Answer:
B. very high genetic variation
Explanation:
Selective breeding is the process by which crops or animals with desired phenotypic traits are chosen to produce offspring, which will contain the desired qualities. In this case, a group of scientists is trying to apply the principles of selective breeding to develop a particular crop plant.
This goal of producing a useful crop plant by the scientists can only be achieved when the plant species in question possess a HIGH GENETIC VARIATION i.e. difference in genetic constitution of individuals of the same species. This allows the individuals in the population to survive better.
Answer:
b: 8;8
Explanation:
Mitotic or meiotic cell division constitute the m phase of the cell cycle. At the end of the m phase, the new cells enter the interphase stage of the cell cycle. The interphase is further sub-divided into;
- <em>the
phase,</em> - <em>the
phase,</em> - <em>the S phase; and</em>
- <em>the
phase</em>.
The
phase is essentially a resting phase. Cells that do not need to divide except when necessary move into this phase after exiting the m phase.
Actively dividing cells enter the
phase after exiting the m phase. Cell development and growth takes place. From there, the cells enter the S phase where DNA replication/synthesis takes place. The cells then enter the
phase where proteins are synthesized in preparation for division or m phase.
At the S phase, the amount of DNA a cell carries is doubled but the chromosome number remains the same. For example, if a cell enters the S phase with 2 g of DNA containing 10 chromosomes, at the end of S phase, the amount of DNA would have come 4 g while the number of chromosomes will remain 10.
Hence, if the average amount of DNA in the assayed cells immediately after mitosis is 4 picograms, the amount would be 8 picograms at the end of S phase and will still remains 8 picograms at the end of
phase.
