False

Explanation:

  • During the meiosis, the cell is dividing two times and chromosomes are getting replicated. In this process, there can be errors. One of those errors is called nondisjunction.
  • As a result of the meiosis one, the cell gets divided into two cells and each will carry 23 chromosomes each. At this stage, These chromosomes are connected in the form of sister chromatids. During the meiosis two, these sister chromatids will pull apart and form four cells. Each one will be haploid cells. In meiosis one, chromosomes will undergo crossing over so this separation of chromosomes in the second meiosis is know as disjunction. However, in this process of separation, the chromosomes do not need to get distributed correctly. The errors that happened in this process are known as nondisjunction.
  • In humans, meiosis will happen and form sperms or eggs( gametes) which are haploid cells and later they combined to form a zygote which is the diploid cell.

Elza [17]
Darwin lived in a time where natural selection was a strange theory among scientists and researchers. This was especially true when other researcher Lamarck argued that organisms passed on helpful traits to their offspring, that they magically could form a new trait to adapt to their environment and then pass it onto their offspring. For example, if a giraffe was too short to reach food, it would grow a larger neck in its lifetime and then pass that trait onto its offspring. Darwin argued that, through the process of survival of the fittest, that short giraffe would die off and never receive the chance to pass on its shortness to future populations. Thus, taller giraffes would survive— they can reach food, shorter giraffes can’t— and the short genes would disappear. The fact that Darwin was introducing a new theory that nobody was used to at the time was peculiar, so he had few people on his side until long after his observations.
Another problem Darwin had was the lack of technology. To travel, Darwin would have to use boats to reach far away places, and of course, this took time.
The final problem Darwin had was the extra time it took for evolution, a process that can take up to millions of years. Evolution didn’t occur over night— it took time for Darwin to conduct experiments, observe, conduct them again, come to a conclusion, and so on.

Briefly describe lytic and lysogenic cycle​
MrRissso [65]
The lytic cycle involves the reproduction of viruses using a host cell to manufacture more viruses; the viruses then burst out of the cell. The lysogenic cycle involves the incorporation of the viral genome into the host cell genome, infecting it from within.
