What are the chromosomes called when they look like Xs​
Marina86 [1]

Answer:

I think you're referring to the Metaphase...

Explanation:

During Cell Division (or, rather before!) the DNA needs to be replicated. This normally is done by DNA Polymerase, and results in two identical double strands (the "Sister Chromatids".

These chromatids are held together at the Centromere, which will be the heart of the "X"-shape. After that the DNA is packed into Chromosomes by winding it around proteins called Histones. If I remember correctly there are 5 different Histones.

This "Zipping Up" makes the chromosomes more visible.

As the two sister chromatids are still connected, the result is the X-shaped Metaphase Chromosome....

Nadya [2.5K]

Answer:

The correct answer is D) dendrites; cell body; axon

Explanation:

Neurons cells makes the nervous system and are responsible for carrying the information from one body part to the other body parts. A neuron has three distinct parts dendrites and axon.  

Dendrites are the neurons extension which receives the impulse and transfers to the cell body. We can link dendrite with our fingers. Cell body is a spherical part of neuron like our palm and it controls all functions of the cell. Then from cell body signals are transferred to axons.

Axon is a long part of the nerve cell like our hand which helps in transmitting the signals to the next neurons. Therefore the correct answer is D.
