Photosynthetic cells contain special pigments that absorb light energy. ... In plants, photosynthesis takes place in chloroplasts, which contain the chlorophyll. Chloroplasts are surrounded by a double membrane and contain a third inner membrane, called the thylakoid membrane, that forms long folds within the organelle.

A cell has 2n=8 chromosomes...how many chromosomes will this cell have in anaphase1,anaphase2,metaphase2?(meiosis)
iren [92.7K]
The answer is 8 (anaphase 1), 8 (anaphase 2), 4 (metaphase 2).

Meiosis is a cell division which results in a reduction of the number of chromosomes in half and it consists of meiosis I and meiosis II.
Before meiosis I begins, the cell is diploid (2n) and there are 8 chromosomes. In anaphase I<span>, the sister chromatids separate from each other to the opposite sides of the cells, and after that, there are 8 chromosomes and 16 chromatids. After telophase I, there are, however, <u>4 chromosomes that enter meiosis II</u>.
</span>
Meiosis II is similar to mitosis. So, in metaphase II there is the same number of chromosomes - 4 chromosomes. But, the chromosome number must double so in anaphase II there will be in total 8 chromosomes - 4 chromosomes at the one side of the cell and the 4 on the other side. After telophase II, there are 4 chromosomes.

Why are Bats blind?<br><br> *heeylo*
alukav5142 [94]

Answer:

Contrary to myth, bats aren't blind. In fact, research shows that depending on the circumstances, bats sometimes prefer using eyesight to sound when hunting. And many fruit bats, which drink nectar rather than hunt insects, don't echolocate at all. These species have particularly sharp vision,...

A student mixes various molecules needed for DNA replication. When he adds DNA, replication occurs, but each DNA duplex consists
weeeeeb [17]

Answer: DNA Ligase

Explanation:

During DNA replication, both the parental DNA strands are separated and act as templates for the synthesis of new strands. The formation of the new strands occurs in only 5'-3' direction and thus both the strands are synthesized in a different manner. One new strand with the template of 3'-5' direction will be synthesized continuously and is called a leading strand. The other strand with the template of 5'-3' direction will be synthesized discontinuously in the form of DNA fragments. These fragments are called Okazaki fragments and the strand is called a lagging strand. DNA ligase connects these fragments later to form a continuous lagging strand.

Therefore, DNA ligase is required for ligation of Okazaki fragments, and in absence of DNA ligase, the ligation of fragments will not occur and the newly synthesized strand will be discontinuous. However, if DNA ligase is not present in the reaction mixture, then the chances are that not all the newly synthesized DNA strands will be discontinuous. Only the DNA molecule with the lagging strand will be in the form of fragments.
