My best guess would be C because when you split something up the mix’s of animals decreases and it would be a disturbance

Determine whether each statement describes mitosis, meiosis, or both mitosis and meiosis.
svp [43]

Occurs in  organisms that  sexually reproduce ==> Occurs in meosis.

Meiosis is a type of gamete-specific nuclear division.

Meiosis occurs during spermatogenesis and oogenesis (egg formation in women).

In order for the number of chromosomes, characteristic of the species, to be conserved, it is necessary that before the encounter, the number of chromosomes of each of the reproductive cells be divided by two.

The reduction in the number of chromosomes takes place during the phenomenon called "meiosis".


Occurs during  growth and  development ==> It concerns mitosis.

Mitosis will ensure the good fulfillment of several phenomena:

. embryonic development,

. the general growth of organisms from birth to adult size,

. continued growth of certain organisms and / or organs; for example, trees, hair, teeth in ruminants, nails, ...


The DNA is  replicated ==> concern both mitosis and meiosis.

The cell cycle of eukaryotic cells is as follows:

• Interphase (normal functions, DNA replication)

G1 - growth / cellular activity

S - DNA synthesis / replication

G2 - preparation for division

• Phase M (cell division): which consists of either mitosis or meiosis, depending on cell types.

• Cytocinesis (cytoplasmic division).

So whether it is mitosis or meiosis, both are preceded by a replication of the genetic material (DNA)


Occurs in  all organisms ==> concern both mitosis and meiosis.

An organism is a set of elements that make up a functional structure.

In biology, the term organism designates a living being as it is organized, that is to say composed of different organs or organelles forming a coherent whole (as opposed to micro-organisms).

All multicellular organisms have sexual reproduction, so their cells are systematically mitosis and meiosis.

We exclude microorganisms of which a very small part of them have asexual reproduction.


The number of  chromosomes  remains the same : concerns only mitosis.

During mitosis, the human cell has 2n monochromatid chromosomes. In phase S consists of a doubling of the amount of DNA indeed, and the cells then have 2n chromosomes bichromatidiens. In the metaphase of mitosis, the chromosomes of the mother cell are arranged on a "metaphase plate", then split in 2-chromosomes, but monochromatids, during anaphase. Each daughter cell therefore has 2n monochromatid chromosomes.



The number of  chromosomes  reduces by half ==> Concerns only meiosis

Meiosis unfolds in two stages:

* The first meiotic division is called reductional because it allows to pass from 2n double chromosomes to n double chromosomes.

* The second is called equational because it preserves the number of chromosomes: one passes from n double chromosomes to n simple chromosomes.

Meiosis thus allows the formation of 4 haploid daughter cells (or gametes).

In humans, a normal cell contains 2n = 46 chromosomes (thus 23 pairs) while a gamete contains n = 23 chromosomes in two divisions).

The process in which one species evolves into a variety of species is called apes
Goshia [24]
The process where a specie develops and evolves into new many species is termed as speciation. Macroevolution explores the mechanism of speciation where organisms across biological populations evolve as distinct population.
There are many causes to speciation, a) geographic isolation, b) gene flow reduction, and c) reproductive isolation.

What would happen if you stirred sand n water
Lina20 [59]

Answer: When you mix sand and water there are no reactions. The sand sits at the bottom of the water because the sand is heavier than the water is.

Which best describes the offspring of protists?
Hunter-Best [27]

Options found elsewhere:

-always genetically identical to one parent

-always genetically identical to both parents

-never genetically identical to one parent

-sometimes genetically different than both parents

Answer:

-sometimes genetically different than both parents

Explanation:

Protists are eukaryotes that cannot be classed as animals, plants, or fungi. They are quite diverse. Examples include amoeba, plasmodium, and slime mould.

Because they are so diverse, protists also have very different modes of reproduction. Some protists undergo asexual reproduction, where they simply make a copy of themselves without a mate. Others undergo sexual reproduction.

Therefore, the only option that can be correct is "-sometimes genetically different than both parents" .

If they were always genetically identical to one parent or both parents, that would mean that sexual reproduction could not be possible. If they were never genetically identical to one parent, that would mean that asexual reproduction could not be taking place.
