Answer:
C.) 26 - 13
Explanation:
During mitosis, DNA is replicated during the S phase so that when the cell divides the daughter cells will have the same number of chromosomes that the parent cell had.
DNA replication also occurs during meiosis, but the cell divides twice, so the daughter cells will have half the number of chromosomes that the parent cell had. This is because the daughter cells are sex cells, which combine with another sex cell (either an egg or a sperm) to form one cell with a combined chromosome number.
Answer:
Anaerobes carry on cellular respiration in the absence of oxygen, whereas aerobes carry on cellular respiration in the presence of oxygen.
Explanation:
Many of the cell processes needed need some energy to occur. Cellular respiration is the process by which cells degrade organic compounds and turn them into energy. Cellular respiration follows two ways, which depend on the presence or absence of oxygen, and both of them begin with the process of glycolysis, which occurs in the cytoplasm and does not need oxygen to occur.
<u>Aerobic Respiration</u>
- Occurs in the presence of free oxygen.
- Series of reactions by which pyruvic acid (product of glycolysis) turns into CO₂ and H₂O, producing many ATP molecules.
- Respiration occurs in the mitochondria.
- Takes place in two steps or stages: Krebs cycle and electron transporter chain.
- Glycolysis and Krebs cycle produce electrons, which then travel along the electron transporter chain while releasing energy, and ATP is produced.
<u>Anaerobic Respiration </u>
- Occurs in the absence of free oxygen
- Series of reactions by which using pyruvate (product of glycolysis) 2 ATP molecules van be produced.
- There are two ways in which anaerobic respiration can be produced: lactic fermentation and alcoholic fermentation.
- Lactic fermentation produces lactic acid and 2 ATP
- Alcoholic fermentation occurs in two steps, and the final products are ethylic alcohol, 2ATP, and 2 CO₂
- The whole anaerobic process occurs outside the mitochondria.

4. Gene frequencies will remain constant
A star’s life expectancy depends on its mass. Generally, the more massive the star, the faster it burns up its fuel supply, and the shorter its life. The most massive stars can burn out and explode in a supernova after only a few million years of fusion. A star with a mass like the Sun, on the other hand, can continue fusing hydrogen for about 10 billion years. And if the star is very small, with a mass only a tenth that of the Sun, it can keep fusing hydrogen for up to a trillion years, longer than the current age of the universe.
