Answer:

these are the options ;

They show all or part of Earth.

They have a three-dimensional surface.

They use symbols to represent land features.

They correspond to distances on Earth using a scale.

They represent the relative shape of Earth accurately.

Explanation:

i will choose this ;

They show all or part of Earth.

They use symbols to represent land features.

They correspond to distances on Earth using a scale.

- Maps are two-dimensional pictorial representation of Earth or part of Earth. Various symbols are used to depict features of land. Distances are scaled to actual distances. The Earth is roughly spherical in shape. This cannot be represented on two dimensional picture. Hence, the depiction of Earth is distorted in shape.

The correct options would be:

They show all or part of Earth.

They use symbols to represent land features.

They correspond to distances on Earth using a scale.

Meiosis and mitosis are both forms of cell division. However, the outcomes of these processes differ. Consider a diploid organis

aleksandr82 [10.1K]

Answer:

Meiosis produces four genetically different haploid cells.

Gametic chromosomes have a different combination of alleles than parental chromosomes as a result of independent assortment

Explanation:

Meiosis and Mitosis are two types of cell division that occurs in living organisms. However, Mitosis produces daughter cells that are genetically identical to the parent cell while meiosis produces daughter cells that are genetically different from the parent cell. This accounts for the reason meiosis leads to genetic variation.

The production of genetically different cells by meiosis is as a result of the process of the random orientation of chromosomes during metaphase I of meiosis I. This process is called INDEPENDENT ASSORTMENT. However, crossing over occurs during prophase I of meiosis between non-sister chromatids of homologous chromosomes.
