What characteristics do mutations have ?

Biology
1 answer:
aliya0001 [1]4 years ago
3 0
Some genetic mutations can be completely harmless, while others are life-altering. Mutations happen when DNA is copied incorrectly. This causes an irregularity in the DNA. Mutations are permanent changes to genetic material that can be passed on to offspring. These changes happen randomly and can occur in any type of gene. While some mutations are not harmful (hazel eyes, for example), many mutations have harmful effects on health.

Place the events in the correct order:
Alecsey [184]

Answer:

1. Chromatin condense into chromosomes.

4. Homologous chromosomes pair up (formation of tetrads).

5. Homologous chromosomes separate and move to poles.

2. Sister chromatids separate.

3. Chromosomes unravel in to chromatin.

Explanation:

This question portrays the process of meiosis in a cell. The ordered sequence of events in the options are:

1. Chromatin condense into chromosomes - This process occurs in the Prophase stage. Prior to the cell division, the nuclear material is found as Chromatin material. This Chromatin material then undergoes condensation to form visible chromosomes.

4. Homologous chromosomes pair up (formation of tetrads) - This process also occurs during the Prophase stage of meiosis I. In this stage, homologous chromosomes (similar but non-identical chromosomes received from each parent) are paired up side by side to form a structure known as TETRAD or BIVALENT.

5. Homologous chromosomes separate and move to poles - This process characterizes the Anaphase stage of meiosis I. Homologous chromosomes are pulled apart to opposite poles of the cell by spindle microtubules.

2. Sister chromatids separate - After meiosis I, meiosis II involving sister chromatids instead of homologous chromosomes follows. In the Anaphase stage of meiosis II specifically, sister chromatids are pulled apart towards opposite poles of the cell.

3. Chromosomes unravel in to chromatin - After the whole division process i.e. karyokinesis (division of the nuclear material), the chromosomes begin to unravel to form the CHROMATIN threads once again. This process occurs in the Telophase stage of meiosis.
