Although the cause of Parkinson's disease is unknown, research indicates that it may be due to defective nuclei in the cells of
kumpel [21]

Answer:

B) DNA could not be accurately replicated

Explanation:

Parkinson's disease is characterized by a deficiency in movement due to an anomaly in the nervous system of the body. However, according to this question, the cause of Parkinson's disease is unknown, although research points out that it may be due to defective nuclei in the cells of those affected.

Since Parkinson's disease is considered to be related to a defective nuclei at the cellular level, the most likely result is that DNA could not be accurately replicated. This is because DNA is located in the nucleus, and hence, a defective nucleus will affecti the DNA.

N.B: The other options are not related to the nucleus

Andrew [12]

Answer:

recombination and independent segregation of chromosomes during meiosis  

Explanation:

Recombination and independent segregation of chromosomes represent the two most important meiotic mechanisms by which sisters from the same parents can inherit different gene variants and therefore look very different from each other:  

1- Independent assortment (segregation) of chromosomes: during meiosis, homologous chromosomes are randomly distributed in daughter cells (which will give rise to the gametes), and therefore separate independently of each other. It is for that reason that gametes have unique combinations of chromosomes, which increases genetic variation.

2- Recombination, also known as crossing over, refers to the exchange of chromosome segments between non-sister chromatids during meiosis. This mechanism is well-known to produce new gene variants (alleles) in the daughter cells. In consequence, recombination also increases the genetic variation of the resulting gametes that will produce offspring (in this case, different sisters).

3. It absorbs any extra water that is around.

Explanation:

mosses are non-vascular plants in the land plant division Bryophyta. They are little herbaceous plants that retain water and other nutrients with the help of their leaves and uses carbon dioxide and daylight to make food by photosynthesis.  The sphagnum cells are very thin wall cells with enormous depressions or cavities which is uses as is to retain and ship water
