An organism that reproduces sexually has a diploid number of 30. How many
Strike441 [17]

Answer:

Gamete of organism has a haploid number of chromosomes.

2n = 30

n = 15

A diploid cell containing 30 chromosomes will result in 15 chromosomes in each of the 4 daughter cells after meiosis occurs.

After first nuclear and cellular division (Meiosis I), each daughter cell will only have 15 chromosomes as homologous chromosomes are broken apart at Anaphase I of meiosis I. Chromosomal number is halved. After the second nuclear and cellular division (Meiosis II), each daughter cell will also have 15 chromosomes. This time, instead of the chromosomal number being halved, their chromosomal contents are halved. Sister chromatids are separated at Anaphase II of Meiosis II, resulting in daughter chromosomes each.

Determine whether each example represents continental drift or sea floor spreading.
laila [671]

Answer:

Sea floor spreading-> <u><em>Oceanic ridge and Magma pushing two plates apart</em></u>

Continental drift-> <u><em>Concept of pangaea and Oceanic plates sliding under continental crust</em></u>

Explanation:

Due to the divergent plate movement, the magma come out to the surface, forming the mid oceanic ridge and this separation of plates on the sea floor is known as the sea floor spreading. The magma here pushes the two plates to move apart because of the convection current that generates in the mantle. One example of mid oceanic ridge is the Mid-Atlantic Ridge.

  Continental drift refers to the slow and gradual movement of the lithospheric plates over the viscous asthenosphere layer. This motion of continents takes place because of the plate tectonic movement. Due to this plate motion, the denser plate gets subducts beneath the less denser plates. For example, the oceanic crust when collides with a continental crust, it gets subducted because of its higher density. The great supercontinent "pangaea" also formed and separated due to this plate motion.
