Answer:

E. By presence of paired homologous chromosomes in the meiotic cell.

Explanation:

Differences between Mitotic Prophase and Prophase 1 of Meiosis:

  • The prophase of mitosis is relatively shorter than prophase 1 of meiosis.
  • Prophase of mitosis is characterized by the disintegration of the nuclear membrane and the movement of the duplicated centrioles towards the two poles of the cell.
  • Prophase 1 of meiosis is relatively longer and involves a number of consecutive events that do not occur in the mitotic prophase.
  • Prophase 1 of meiosis involves the disintegration of the nuclear membrane as well. But the most important event of this phase is the pairing of homologous chromosomes through a connection called a synapse. This is called chiasmata formation. Homologous chromosomes pair up in form of tetrads and exchange segments with each other. This process is called crossing over and it is crucial in the production of genetically varied daughter cells.

Which of the following factors might cause checkpoint genes to interrupt cell division? Check all that apply. Neurological signa
Strike441 [17]

Answer:

Neurological signals sent from fear responses in an organism tell the cell to stop. The cell's DNA has been damaged somehow. The cell's DNA was replicated incorrectly.

Explanation:

All the three options given can cause checkpoint genes to interrupt cell division.

Checkpoint genes are transcription genes that control cell cycle and sense defects during cells processes like DNA replication, segregation e.t.c and create response till the defects is repaired in the DNA. The important of checkpoint is that it ensure enough nutrients are available to support for division, ensure that the DNA has not been damaged, ensure that cells DNA is copied correctly and make sure cells have enough RNA for their protein synthesis.

Checkpoints genes can interrupt cell division if the dna is damaged, Dna is copied incorrectly and neurological signal sent from fear responses in an organisms tell the cells to stop.

Circulatory system
The circulatory system is the transport system for endocrine information. While the nervous system uses neurons, the endocrine chemicals and hormones must circulate through the body via blood vessels. Many glands in your body secrete hormones into the blood.
