The question is incomplete. The complete question is as follows:

Which of the following is not true regarding fenestrated capillaries?

A) Fenestrated capillaries in endocrine organs allow hormones rapid entry into the blood.

B) Fenestrated capillaries in the small intestine receive nutrients from digested food.

C) Fenestrated capillaries are essential for filtration of blood plasma in the kidney.

D) Fenestrated capillaries form the blood-brain barrier.

Answer:

Fenestrated capillaries form the blood-brain barrier.

Explanation:

The fenesterated capillaries are small fine thin capillaries that helps in the exchange of substances. These capillaries are mainly found in the kidney, small intestine and glands.

The fenestrted capillaries allow the exchnage of hormone in the blood and in the kidney for the filtration. The nutrients can be easily exchanged by the capillaries present in the small intestine. The blood brain barrier function is not performed by the fenesterated capillaries. They allows the rapid exchange function and not as the barrier.

Thus, the correct answer is option (D).

The drug colchicine inhibits the formation of spindle fibers during mitosis. If you treat dividing plant cells with colchicine,

vekshin1

Answer:

Explanation:

During metaphase of cell division, the chromosomes line up in the metaphase plate and the spindle fibers from the poles extend and attach to the centromeres of the chromosomes. The spindle then contracts and pull different chromosomes to the opposite poles of the cell before the parent cell divides. If spindle fibers do not form, then the chromosomes will not separate during anaphase.

Therefore, the final cell after mitosis will be a cell with double the number of chromosomes -because if you remember, during interphase, genetic material is replicated so each daughter cell can have its copy-. Due to quality control in the process of cell divisison, this cell will mostly undergo apoptosis, otherwise, it could develop into cancer.
