Why is crossing over an essential step in meiosis

Biology
1 answer:
marshall27 [118]3 years ago
7 0

Crossing over is essential for the normal segregation of chromosomes during meiosis. Crossing over also accounts for genetic variation, because due to the swapping of genetic material during crossing over, the chromatids held together by the centromere are no longer identical.

The half — life of nickel is 96 years. How much of a 30-gram sample is left after 270 years?
-Dominant- [34]

The amount of the 30 gram-sample that will remain after 270 years is 6.61 grams

<h3>How to determine the number of half-lives </h3>

We'll begin by obtaining the number of half lives that has elapsed. This can be obtained as follow:

  • Half-life (t½) = 96 years
  • Time (t) = 270 years
  • Number of half-lives (n) =?

n = t / t½

n = 270 / 99

n = 2.8125

<h3>How to determine the amount remaining </h3>
  • Original amount (N₀) = 30 grams
  • Number of half-lives (n) = 2.8125
  • Amount remaining (N) =?

The amount remaing can be obtained as follow:

N = N₀ / 2^n

N = 30 / 2^2.8125

N = 6.61 grams
