Answer:Option C

Explanation:

Wilting can be defined as the process in which the leaves in the plants drops down.In normal conditions the water is absorbed by the roots and then it is stored in the vacuoles of the cell.

When there is lack of water in the plant body then the xylem releases all of its water and the leaves of the plant drops down.

This is done in order to decrease the surface area of exposure so that there is less requirement of water.

The xylem releases all its water when we observe plants that wilt.

Answer: Option C

<u>Explanation:</u>

Wilting is a process where the plant loses its rigidity and droops down. To understand it better the water is absorbed through the roots and aids in the functioning of the plant. The excessive water is stored inside the vacuole when during water scarcity releases water.

But during the drought conditions the water is lost completely causing the leaves to shrink. The xylem starts releasing all its water leaving a less surface area. Hence the leaf shrinks and wilting occurs.

Sister chromatids separate in anaphase of mitosis and anaphase Il of meiosis

Explanation:

After the interphase in the cell division cycle, the mitosis process begins, which is composed of 4 phases, prophase, metaphase, anaphase and telophase. The prophase occurs when the chromatin is condensed and the mitotic spindle is formed, the metaphase the chromosomes align along the cell equator, in the anaphase the separation of the sister chromatids occurs and in the telophase finally the heterochromatin is converted into euchromatin and the envelope is formed nuclear cell.

Meiosis, which is the cell division of germ cells, also has the same phases but they occur on two occasions: prophase I, metaphase I, anaphase I and telophase I for meiosis I and for meiosis II, prophase II, metaphase II, anaphase II and telophase II. In the anaphase I the homologous chromosomes are separated, they are condensed in the prophase II while in anaphase II the chromatids are separated.
