Answer:

Mitosis:

  • Number of nuclear divisions: 2
  • number of cells produced: 2
  • number of chromosomes in cells: 2n (diploid)
  • Type of cell produced: body cell
  • Steps of the process: prophase, prometaphase, metaphase, anaphase and telophase.

Meiosis:

  • Number of cell divisions: 4
  • number of cells produced: 4
  • chromosome number: n (haploid)
  • Type of cell produced: sex cell
  • Steps of the process: Meiosis is characterized by two cell division processes: meiosis I and meiosis II. In meiosis I, we have prophase I, metaphase I, anaphase I, telophase I. In meiosis II, we have prophase II, metaphase II, anaphase II and telophase II.

Explanation:

Mitosis is the process of cell division where a diploid cell forms two diploid cells. That is, the daughter cells are exactly the same as the mother cells and they all contain the same number of chromosomes. This type of cell division occurs so that the body can create new tissues that will be necessary for the development and growth of the organism.

Meiosis, on the other hand, is a process of reductive cell division. This is because it is characterized by a diploid mother cell that undergoes nuclear divisions and gives rise to 4 haploid daughter cells, that is, each daughter cell has half the chromosomes of the mother cell. Meiosis is responsible for the formation of sex cells, the gametes.

What type of syndrome is this Karyotype
Ira Lisetskai [31]

Answer:

Patau's syndrome

Explanation:

Patau's syndrome is a genetic disorder caused by one additional chromosome 13, and therefore it is an aneuploidy caused by an extra chromosome (i.e., a trisomy). Individuals with Patau's syndrome have 47 chromosomes instead of 46 in some or all their somatic cells. This syndrome seriously affects fetal development, usually resulting in miscarriage, stillbirth or in neonatal death. The incidence of this syndrome is around 1/5,000 births.

1. The diagram below represents a cell and several
Ray Of Light [21]

Explanation:

(3) active transport

The molecules would be moving against their concentration gradient from a region of low concentration to a region of high concentration.

While cells facilitate the transport of molecules via movement across the cell membrane, there many different mechanisms. These include passive diffusion, facilitated diffusion,  and passive transport. However some very large molecules require specialized type of active transport, which requires energy in the form of ATP, in order to move substances across the membrane against their concentration gradient.

Active transport is a mediated process that requires an energy input and the use of specialized membrane proteins to move against the concentration gradient. These proteins require energy in the form of adenosine triphosphate or ATP in order to facilitate necessary conformational changes to the large protein molecules to alter the spatial location of the molecule. For instance, with Na+, K+ pumps in cell membranes.

which structure in leaves allows the gaseous reactants and products of photosynthesis to move in and out a b c d
Zepler [3.9K]

Answer:

Stomata

Explanation:

Photosynthesis is a unique phenomenon which occurs in the Chloroplast of plant cells. It is the way they synthesize their food in form of glucose. However, like every metabolic reaction, photosynthesis requires certain reactants and products.

Photosynthesis combines carbondioxide (CO2) gas and water (H2O) in the presence of sunlight to produce Glucose (C6H12O6) and oxygen gas (O2). The gaseous components of this metabolic activity enters (C02) and leaves (O2) the plant via a structure in the leaves called STOMATA.

STOMATA is a pore found in the epidermis layer of plant leaves that aids in the exchange of gases i.e. carbondioxide in, oxygen out during Photosynthesis.

Which two animals use echolocation? bats and humans bats and dolphins dolphins and humans dolphins and butterflies.
Mandarinka [93]

The two animals which use echolocation are bats and dolphins.

Both hunt their prey by articulating high-pitched sounds and listening for the echoes.

<h3>What is echolocation?</h3>

Echolocation is a method used by bats, dolphins and other animals to select the location of objects using reflected sound. This allows the animals to move around in pitch darkness, so they can guide, hunt, identify friends and enemies, and avoid obstacles.

Thus, bats and dolphins are two animals that use echolocation.
