Joint cavities are spaces in between the bones that make up a joint. Fibrous and cartilaginous joints naturally have cavities in them. The cavities are encapsulated by articular cartilage and synovial membrane. So, fibrous and cartilaginous joints would be able to perform their functions if they had joint cavities.

The joint cavities are composed of two bones covered by the hyaline cartilage. The joint cavities allow for the movement of the two articulated bones. The fibrous and the cartilaginous bones have no joint cavities as they require little to no movement. These joints are connected tightly by the cartilage, such as in the spinal column. if the joint cavities were present in these joints, then these structures will not be held tightly and hence, they could not perform their function well.

Hence, the answer is 'the fibrous and cartilaginous joints will not be able to perform their function if they had joint cavities'.

Which event most accurately describes cytokinesis?

Talja [164]

Cytokinesis is the process wherein actual division of the cell, including the cell membrane and the cytoplasm, from the parent cell to two daughter cells. The correct answer in this question is "the metaphase plate is the beginning area for cytokinesis" as the metaphase plate dictates the midpoint of the cell. A cell with a cell wall (plant cell, for example) cannot perform cytokinesis with a cleavage furrow but with a cell plate. Phragmoplast only develops in plant cells. Lastly, cytokinesis only starts after telophase.

A mutation within a gene that will insert a premature stop codon in mrna would _______

AveGali [126]

A mutation within a gene that will insert a untimely cease codon in mRNA would result in a shortened polypeptide chain.

<h3>What occurs if there is a untimely end codon?</h3>

Thus, nonsense mutations occur when a premature nonsense or end codon is added in the DNA sequence. When the mutated sequence is translated into a protein, the resulting protein is incomplete and shorter than normal. Consequently, most nonsense mutations result in nonfunctional proteins

<h3>What mutation motives untimely cease codon?</h3>

In genetics, a nonsense mutation is a factor mutation in a sequence of DNA that effects in a premature stop codon, or a nonsense codon in the transcribed mRNA, and in a truncated, incomplete, and normally nonfunctional protein product.

7) 4 unique haploid daughter cells are formed:

Anettt [7]

Answer:

Meiosis II

Telophase II

Explanation:

The chromosomes line up in a similar way to the metaphase stage of mitosis. The sister chromatids separate and move toward opposite ends of the cell. Meiosis II results in four haploid (N) daughter cells. You have FOUR (4) daughter cells with the haploid number (N) of chromosomes
