Determine the nature of chromosomes that align themselves on the metaphase plate in metaphase 1.

SOVA2 [1]3 years ago

<span>Homologous chromosomes have to attach together to the same spindle fiber during prophase 1. Then, some of them may go through crossing over, which switches fragments of them. Then, each pair of homologous will migrate to equatorial plane during metaphase 1. So, in the metaphase plate you will have pairs of homologous, both of them duplicated, but the 4 chromatides may be different due to crossing over (it depends on where the enzymes have cut and pasted in that process).</span>

aivan3 [116]
This question is incomplete. The options are:
<span>a. be choosy about which females they mate with.
b. be indiscriminant about which females they mate with.
c. mate with as many females as possible.
d. compete to mate with choosy females.
</span>
The answer is a: be choosy about which females they mate with. 
This is because the male would in this case be investing a lot of energy in parenting its young, and would therefore adopt a strategy of mating with one or very few females. It therefore makes sense that the male would be choosy in regards to its mate.

Imagine that scientists have discovered an industrial pollutant that modifies the structure of a cell cycle checkpoint protein s
Nadya [2.5K]

Answer:

Carcinogenic

Explanation:

A carcinogenic substance is able to modify or damage the genome in a way which promotes the formation of cancerous cells. Cell cycle checkpoint proteins are very crucial for the progression of normal cell cycle. They check for any anomaly in their designated step and halt the process if it is detected. Repair mechanism is activated and cell cycle does not progress till the damage has been repaired.

Here, the pollutant alters the structure of these proteins such that they lose their function. They are not be able to stop cell cycle from progressing even if there is some damage in the genome. The cell divides and gives rise to more damaged cells. Eventually these cells lose their normal function and just keep dividing due to which their division rate becomes double of the normal rate. It can ultimately give rise to cancer which is why the chemical is carcinogenic.
