What has to happen before mitosis begins?
Leokris [45]

Mitosis is simply a stage in a cells life cycle, which could be broken down further into stages of mitosis. The rest (so not mitosis) is know as Interphase and is where the cell does its normal function, so if it's the cell is in a region of muscle it would contract/relax as normal etc.

Immediately before mitosis (or M phase) is what's know as G2 phase, where the G stands for growth and is where particular gene pathways are expressed to promote growth of the volume of DNA (chromosomes are duplicated, so from 46 to 92). At the end of this stage is a checking process where the DNA is scrutinised for any errors, if all is okay then the cell can proceed to mitosis, if not then the process is stopped so that errors in copying the DNA can be fixed. This is know as a restriction point and the cell must meet the requirements to pass. This is often seen as a way cells can prevent damage being replicated and therefore interfering with normal cell processes. When cells are cancerous they are able to override this and therefore divide and spread the damaged DNA.

Would you expect to find plantlike organisms below 1,000m in the ocean?
olga2289 [7]
No. Below 1000m the sunlight could not reach therefore plant like organism would not be able to grow there. However if the organism does not need sunlight then it might have a small chance of survival. Of course there also is the water pressure that can also pose a problem. So I say No.

Explain how a species’ habitat differs from its niche
nikdorinn [45]

The species' habitat is the specific dwelling it is placed in, while niche refers to the interactions between other organisms in the same habitat, the manner in which it obtains food and other abiotic factors that influence it. In its niche, is it more predatorial or more preyed? The niche is the organism's JOB in the habitat.
