Answer:

d. Genetic material replicates and is joined at the centromere ----- INTERPHASE

b. Chromosomes line up at the equator and chromatids are attached to spindle fibers---- METAPHASE

e. Centromeres divide and single-stranded chromosomes move to the poles ---- ANAPHASE

c. Nuclear membrane and nucleolus reappear ---- TELOPHASE

a. A cleavage furrow or cell plate forms, separating the nuclei ---- CYTOKINESIS

Explanation:

This question depicts the events that occur in the cell cycle. The cell cycle begins with the preparatory phase called INTERPHASE and stops at the cytoplasm division called CYTOKINESIS. The correct order of the options in this question are:

1. D - The genetic material (DNA) replicates at the Interphase stage, specifically the Synthesis phase. The DNA replication is one of the steps the cell takes during the Interphase to prepare itself for division. The replication of DNA forms a structure called SISTER CHROMATIDS, which are replicated chromosomes held at the Centromere.

2. B - After the Interphase stage, comes the actual division (Mitosis). This option shows what occurs in the Metaphase stage of Mitosis. The spindle microtubules attaches to the kinetochore of each chromosome (sister chromatids) and they become aligned at the equator/middle of the cell.

3. E -- This option shows the occurrences in the Anaphase stage of Mitosis. The aligned chromosomes are separated and pulled apart towards opposite poles of the cell by the spindle fibres. Each pole contains a single strand chromatid of a pair. This is actually the essence of the replication process in Interphase stage.

4. C -- After the division of the nuclear material (chromosomes), a process called KARYOKINESIS, the important structures begin to reform in each pole of the cell during the Telophase stage. Prior to separation of chromosomes at the Anaphase stage, the membrane that bounds the nucleus called NUCLEAR MEMBRANE alongside the nucleolus is degraded in order for the spindle microtubules to assess the chromosomes. These structures form at each pole during Telophase stage.

5. A -- After karyokinesis (division of nuclear material), the cytoplasmic content of the cell needs to separate into two in a process called Cytokinesis. Cytokinesis occurs differently in plant and animal cells. Plant cells forms a cell plate due to their cell wall while Animal cells form a cleavage furrow at the equator of the cell.

In some plants, flower color, or __________ of the plant, is dependent upon environmental factors such as the acidity of soil. A

olga2289 [7]

The answer would be d) phenotype. The phenotype is the physical characteristic while the genotype is the combination of alleles from the parent--basically the part that you can't really see. The color of a flower is prominent, so that would be its phenotype. An organism's phenotype can also include certain behavioral characteristics as well, not just the way it looks! Hope this helped :)

Compare the arrangement of muscles in earthworms to amphioxus

mafiozo [28]

Earthworms have two muscles which is used in locomotion. Both muscles are circular and longitudinal (inner layer of the series of muscles). The diameter of the earthworms body is reduced when the circular muscles are contracted which makes them appear to be thin. The worm appears short when the longitudinal muscles contract thus, its length is reduced.

Amphioxus on the other hand, have two unique muscle fiber types. This includes deep fibers and smaller but mitochondria-rich superficial fibers. E<span>ach of which has its own innervation.</span>

In a study of genetic variation of the Graceland gene, a researcher finds that there are two alleles in a population. In a large

Licemer1 [7]

Answer:

Option 1, No. The highest frequency of heterozygotes under Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium is 0.5

Explanation:

As per Hardy Weinberg’s equilibrium principle, the maximum frequency of heterozytotic individuals occur only when half of the population is dominant and recessive homozygous.

In other way when the sum of frequency of dominant and recessive species is equal to 0.5, only then the frequency of heterozygotes is maximum which in any case would not be higher than 0.5.

Hence, option 1 is correct
