Carbon dioxide and oxygen are two molecules that undergo this simple diffusion through the membrane.
Answer: The correct answer is-
an agent that causes a mutation in DNA.
Mutagen is an agent or a substance that causes permanent change in the genetic material of living organisms ( DNA, deoxyribonucleic acid). This process is called mutation.
A mutagen can be a chemical, physical or biological agent that causes mutation in the DNA.
Example- Physical agents such as -
- Ionizing radiations like alpha particles, gamma rays, X-rays that brings break in the DNA and cause other damages.
- Ultraviolet radiations that creates pyrimidine dimers ( T=T) and causes replication errors if damage is not repaired.
Answer:
Which type(s) of cell division reduce(s) the chromosome number by half?
Meiosis l
Which type(s) of cell division can be classified as reductional?
Meiosis I
Which type(s) of cell division can be classified as equational?
Mitosis and Meiosis II
Explanation:
Meiosis is a type of cell division which occurs in the germ or reproductive cells to produce gametes. It is completed in the two stages, meiosis I and meiosis II. The cells which are going to divide by meiosis are diploid having two sets of chromosomes. Meiosis I is the first stage of the meiosis. At the end of meiosis I two daughter cells are formed having only 1 set of chromosomes and chromosome numbers are reduced to half. Thus, meiosis I is a reductional division.
Mitosis and meiosis II is the equational division as after division chromosome number remains the same as in the parent.
