Cells pass through a G2 checkpoint before entering mitosis. Ideally, if DNA damage is 2 detected, the cells do not enter mitosis

until the damage is repaired. Why is DNA damage repaired before cells enter mitosis? *
A.) So that another round of DNA synthesis does not have to take place

B.) So that the chromosomes can align at the metaphase plate during mitosis

C.) So that the cytoplasm can be divided equally between the two daughter cells

D.)So that healthy daughter cells are produced, allowing the organism to continue growing

I think that the answer is D. The cell employs the G2 checkpoint to check for DNA damage and completeness of DNA replication. This is done to ensure that cell division runs smoothly which means that healthy daughter cells, with complete and undamaged DNA, will be produced. At this point, all necessary repairs are applied.

Researchers hypothesized that cocaine is pharmacologically active in primate fetal brain when pregnant primates are administered
pav-90 [236]

Answer:

Option A, Glucose metabolism in the fetal brain increased

Explanation:

Usage of cocaine during pregnancy is prohibited. However, in case if cocaine is taken it disrupts the metabolism as it increases brain glucose metabolism to the level of an adult human being. Since glucose metabolism in brain is a sensitive process, any disruption in it can lead to unaccounted effects such as dysfunctional circulation, and pharmacological effect. Cocaine increases the dopamine by blocking the dopamine transporters thereby increasing the Vmax. Since the brain of a child has all kind of neurochemical components, cocaine intakes by a pregnant woman produces reinforcing effects in brain of fetus and also make it pharmacologically active

Hence, option A  is correct

Answer:Over time, carbon-14 decays in predictable ways. And with the help of radiocarbon dating, researchers can use that decay as a kind of clock that allows them to peer into the past and determine absolute dates for everything from wood to food, pollen, poop, and even dead animals and humans.

What do studies show about temperature tolerance of intertidal animals
Rom4ik [11]

<u>Answer:</u>

<em>The intertidal zone is a region of extreme conditions and the organisms should have special mechanisms to cope up with the extreme conditions. </em>

<u>Explanation:</u>

Low tides expose an intertidal zone to air while high tides cover the intertidal zone with ocean water. When exposed to air the intertidal region is <em>directly exposed to the sun and there will be high temperature. </em>

Thus the animals have to cope up with the extreme heat and also have to face colder environment when under the sea.  <em>Since there is change in salinity the organisms have to handle this as well.</em>

Some animals with shells close their shell tightly to seal moisture. Animals like <em>snails and crabs have thick outer covering to prevent water loss by evaporation. </em>

Organisms like leaf barnacles cluster together to avoid individual exposure. <em>Animals like sea stars cling to the rocks to avoid being washed away by the waves. </em>

What is pollination? Identify three ways pollen can be transferred. How is cross-pollination different
Stells [14]

Answer:

The transfer of pollen to a stigma, ovule, flower, or plant to allow fertilization. It can be transferred by things that feed from what has pollen. Self-pollination occurs when the pollen from the anther is deposited on the stigma of the same flower, or another flower on the same plant. Cross-pollination is the transfer of pollen from the anther of one flower to the stigma of another flower on a different individual of the same species.
