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.

Do you think Peacocks would be in Hardy-Weinberg Equilibrium? Why or why not?
Slav-nsk [51]

Peacocks would not be in Hardy-Weinberg Equilibrium

Explanation:

This can be justified by the mating patterns of the female peacocks. They do not choose their mates randomly but look out specifically for bright attractive plumage in their male partners and then select them.

Hardy-Weinberg's Equilibrium of evolution mechanism was based on facts like random mating, no natural selection,  mutation, absence of gene flow, and infinite population size.

They stated that organisms mate randomly with each other without any specific or a particular preference in the phenotypes of their opposite mates

The amount of energy available to each successive level on a food<br> chain/pyramid?
Feliz [49]

Answer:

The ten percent law states that the total energy content of a trophic level in an ecosystem is only about one-tenth (or 10%) that of the preceding level. The trophic levels of any ecosystem can be arranged in a pyramid shape to show the amount of energy available to support one trophic level to the next.
