Answer:

The correct answer is A. "Only a small percentage of cells in a tissue or cell culture are seen to be in mitosis at any given time".

Explanation:

If we were able to analyze at what phase of the cell cycle are most of the cells in our body, we will realize that most of them are at the interphase phase. The interphase phase is characterized by the cells not being in a mitotic stage, and they only are preparing their genetic material for replication. One evidence that suggest the fact that most cells are in interphase phase is that only a small percentage of cells in a tissue or cell culture are seen to be in mitosis at any given time. For this reason, interphase is also known as the "daily living" or metabolic phase of the cell.

Answer:

A. Only a small percentage of cells in a tissue or cell culture are seen to be in mitosis at any given time.

Explanation:

<em>The evidence that suggests that a cell spends the majority of its time in interphase is the fact that only a small percentage of cells in a tissue or cell culture are seen to be in mitosis at any given time.</em>

If such is not the case, a moderate to a large number of cells in tissue or cell culture should be seen in active mitosis.

<em>Because of the longer nature of interphase when compared to mitosis, more cells are caught in the interphase stage of the cell cycle than the mitotic phase.</em>

The correct option is A.

There are many methods to increase the amount of food produced. Which
dimaraw [331]

Answer:

<em>The overuse of pesticides</em>

Explanation:

Pesticides are usually sprayed on plants so that the pest organisms can be killed. But these chemicals sprayed on plants can be toxic for humans when humans consume crops which have been sprayed with pesticides. Also, erosion causes these toxic chemicals to get eroded in the nearby lakes. The chemicals in the pesticides are harmful for every life that uses this water. Hence, the overuse of pesticides might kill pests but it is also toxic for consumption by humans.

List in order the blood vessel and part of the heart
laiz [17]

Answer:

The major blood vessels connected to your heart are the aorta, the superior vena cava, the inferior vena cava, the pulmonary artery (<em>which takes oxygen-poor blood from the heart to the lungs where it is oxygenated),</em> the pulmonary veins (which bring oxygen-rich blood from the lungs to the heart), and the coronary

What happens when ATP is converted to ADP
Kaylis [27]

The electrons in these bonds carry energy. Within the power plants of the cell (mitochondria), energy is used to add one molecule of inorganic phosphate (P) to a molecule of adenosine diphosphate (ADP). The amount of energy stored is about 7,300 calories for every mole of ATP formed.

Did the Florida Panther become endangered because of natural selection, genetic drift, or gene flow?
Natalija [7]

Answer:

ALL OF THE ABOVE

Explanation:

Genetic Drift are the changes in allele frequency of a population that result from RANDOM survival or reproduction of individuals with certain characteristics.  Survival or reproduction of those individuals in the face of some environmental change is a matter of LUCK or CHANCE, not because of their phenotype or genotype.

While in Natural selection, the environmental events that affect a population are likely random, but the survival or reproduction of the individuals depends on their phenotypes and genotypes.

Meanwhile, Gene flow is the movement of genes into or out of a population. Low gen flow can lead to low genetic diversity.

Low population which can cause low genetic diversity, poor habitat conditions and habitat loss, road deaths, and commercial development in panther range are constant threats to the Florida Panther's survival.

All these causes are related and therefore affects the Florida Panther.

Your aunt grows sprouts hydroponically. from where do her plants get nutrients?
larisa [96]
Hydroponics way of growing, is way of farming, in which plants are grown in nutrient rich water. So, in Hydroponic growing of sprouts, sprouts get their nutrients from the nutrients supply like liquid fertilizers which are mixed with the water. It is one of the advantage of hydroponic means of growing because, unlike in soil system, the plants root does not have to work hard to get nutrient from underground. The easy availability of nutrients and other condition like water, pH level etc makes plants grow faster are fuller.

Also, advancement of technology have made it possible to prepare built-in hybrid hydroponic system which have multiple ways of delivering nutrient to specific plants.
