Answer: Mitosis

Explanation:

Since meiosis helps only in the production of gametes, mitosis helps the somatic cells in the already fertilized egg (zygote) to do the following:

- multiply their number, thus aiding growth

- form new cells like red blood cells to transport oxygen, white blood cells to fight infection, liver cells etc

Thus, for growth mitosis is the mechanism used to generate more cells

Chlorine in the stratosphere is believed to come primarily from cfcs rather than from natural sources such as volcanoes because:
Andreyy89

 he answer is because <span>samples of air taken over erupting volcanoes shows that volcanoes contribute a small amount of chlorine in the stratosphere compared to CFCs. Volcanic eruptions account for a large instability of chlorine from land to the atmosphere on a yearly basis. This is in addition to chlorine that enters the atmosphere from sea spray, industrial processes and biological gases which are from CFCs. All of these inputs happen near or at the base of the atmosphere. Very little of the material emitted from volcanoes makes it up into the upper reaches of our atmosphere which is the stratosphere where it could touch the ozone layer. However, most of it is believed to be deposited lower down which is in the troposphere, where it then rained out back to the surface of the earth.</span>

Answer:

Yes, it is

Explanation:

It is very much analogous. Just as in the analogy explained, DNA isn't visible to the naked eye when it is alone or single, or just one. On the other hand, it is very much easier to see when the DNA are in a cluster, just like in the cotton example.

Succinctly put, the example is analogous to DNA extraction
