Answer:

The best estimate of population density of this particular Octopus spieces is (TOTAL POPULATION OF THE OCTOPUS)/(TOTAL AREA OF LAND)

Population density = (15/6) Octopus per hectare

Explanation:

To estimate the population density of a spiece in a particular area of land, we count the total number of the specie in the area and divide the total number by the area of the sampling region.

Above, the marine ecologist counts the number of octopus in three different intertidal regions that are each two hectares. The octopus counts are 7, 2, and 6 respectively.

Therefore, the total number of Octopus is 7 + 2 + 6 making 15. The regions are 2 hectares each. Since there are three of the intertidal regions, the total area is 2 x 3(6 hectares).

Therefore, Population density = (15/6) Octopus per hectare

Answer:

D) metaphase

Explanation:

Mitosis is a type of cell division in which the cell divides its replicated chromosome in equal amount in two daughter cells. Mitosis takes place in four phases: Prophase, Metaphase, Anaphase and Telophase.

Metaphase is the stage of the cell division during which the chromosome is present in the highly condensed form present in the centre of the cell. The chromosomes are aligned at the equator of the cell.

Thus, metaphase is the correct answer.
