Cells starting mitosis and meiosis begin with what set of chromosomes. True or False

Biology
1 answer:
Arisa [49]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

with haploid or diploid set of chromosomes. True

Explanation:

There are two types of cells in the body, haploid cells and diploid cells. The biggest difference is related to the number of chromosomes that each cell contains, while diploid cells contain two chromosomes (2n), haploid cells contain a chromosome (1n).

Features:

1. A haploid cell has only one set of chromosomes (n), while diploid cells have two sets of chromosomes (2n).

2. In humans, somatic cells are diploid, while gametes are haploid.

3. Diploid cells develop as a result of mitotic cell division, while haploid cells develop as a result of meiotic cell division.

4. Mitosis produces 2 identical daughter cells, where both stem and daughter cells are diploid. In meiosis, a diploid cell divides twice to produce 4 haploid daughter cells.

5. Humans and most animals are considered diploid organisms, while algae and fungi are examples of organisms that are haploid in most of their lives. Male bees, wasps and ants are also haploid.

1. This is one structure essential in propagating young trees
Marizza181 [45]

Answer:

1. B

2. A

3. C

4. A

5. A

Explanation:

A nursery bed can be defined as a specially prepared temporary plot of land or garden which serves as a home for raising seedlings (young plants) prior to planting them in the main location (area). Thus, when older trees in the environment or surrounding dies or are cut-off, these younger plants (trees) propagated in the nursery bed are transferred to replace them.

<em>Some of the criteria or requirements for setting up a nursery bed are;</em>

1. Shed: this is one structure essential in propagating young trees.

2. Location/Site: a place near a source of water should be chosen because water is essential for plant growth and coolness from extreme heat caused by the sun.

3. Storage place for tools and equipment: it is important to have a complete set of tools or their substitute to be able to carry out all nursery activities properly.

4. Boxes, pots, and plots for germinating seeds: there are three places to germinate seeds, young plants, and young trees. Pots are used for germinating young trees while boxes and plots are used for raising seedlings.

5. Soil type: different plants need different types of soil. These includes clay, loamy and sandy soil.

In a study published in the journal Nature, scientists studied eight ponds in Florida: four that were populated by a species of
AlexFokin [52]

Answer: the rate of pollination of flower, in a field next to a pond with no fish, will DECREASE.

Explanation:

POLLINATION is defined as the process by which flowering plants, through the aid of external agents such as insects,wind, water and other animals, are able to transfer pollen grains from an anther to a receptive stigma. Insects are the most common pollinators. They visit flowers to obtain nectar and pollen as source of food. Flowers use various features, such as colour and scent, to attract and guide insects to the food source within them. In the process of reaching their source of food, insects bring about pollination.

From the study conducted by scientist in Florida, eight(8) ponds where subjected to the the study. The first four (4) ponds had species of fishes that fed on dragonflies and dragonfly larvae, hence the reason for a decrease in the population of the dragon flies in the area around it. While the remaining four (4) ponds had NO fish and the area around it is populated with dragonflies and dragonfly larvae. This is so because of the absence of fish.

It was then noted that the dragon lies fed of the insect pollinators such as the bees and butterflies. Since these dragonflies and its larvae are abundant in the field which is close to the pond with no fish, they will grossly depend on the insect pollinators as their source of food thereby decreasing the rate of pollination in the field next to the pond with no fish.

What are intermediate species? in an easy way to understand. And some examples?
tankabanditka [31]

Answer:

An intermediate is a species which appears in the mechanism of a reaction, but not in the overall balanced equation. Examples: Amphibian/land vertebrate (Pederpes)- Intermediate form between primary aquatic Upper Devonian amphibians and early tetrapods. Lizard/snake (Pachyrhachis)—Intermediate form of snakes and an extinct lizard-like reptile. It was a primitive snake with limbs.

In what stage of the cell cycle are the daughter cell produced
marshall27 [118]
The big idea to remember is that mitosis is the simple duplication of a cell and all of its parts. It duplicates its DNA and the two new cells (daughter cells) have the same pieces and genetic code. Two identical copies come from one original. Start with one; get two that are the same. You get the idea.
So it is the very last stage!
