The correct answer is: cleavage.

Cleavage is one of the types of mineral breakage. It is the tendency of a to break along smooth planes which are parallel to zones of weak bonding. Cleavage can be cubic when the break occur in three directions at right angles or it can be rhombohedral when the break occurs in three directions that are not at right angles. There is also one and two-direction cleavage.

Why is it bad to litter?
lesya692 [45]
It is bad to litter because that is harming the environment. When you throw out a can, it can harm a animal or several animals. Litter can also sink into the ground (I think) and harm the plants growing.

Explain how the independent alignment of homologs, and also crossing-over during the first meiotic division, each contribute to
BartSMP [9]

Answer: Homologous chromosomes are randomly distributed to daughter cells, this means different chromosomes segregate independently of each other. And they exchange segments of DNA during crossing over. This recombination creates genetic diversity because genes from each parent are exchanged.

Explanation:

Meiosis is a type of cell division that produces gamete cells, which are sex cells (egg and sperm)

Chromosomes that form a pair and are found together are called homologous chromosomes, and they are inherited from each parent. During prophase of meiosis I, the homologous chromosomes exchange segments of DNA in a process called crossing over. This recombination creates genetic diversity because genes from each parent are exchanged. <u>It results in new combinations of genes on each chromosome.</u>

After that, during the anaphase of meiosis I, the two chromosomes line up on the equatorial plane of the cell. Then, they are separated and each will go to a new daughter cell. So homologous chromosomes are randomly distributed to daughter cells, <u>this means different chromosomes segregate independently of each other.</u>
