Question:
Trudy made this Venn diagram comparing interphase and cytokinesis.
Which statement belongs in the region marked X? (image attached)
Answer options:
- Is the longest stage
- DNA is copied
- The number of nuclei doubles
- The number of cells doubles
Answer:
- The number of cells doubles
Explanation:
Cytokinesis describes the splitting of the cytoplasm after mitosis. During interphase, the DNA is replicated. During mitosis, the DNA condenses into chromosomes, and the chromosomes are aligned and separated to opposite ends of the cell. During cytokinesis, the cell separates into two daughter cells.
The major evolutionary episode corresponding most closely in time with the formation of Pangaea was the Permian Extinctions.
The Permian Extinctions happened around 300 million years ago and lasted for around 15 million years. It eliminated over 95 percent of water life and 70 percent of species on land. It was one of the largest extinctions in the history of Earth.
I think it is b because it is a result of an environmental influence
Absorbing CO2 into the blood is a part of the respiratory system!
Think about the actual physical process happening in the cell - the allele (or versions of a gene) are literally physical pieces of DNA strung together into chromosomes. And as the cell divides to form gametes, those chromosomes randomly assort themselves into the two new cells (conditional that each new cell gets one copy of each chromosome, in the case of gametes)...<span>
