Answer:

Mitosis is the process of cell division in which a single parent cell divides into two daughter cells. The mitosis is also known as equational division in which the chromosome number remains same after the division.

The study of mitosis can be used for the knowledge of cancer. The study of mitosis explains that at which step of cell cycle, the cancer cell has arises. The  mutation of a particular protein involved in cell division can be studied by mitosis. Anti- cancerous drugs can be developed by studying the each and every stage of mitosis.

By studying mitosis scientists have learned how cells divide. Mitosis is the process by which cells reproduce, and without it cancer cells wouldn't be able to form tumors and spread throughout the body

How long does weed stay in a skinny person's system
olchik [2.2K]
<span>THC is stored in fat. That being said, even if you are a skinny person there are other factors that could affect how the test would turn out. It depends on how much water you drink, what kind of test you take for the weed and how much weed you smoke. There is no set answer. It could be a week or 10 days if you aren't a steady user of pot.</span>

Kai has a see-through glass tank with air, plants, and animals that eat those plants. He sealed the tank so no material can get
kipiarov [429]

Answer:

1. Carbon is moving from the living things in the tank into the air when they respirate, and from the air back into plants via photosynthesis

2. The amount of carbon in living things is increasing as plants use the carbon in the atmosphere, and animals eat the plants.

Explanation:

According to the question, a well sealed tank contains air, plants and animals. Since light can get into the tank, plants can perform photosynthesis. Living things in the tank release carbon in form of carbondioxide (CO2) gas through respiration. Plants then make use of this carbondioxide (CO2) to synthesize carbon-containing food (glucose) in the presence of sunlight. This process is called PHOTOSYNTHESIS.

Animals eat those plants and the stored carbon in the plants gets transferred to them. The animals release this carbon into the air again in the form of carbondioxide when they respire. Hence, carbon in the tank moves from the living things (respiration) into the air and back into plants (photosynthesis).

2. Since the amount of carbon in the air is decreasing, the carbon is being used by the living things in the tank. Plants absorb the carbon in the atmosphere for photosynthesis, then animals eat the plants to get the carbon. Therefore, the amount of carbon in the living things is increasing.
