Answer: The correct answers are-

1) C) S Phase

2) A) prophase, metaphase, anaphase, telophase.

Cell cycle corresponds to the division of cell, which occurs primarily through two phases that are - Interphase ( which has G1, S, and G2 phase) during which cell grows, duplicates its genetic material and M ( mitotic phase) phase during which cell divides.

S phase ( synthesis phase) corresponds to the duplication of the genetic material (DNA). It takes place place after G1 ( Gap 1 phase) phase.

2) Mitosis is a type of cell divison in which one parent cell divides to produce two daughter cells with same number of chromosomes. Prophase is the first phase, followed by metaphase, anpahse, and telophase.

1. I believe the correct answer is C. S Phase.

2. I believe the answer is B. interphase, prophase, metaphase, anaphase and telophase

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

The cell cycle is divided into 4 stages i.e. the Gap 1 (G1), Gap 2 (G2), Synthesis (S) and Mitosis (M) stage. The M stage is the longest and has 5 further stages that are interphase, prophase, metaphase, anaphase and then telophase. It is during the S phase that DNA is replicated

<h2>Further Explanation:</h2>

The cell cycle starts with the G1 stage where the cell rests from a previous cycle and also checks for any errors in the DNA. If none were found, it will proceed to the Synthesis (S) phase. In this phase, the chromosomes enter as single strands but come out as double strand due to replication of DNA. The cell cycle enters the G2 phase where for the last time error checking is done to confirm if any errors are present. If any are present, the cycle is terminated and if not, it proceeds to the Mitosis phase. In the M phase, the cell will undergo extensive cell division which starts with the chromatin condensing in the interphase and the nucleus envelope disappears releasing the chromosome pairs. Pairs of chromosomes then emerge in the prophase and food is stored for the division including doubling of cell organelles. Microtubules form in this stage. The cell then enters the metaphase stage where the chromosome pairs arrange themselves at the equator of the cell and held by the microtubules. The microtubules start to shorten and in the anaphase stage, single strands of chromosome are pulled to different poles of the cell and the microtubules then continue to shorten much more further pulling the single strands more towards the different poles. The cytoplasm then starts to pinch into 2 (cytokinesis) and the different sides start forming different nucleus. IN the end of telophase, 2 daughter cells emerge and the M phase ends concluding the cell cycle. The cell again will go into G1 phase to rest and start the next cycle.

What is the difference between plankton, nekton and benthos?

Archy [21]

<span>The common difference between the three organisms is the area in which they specifically live or stay in the ocean. Planktons can’t be seen by the naked eye and they require microscopes to be detected. Planktons usually float in the water and they cannot move on their own that’s why they are dependent in the movement of the water.

Nektons are organisms that swim through the water and they live in different depths in the ocean ecosystem. Nektons are composed of fish and other mammals that propel themselves through the water.

Benthos are organisms that live in the ocean floor and many of these organisms stay in one place by attaching themselves to rocks. This adaptation protects them from crashing waves and drastic water movements. Other benthos are known to burrow in the ocean floor either for food or protection.</span>

How do metabolic pathways keep from reaching equilibrium?

wlad13 [49]

Answer:

The metabolic chemical reaction is reversible, and they too would attain equilibrium if they take place in a test tube separately. However, if a cell attains metabolic equilibrium it is considered as dead. Thus, a cell in the body is not in equilibrium.

The spontaneous flow of substances within and outside of the cell prevents the metabolic pathways from attaining an equilibrium, and the cell persists to perform the work all through its life. This principle is demonstrated by the open hydroelectric system.
