Milli word means 1/1000 times while kilo word means 1000 times. That means a milli meter will be equal to 1/1000 meter while 1 kilometer is equal to 1000 meters. The conversion factor would be: 1 millimeter * (1 meter/1000millimeter) / (1000 meters/1 kilometer)= 1 * 10^-6 kilometer. The conversion factor is 1 * 10^-6 kilometer/mm

Since 1 mm equal to 1 * 10^-6 kilometer, the whale length would be:28,578 millimeters * (1 * 10^-6 kilometer/mm)= 0.028578 km= 2.85 * 10^-2 km

sesenic [268]

During mitosis, chromosomes are moved and separated through the use of spindles composed of microtubule structures.

Explanation:

Throughout mitosis, the chromosomes are initial replicated (copied) and so distributed into a pair of new "daughter" cells. They're replicated throughout the S section of interphase, and within the following phases (prophase, metaphase, anaphase, telophase) are organized, separated, and repackaged at opposite ends of the cell, at that purpose the cell divides. The strand of chromosomes split just like the cell throughout the cellular division. They split in half.

zubka84 [21]
<span>Eyes are sensitive to light and when light falls on them, they transmit electrical signals to the brain. The lens in the eye focuses light falling on it, on to the retina. Depeding on the amount of light and distance of objects from the eyes, the lens changes shape to allow focus on objects at varying distances and this is called accommodation.</span>
