good example of this. Many tundra plants also wear adaptive coats which are furry and waxy coatings on their leaves and stems. Fine hair or fuzz slows the wind, thus reducing drying and preserving heat. The waxy coating of many plants also help reduce water loss and evaporative cooling by the wind

How does the anaphase stage differ in the two phases of meiosis? Anaphase I separates sister chromatids and anaphase II separate
max2010maxim [7]

The answer is <span>Anaphase I separates homologous chromosomes and anaphase II separates sister chromatids into daughter cells.</span>


Meiosis is a cell division which results in the reduction of chromosome number by half - from diploid to haploid - in daughter cells. It consists of meiosis I and meiosis II. Meiosis I produces two haploid cells. Meiosis II is analogous to mitosis, so in total, meiosis results in four haploid cells. So, in meiosis, there are two anaphases - the anaphase I in meiosis I and the anaphase II in meiosis II.

<span>In anaphase I, the sister chromatids separate from each other to the opposite sides of the cells. In meiosis I there are 46 chromosomes in duplicate, which are present as pairs of sister chromatids. In anaphase of meiosis II, since the cell is haploid, there are 23 chromosomes in duplicate, which are present as sister chromatids.</span>

Nutrients in the deep ocean come from dead marine organisms. <br>True<br>False​
Viktor [21]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

The deep parts of an ocean receive minimal or no sunlight. Hence, the survival of phototropic organisms like plants and algae is impossible or minimal here. Hence, there is a very little diversity in deep oceans. The organisms living here have to feed on dead decaying matter or on each other for survival. Mostly, the organisms living here use dead organisms as food. No other food source is available here.
