Similarities between mitosis and meiosis (as many as possible, I really need help)

1 answer:

4 0

Meiosis and mitosis are both preceded by one round of DNA replication; however, meiosis includes two nuclear divisions. The four daughter cells resulting from meiosis are haploid and genetically distinct. The daughter cells resulting from mitosis are diploid and identical to the parent cell.
so the similarities are:
-ways for cells to divide
-same number of chromosome as the original cell
-both have the basic 5 phases
-both processes go through chromosome replication
-Meiosis II is similar to Mitosis
I hope this is helpful :)))
have a nice day

Which of the following is a covalent compound?

V125BC [204]

Answer:

Water is a covalent compound.

Explanation:

covalent compounds are individual molecules characterized by the sharing of electrons between two or more atoms. Two atoms with similar electronegativity will not exchange an electron from their outermost shell; the atoms instead share electrons so that their valence electron shell is filled.

Example:

Examples of compounds that contain only covalent bonds are methane (CH4), carbon monoxide (CO), Water (H2O) and iodine monobromide (IBr).

Properties:

1. At room temperature and normal atmospheric pressure, covalent compounds may exist as a solid, a liquid, or a gas.

2. Covalent compounds do not exhibit any electrical conductivity, either in pure form or when dissolved in water.

3. Covalent compounds have lower melting and boiling points.

Is dna replication describe as conservative or semi-conservative why

Lina20 [59]

Answer:

DNA replication is described as semi-conservative.

Explanation:

DNA replication is described as semi-conservative because each double helix formed comprises one strand from the helix from which it was copied and a new strand. That is, the replication of one helix results into two new copies of which each contains one of the original double stranded helix from which it was synthesized.

A recent study of the marine hawksbill turtle's stomach contents revealed that sponges constitute a major portion of their diet.

bearhunter [10]

Answer:

These structures that protect the sponges from most predators, but not turtles, are spicules.

Explanation:

Sponges skeleton is composed of calcium carbonate and siliceous micro-structures called spicules. Their morphology is so varied that it is used in taxonomy for identification and classification.

There are different kinds of spicules:

- Monoaxonic spicule: needle-shaped, straights or curves

- Tetraxonic spicules: they have four prolongations

- Triaxonic or Hexaxonic spicules

- Poliaxonic spicules

Two terms can be applied to any of these spicules kinds:

- Megaspicules: They are elongated and compose the main architecture of the sponge skeleton

- Microspicules: Variable in shape and size, with ancillary functions

Sponges have few predators thank to the spicule structures and their high toxicity. Many of them are capable of perforating soft tissues and producing urticant substances.
