Reefs are formed by calcium carbonate produced by the coral polyps. As a single polyp dies, its soft tissue decays, but the calcium carbonate cup remains.Other polyps build on top of the cup, and when they die, other polyps will build on their cups. Over time, this process creates larger and larger coral reefs.While corals are the chief architects of the reef structure, they are not the only builders. Corallin algae cement various corals together with compounds of calcium, and other organisms such as tube worms andmollusks donate their hard skeletons to the construction.

</span><span><span>A flagella (or flagellum plural) is a long strand like structure that is located in the front end part (more like a tail in front). It flips to the left and right in order for the organism to move. It is connected to the reservoir, which contains the storage of food for the organism.<span>

</span></span>These unicellular organisms are responsible for breaking down materials in the earth. They assist with the decomposition of the dead and decaying matter that can be found on the earth's surface. This break down also makes up natural fertiliser for the plants which then grow up fertilised. These unicellular organisms are also an essential part of the nitrogen cycle. They change the nitrogen from the environment and turn them into absorbable nitrates for the plants, which is an essential part of the plants' food.

A cell with 80 chromosomes undergoes meiosis. How many chromosomes are found in the daughter cells? How many daughter cells are
Dafna11 [192]

Answer:

1.) 80 chromosomes in each of the daughter cells. 2.) Two daughter cells are produced. 3.) The daughter cells are identical.

Explanation:

1.) In mitosis, a parent cell divides to form two daughter cells through the mitosis phases creating the same amount of chromosomes for each daughter cell as the parent cell.

2.) The parent cell divides to form the two daughter cells in cytokinesis.

3.) The daughter cells are direct replicas of the chromosomes in the parent cell unless there is a mutation in the DNA when it is being copying.
