Answer:

The chromosomes will not be separated and the cell cycle will be blocked

Explanation:

Chromosome separation is one of the key steps during the formation of daughter cells during M-phase.

The chromosome segregation is proceeded by the attachment of the mitotic spindle (cytoskeletal structures) to the kinetochores of the chromosomes during metaphase.

If the chromosomes are not attached to the mitotic spindles or the kinetochore not properly attached to the spindle than a cell cycle checkpoint called spindle assembly checkpoint will not allow the cell to enter anaphase and the cell cycle will not proceed.

Thus, the chromosomes will not be separated and the cell cycle will be blocked is correct.

mixer [17]

 Answer: Spermatogenesis begins at birth and continues throughout a man's life.

The process in which haploid spermatozoa develop from germ cells in the seminiferous tubules of the testis is known as Spermatogenesis. Thus, the process of spermatogenesis start with mitotic division of the stem cells that is located close to the basement membrane of the tubules. However, a mature male gametes known as sperm but it is commonly known as spermatozoa.

Prokaryotic bacteria are surrounded by a ____________ that contains the ____________ to regulate the entry and exit of materials
lukranit [14]

Prokaryotic bacteria are surrounded by a cell membrane that contains the transport proteins to regulate the entry and exit of materials through the cell, the cell wall to help maintain cell shape and structure, and the capsule, which aids against drying out and protects bacteria from a host's immune system.

<h3><u>Explanation:</u></h3>

Bacteria are the prokaryotic organisms that are found in every part of Earth. These organisms do have an interesting ultrastructure. The coverings of the bacteria are three in layer. They are

A. The outer capsule.

B. The middle cell wall.

C. The inner cell membrane.

The capsule is the outermost covering of bacteria that is formed of different slimy materials. These materials contains hygroscopic substances which can absorb water from the surroundings even when the water concentration in outside is very very low. This layer of protection outside bacteria help them to protect themselves against drying out at dry conditions.

The middle cell wall is formed of polymers of N acetyl glucosamine and N acetyl muramic acid. This layer is chitin in nature and is strong enough to maintain the shape and size of bacteria irrespective of outer conditions.

The innermost layer of bacteria is cell membrane which is formed of proteins and lipids bilayer and this cell membrane contains different transport for proteins which help in transport of different substances like water and nutrients inside the cell by means of active transport or passive diffusion.
