The longitudinal halves of a chromosome that has undergone replication are known as chromatids. They will not be called chromosomes until after they are separated during Mitosis. Mitosis distribute the chromatids to daughter cells as a cell divides. The chromosomes are initially replicated in cells undergoing Meiosis, as in preparation for the mitotic division, but then, these chromosomes are divided twice so that four daughter nuclei are produced, each having the haploid chromosome number.
Yes, classification system is still evolving together with our knowledge.
But, before changing the name (e.g. of a species) it is important to collect and gather a wealth of information in order to support that change. Classification system is still evolving. The reasons for the changes are DNA analyzes. It is the new way for discovering relation between organisms and put them in the right context (classification used to be based on morphological characteristics).
Change in classification can be shown in an example of fungi. In the 90s fungi classification included only phyla Chytridiomycota and Zygomycota. Now theyhave been classified mainly on the basis of characteristics of their sexual reproductive structures. So, there are 7 phyla now: Microsporidia, Chytridiomycota, Blastocladiomycota, Neocallimastigomycota, Glomeromycota, Ascomycota, and Basidiomycota
Used to define and identify geological times.<span />
Answer:
(three) crossing over, mutations caused during crossing over, and independent assortment.
Explanation:
Because of recombination and independent assortment in meiosis, each gamete contains a different set of DNA. This produces a unique combination of genes in the resulting zygote. Recombination or crossing over occurs during prophase I.
c. Light independent reactions
