Looking through a light microscope at a dividing cell, you see two separate groups of chromosomes on opposite ends of the cell.

vladimir2022 [97]

Answer:

Option D, telophase

Explanation:

Telophase is the last stage of mitosis cell division in which the duplicated genetic material gets arranged into two identical daughter cells. In generals, this phase begins once the replicated, paired chromosomes have separated and arranged themselves on two opposite sides, or poles of the cells. After this, nuclear envelope begins to form around the chromosomes. After telophase, the cell undergoes cytokinesis to divide the cytoplasm of the parental cell into two daughter cells.

Hence, option D is correct

What is the term for solid organic matter transported by wind, water, or glacial erosion?

Julli [10]

Sediment or sedimentation is the term used for solid organic matter transported by wind, water or glacial erosion. Usually, Sediment is formed by weathering or rock. In time, this sediments will be accumulated and formed in a place in which it will stay.

In humans, Rh-positive individuals have the Rh antigen on their red blood cells, while Rh-negative individuals do not. If the Rh

bixtya [17]

Answer: 60%

Explanation:

In population genetics, the Hardy-Weinberg Principle states that the genetic composition of a population remains in equilibrium as long as no natural selection or other factors are active and no mutations occur.

The frequencies of the genotypes of an individual locus will be set to a particular equilibrium value. It also specifies that these equilibrium frequencies can be represented as a simple function of the allelic frequencies at that locus. In the simplest case, with a locus with two alleles A and a, with allele frequencies of p and q respectively, the principle predicts that the genotypic frequency for the dominant homozygous AA is p^2, that of the heterozygous Aa is 2pq and that of the recessive homozygous aa, is q^2. The allele frequency of a is represented as p and the frequency of recessive allele is q.

The three genotypes AA : Aa : aa appear in a ratio p² : 2pq : q². If we add them up, we get the unit:

p^2 + 2pq + q^2 = (p + q)^2 = 1

And p + q = 1

Rh-positive genotypes are represented as AA (homozygous dominant) or Aa (heterozygous) since the presence of a single dominant allele is sufficient to express the phenotype. While Rh-negative genotypes are represented as aa.

If 84% of the population is Rh-positive, that means that this percentage includes all those who are AA and Aa. Then 16% are aa.

F(aa)=q^2=0.16

then F(a)=q=0.4

And since p + q = 1, p + 0.4 = 1, then p is 0.6

We can also calculate the rest, then F(AA)=p^2= 0.36

So F(Aa)= 2pq = 2 x 0.6 x 0.4 = 0.48

Notice that 0.36 + 0.16 + 0.48 = 1

Transcription is the synthesis of ______

crimeas [40]

Answer:

RNA

Explanation:

Transcription is the second stage of central dogma of life (1. replication, 2. transcription, 3. translation).

During transcription, DNA (which is already replicated) is transcribed to RNA. This is because, the genetic information is present within nucleus and thus it is required to be transported outside the nucleus in order to perform key enzymatic functions. Therefore, transcription takes place and the genetic information travels outside in the form of RNA, where ribosomes decode this message to form proteins. The ribosomes make proteins (translation) required for enzymatic functions.
