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.

Number of nuclear- meiosis has 2 mitosis only has 1.

Number of chromosomes meiosis has 4 haploid and mitosis has 2 diploid


Type of cell produced- meiosis oroduces sex cells or gametes mitosis produces somatic or body cells

nasty-shy [4]

Answer:

coatis would increase

sloths would increase

fruit bats would increase

Explanation:

The boa constrictor in this food chain is the top predator, thus it is on the top of the food chain. It preys on several of the animals on this list, such as the coati, sloth, and fruit bats, so it is regulating their numbers. If the boa constrictor is removed from the ecosystem, the ecosystem will lose its predator, so the animals on which the boa constrictor preyed upon will have no threat, thus will experience rapid increase in their numbers. The coatis, sloths, and fruit bats, all will be predator free in this scenario, so they will all experience increase in their population, which in turn will have big effect on all other species in the ecosystem.

DNA is the genetic material that makes up living things, and folic acid plays an important role in the formation of DNA. Jon wan
nirvana33 [79]

Answer:

The correct answer is - C. The amount of folic acid is the independent variable, and the DNA synthesized is the dependent variable.

Explanation:

DNA is the genetic material of most of the living organisms. In this question, Joe wants to study to see the effect of folic acid on the synthesis of the DNA. Folic acid ae the essential nutrients or vitamin for the synthesis of nitrogen bases of the DNA that are purines and pyrimidines. A dependent variable and an independent variable are two important part of any experiment.

A dependent variable is a variable being tested and measured. In the experiment Jon is conducting, the amount of DNA becomes a dependent variable that is being tested and measured in the presence of folic acid.  And folic acid is the independent variable tested to check the formation of DNA in bacteria.

Thus, the correct answer is - C. The amount of folic acid is the independent variable, and the DNA synthesized is the dependent variable.
