Answer:

In meiosis, chromosome number in daughter cells is reduced by half while in mitosis the chromosome number doesn't change.

Explanation:

In mitosis there is a single cell division, while in meiosis there are 2 cell divisions.

In both cases the process start with the replication of DNA, so each chromosome has two sister chromatids.

  • In mitosis, the sister chromatids separate, resulting in two daughter cells identical to the original cell, before the DNA replicated.

  • In meiosis, homologous chromosomes separate during the first cell division, giving two daughter cells with half the chromosome number of the original cell, but each of them still has two chromatids. During the second cell division the chromatids separate, resulting in a total of four daughter cells, each with half the chromosomes than the original one.

Phoenix [80]

Answer:

a. heart development.

Explanation:

As the third week of fetal development starts, the process of formation of blood vessels begins. Also, the splanchnic mesoderm in the head end of the embryo forms heart on days 18 and 19. Since it develops heart, this part of the mesodermal cells is called the cardiogenic area. The underlying endoderm sends the induction signals to these mesodermal cells to form a pair of endocardial tubes that gradually develop into a single primitive heart tube.

This primitive heart begins to beat by the end of the third week of development. Therefore, any drug that affects fetal development during the first 20 days of the pregnancy might affect the development of the heart.
