<span>Meiosis is a specialized type of cell division that reduces the chromosome number by half, creating four haploid cells, each genetically distinct from the parent cell that gave rise to them.This process occurs in all sexually reproducing single-celled and multicellular eukaryotes, including animals, plants, and fungi. Errors in meiosis resulting in aneuploidy are the leading known cause of miscarriage and the most frequent genetic cause of developmental disabilitiesdiploid two copies of each type of chromosome (2N) zygote cell produced by fusion of a male gamete and female gamete (sperm and egg cells) haploid individual with one copy of each chromosome. also what the gametes are like when a diploid nucleus undergoes meiosis. (N) genome complete set of genetic information in the haploid set of chromosomes homologous chromosomes chromosomes that have the same arrangement of genetic loci, identical in visible structure and pair during meiosis, each member is called a homolog.</span>

Define Nucleosynthesis and describe what it was like in the first few minutes after the Big Bang
In-s [12.5K]

Answer:

Actually, in physical cosmology, Big Bang nucleosynthesis (or primordial nucleosynthesis) refers to the production of nuclei other than H-1, the normal, light hydrogen, during the early phases of the universe, shortly after the Big Bang. About first millisecond, the universe had cooled to a few trillion kelvins (1012 K) and quarks finally had the opportunity to bind together into free protons and neutrons. Free neutrons are unstable with a half-life of about ten minutes (614.8 s) and formed in much smaller numbers. The abundance ratio was about seven protons for every neutron. Before one neutron half-life passed nearly every neutron had paired up with a proton, and nearly every one of these pairs had paired up to form helium. By this time the universe had cooled to a few billion kelvins (109 K) and the rate of nucleosynthesis had slowed down significantly.

When salt water i added to a plant cell why does the cell membrane srink
borishaifa [10]

If a higher concentration of salt is placed outside of the cell membrane, the water will leave the cell to bond with it. The loss of water from this movement causes plant cells to shrink and wilt.

Describe what homologous structures are and give an example.
Juliette [100K]
A homologous structure is a structure or organ that can be found on many different animals that suggest that there is a common ancestor. It can be anywhere from a bone to a flap of skin to an organ. A common one to look at is the similarity between a human hand, bat’s wing, whale anterior flipper, and a cat’s paw. All of these have a common, 5-point structure to the bones which suggests that we all come from an animal that had 5 fingers.

Difference between setae and chaetae
Schach [20]
Both seta and cheta or chaete means bristles. I think the term can be used interchangeably . Just check this link:- http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polychaete It about polychaetes a class of annelid worms. These are extracts form the passage:- Each body segment has a pair of fleshy protrusions called parapodia that bear many bristles, called *chaetae, which are made of chitin. Indeed, polychaetes are sometimes referred to as bristle worms. Bundles of bristles, called *setae, project from the parapodia. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Polychaeta_anatomy_en.svg Thats a cross section the terms have been used interchangebly.
