Answer:

c. separation of homologs at anaphase I

Explanation:

Law of Segregation is also popularly known as purity of gamete. Law of Segregation is proposed by Mendel’s which stands universal law till date. The law states that allele (alternative form of same gene) pairs separate or segregate at the time of gamete formation.

The gametes form by meiosis or reductional division so, each gamete receives only one allele of trait.  

During metaphase I of meiosis the homologous chromososmes gets arranged on the central plate and get attached to the spindle fibres and then anaphase I begins with the separation of each chromosome of the homologue. Each chromosome of a pair moves to opposite poles.

The nucleus of prokaryotic cells are represented by what?​
Alisiya [41]

Answer:

Nucleoid

Explanation:

Prokaryotes are unicellular organisms that lack organelles or other internal membrane-bound structures. Therefore, they do not have a nucleus, but, instead, generally have a single chromosome: a piece of circular, double-stranded DNA located in an area of the cell called the nucleoid.

Cancer cells are rogue clones. List and describe three mutations that allow these cells to escape the normal restrictions placed
Amanda [17]
<span>Cells control cell division in order to maintain normal cell function. If something happens to the control of the cell division, the healthy cells will divide uncontrollably. These new cells are cancer cells. </span>
The mutations in three genes are responsible for development of cancers:
1. Mutation in proto-oncogenes. Proto-oncogenes normally signal cells to grow and differentiate. Proto-oncogenes can become oncogenes due to mutations which result in the uncontrollable division of the cells.
2. Mutation in tumor suppressor genes. In normal cells, tumor suppressor genes suppress genes essential for cell cycle and that way they prevent uncontrollable cell division. However, after a mutation in these genes, suppression is lost and the cell may progress to cancer.
3. Mutation in stability genes. In normal cells, they have no role either in cell death or growth, but they control mutation rate. Mutation in stability genes results in situation where all genes, including proto-oncogenes and tumor suppression genes, are more frequently mutated.
