Mitosis
Involves one cell division?
Results in two daughter cells
Results in diploid? daughter cells? (chromosome? number remains the same as parent cell)
Daughter cells are genetically identical
Occurs in all organisms except viruses
Creates all body cells (somatic?) apart from the germ cells? (eggs and sperm)
Prophase is much shorter
No recombination/crossing over occurs in prophase.
In metaphase individual chromosomes (pairs of chromatids) line up along the equator.
During anaphase the sister chromatids are separated to opposite poles.
Meiosis
Involves two successive cell divisions
Results in four daughter cells
Results in haploid? daughter cells (chromosome number is halved from the parent cell)
Daughter cells are genetically different
Occurs only in animals, plants and fungi
Creates germ cells (eggs and sperm) only
Prophase I takes much longer
Involves recombination/crossing over of chromosomes in prophase I
In metaphase I pairs of chromosomes line up along the equator.
During anaphase I the sister chromatids move together to the same pole.
During anaphase II the sister chromatids are separated to opposite poles.
Similarities
Mitosis
Diploid parent cell
Consists of interphase, prophase, metaphase, anaphase and telophase
In metaphase individual chromosomes (pairs of chromatids) line up along the equator.
During anaphase the sister chromatids are separated to opposite poles.
Ends with cytokinesis.
Meiosis
Diploid parent cell
Consists of interphase, prophase, metaphase, anaphase and telophase (but twice!)
In metaphase II individual chromosomes (pairs of chromatids) line up along the equator.
During anaphase II the sister chromatids are separated to opposite poles.
Ends with cytokinesis.
Multicellular organisms are referred to as eukaryotes while the opposite, unicellular organisms, are called prokaryotes. Among all the kingdoms, I believe the kingdom which all organisms are multicellular are Animalia and Plantae.
A) .was immediately accepted
Explanation:
The theory of plate tectonics was immediately recognized as the explanation for the moving continents. It provided a more scientific background as why continents drift apart and the seafloor keeps spreading.
- The theory explains that the earth is broken up into series of slabs called lithosphere which moves on the weak, ductile and fluid asthenosphere.
- The movement of part of the earth mantle provided the mechanism through which the lithosphere moves. This is now known as the mantle convection.
- This theory provided a scientific mechanism through which the plate moves and seafloor spreads.
- It was immediately accepted when the theory was propounded by Alfred Holmes in the 1930s

The pea aphid isn't a true autotroph because it is unable to use the energy from sunlight.
<h3>What is a true autotroph?</h3>
A true autotroph is an organism that produces biomass by a chemical process called photosynthesis.
This type of autotroph generates biomass by means of photosynthetic cycles of production.
In conclusion, the pea aphid isn't a true autotroph because it is unable to use the energy from sunlight.

<h2>False </h2>
Explanation:
The immune system develops integrated innate and adaptive modules that are pathogen type-specific and no single response can effectively control all types of pathogens
Both innate and adaptive immune system operate in cooperative and interdependent ways
Innate immune system is present since birth in an organism and is non specific in nature which means acts against all foreign antigens and molecules and provides first line of defense against pathogens
Adaptive immunity system is the acquired one which is capable of recognizing and selectively eliminating specific foreign antigens and is antigen specific which means can discriminate among different antigens; also has the ability to respond to various kinds of epitopes of pathogens
