Which of the following is true about scientific theories?
melamori03 [73]

Answer:

Explanation:

It certainly isn't the last one. A theory is close to a guess. It fits all the known facts, but there is usually something missing. If someone figures out what is missing, usually by experiment, then the theory become a fact.

The rest of them (1 2 an 3) can all be true. 3 is the least viable. You have to be able to come up with a counter example to reject a theory.

I'm not sure about 2. New phenomena can still be part of current theories. Reluctantly, I wouldn't choose 2 because

1 is the best answer of a very poor lot. Do not be surprised if you use it, that it turns out to be wrong.

Within a given species, which two types of cells have the equivalent amounts of dna?
kiruha [24]
The original question has a set of choices. This is within the context of cell division. The choices are:

A. A cell in G1 of interphase and a cell in G2 of interphase
B. A cell in G1 of interphase and a cell immediately after the completion of meiosis II
C. A cell in G1 of interphase and a cell in metaphase II of meiosis
D. A cell in G2 of interphase and a cell in metaphase II of meiosis
<span>E. None of the above.
</span>
The correct answer is C. A cell in G1 is diploid and the cell in meiosis II is haploid but the amount of DNA still equivalent as each chromosome in the haploid cell consists of two chromatids. G2 cells already had been through the S phase therefore the genetic material is already doubled. A cell immediately after meiosis II has half the genetic material.
