Why are individual chromosomes more difficult to see during interphase than during mitosis?

Biology
2 answers:
Anestetic [448]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

This

Explanation:

Individual chromosomes are more difficult to see during interphase because they are not tightly coiled and condensed. During mitosis they are tightly coiled, making them easier to see. ... In anaphase I of mitosis, sister chromatids separate.

Hope this helps!

In the interphase, they are really thin, just one strand which is only a few atoms wide (very challenging for an optical microscope and not too easy for the electronic one)

You’re conducting a science experiment and notice that fruit flies with rounded wings produced more offspring. What does this su
Tomtit [17]

Answer:

This suggests that the round wing fruit flies are more adapted to live in the environment as compared to the curled wing fruit flies. Also, this suggests that round might be the dominant trait over the curly trait. This is because a dominant allele can show its trait even when both the alleles of a gene are different or heterozygous. On the other hand, a recessive trait will only be seen when the alleles will be the same and recessive type.

3. Briefly summarize in your own words what alternative explanations have been proposed for melanism that do not have to do with
PIT_PIT [208]

Answer & explanation:

Melanism occurs due to a genetic mutation that causes the excessive and concentrated production of the black pigment, called <u>melanin</u>. The consequence is living beings with darkened skin or fur. There are three types of melanism.

Adaptive melanism occurs by the need to adapt to the environment, a condition that will be passed through the generations. This melanism allows animals to camouflage themselves during hunting or to hide from predators.

Industrial melanism is related to human interference, especially industrial activities, in the lives of animals (dark-colored moths are the best-known cases). Air contamination is one of the main factors for this condition.

There is also pseudo-melanism, which partially affects animals and is generally motivated by genetic mutations. In certain species, the characteristic spots and stripes appear larger and darker than usual. This type of melanism is very present in cats such as tigers, cheetahs, leopards. However, other animals can still be affected.

In terms of communication, information is expressed either as the content of a message or through direct or indirect observation. That which is perceived can be construed as a message in its own right, and in that sense, information is always conveyed as the content of a message.

Information can be encoded into various forms for transmission and interpretation (for example, information may be encoded into a sequence of signs, or transmitted via a signal). It can also be encrypted for safe storage and communication.

Arrange the following stars in ascending order of size, (from the smallest to the largest). white dwarf giant star supergiant st
Alecsey [184]

Hi!

The correct order would be:


Neutron Stars (Smallest)

White Dwarf

Giant Stars

Supergiant Stars (Largest)


Neutron stars are generally smaller stars that have a radius that is generally about 10 kilometers in radius, and highly dense.

White Dwarf stars have a size of about the sun, with a radius that is generally about 7000 kilometers which is nearly the same as  that of the Earth.

Giant stars are considerably larger stars with a radius that falls in a range of 10- 100 solar radii.

Supergiant stars are the largest of this selection, with radius that may lie in a range of 30 - 1000 solar radii.


Hope this helps!
