Which of the statements best describes the process of crossing over during meiosis? Haploid daughter cells trade chromosomes in

pairs. Homologous chromosomes pair up and exchange segments of DNA. Chromosomes trade genes with other nearby chromosomes at random. Pairs of homologous chromosomes separate and move to opposite sides of the cell.

Homologous chromosomes pair up and exchange segments of DNA.

Option A

<h3><u>Explanation:</u></h3>

Crossing over is an event of Prophase 1 of meiosis 1. It occurs in the zygotene phase of prophase 1. Here the homologous chromosome pairs get very close together and gets packed within protein coat. The enzymes randomly cut the DNA segments from both chromosomes at same loci and exchange them with each other. This results in the exchange of genes between the two chromosomes. This is how the variation comes to place between offsprings of the same individuals. The crossing over results to form X shaped intersections between homologous pair of chromosomes which is called as chaismata. This phase occurs in pachytene phase and is visible in diplotene phase when the protein coat dissolves.

Phage lambda lytic versus lysogenic phases are controlled by two proteins, Cro which leads to lysis and CII which leads to lysog
Juli2301 [7.4K]

Answer:

The maintainance of the lytic and the lysogenic cycle is done by the Cro and the lambda repressor proteins when the number of bacteria is higher than the number of viruses that is the mode of infectivity or MOI the virus under goes the lytic cycle. This is done by the cleaving of the proteins.

So high nutrient concentration in the gut promotes the growth of the E coli that forms a protease that cleaves the Cro protein and causes the activation of the lysis in the bacteria. So in the high nutrient concentration the bacteria is itself responsible for its lysis.

Why will a cradle run forever in vacuum?
scoundrel [369]

At least, that's how it would work in an "ideal" Newton's cradle, which is to say, one in an environment where only energy, momentum and gravity are acting on the balls, all the collisions are perfectly elastic, and the construction of the cradle is perfect. In that situation, the balls would continue to swing forever.

plz mark me as brainliest if this helped :)
