The answer is spicules. These
sharp-pointed structures are formed from calcium carbonate skeleton of
the organisms. They can also be formed from silica. They can be big (megascleres),
or microscopic (microscleres). Also dependent on the number of axis on the spicules, they are classified as monoaxon,
triaxon or polyaxon.
Answer:
If there is homologous chromosomes (metaphase I) or duplicated chromosomes/sister chromatids (metaphase II) in the middle of the cell.
Explanation:
Meiosis involves two series of nuclear divisions grouped into meiosis I and meiosis II. Each division has the same number of stages i.e prophase, metaphase, anaphase, telophase etc. Meiosis I involves the separation of homologous chromosomes i.e similar but non-identical chromosomes from each parent.
On the other hand, meiosis II involves the separation of sister chromatids (duplicated chromosome). Since METAPHASE is generally characterized by the alignment of chromosome at the middle of the cell for separation in the anaphase stage, it means that the difference between metaphase in meiosis I and II will be whether it is homologous chromosomes that are in the middle or sister chromatids.
Therefore, according to this question, I would know if the cartoon is in metaphase I or II if:
- there are homologous chromosomes in the middle of the cell (metaphase I)
- there are sister chromatids in the middle of the cell (metaphase II).
Answer:
Deforestation
Climate Change
Invasive Species
Explanation:
Seventy percent of the Earth's plant and animals dwell in forests, and deforestation affects them directly. Once their habitat is lost, they are on their way to extinction.
Climate change also causes extinctions not only as a result of species intolerance to high temperature, but more commonly via a variety of related factors that alter a species’ interactions with other species.
Invasive species invade foreign territory. They use resources that the other species depend on. Then naturally one of the species will die off.
