What is the role of microfilaments in cell division

Biology
2 answers:
lesya [120]3 years ago

Answer:

Micro-filaments are long thread-like strands which are made up of repeating units of the protein actin.  

They with other network filaments like microtubule and intermediate filaments form the cytoskeleton of cell and also participate in the process of cell division at different levels like cytokinesis and mitosis.

1. During M-phase- at metaphase, they form spindle fibres which attach to the kinetochore of chromosomes and pull apart the chromosomes during anaphase.

2. During cytokinesis- in animal cells, at anaphase, they form actin fibres which forms contractile ring inside of the cell membrane and constrict animal cell from all sides.

Thus, micro-filaments plays an important role during cell division.

Describe temperate grassland ecosystem characteristics. Include climate, an example of a producer, and an example of a consumer
Aliun [14]

Answer:

A grassland is a biome where dominant vegetation is grasses, a consumer of this biome can be a herbivore (e.g., a rabbit). Coral reefs are home to millions of species of marine animals.

Coral reefs, seaweed and forest biome

Coral reefs are fundamental for protecting wildlife in marine ecosystems.

Seaweed is a common plant in the Euphotic Zone (Sunlight Zone, also called Epipelagic Zone), along with algae and phytoplankton.

Temperate broadleaf forests are represented by areas with marked warm and cool seasons that show moderate annual average temperatures (3 °C  to 25 °C).

Examples of producers in a temperate broadleaf forest may be Eucalyptus species, whereas consumers may include, for example, elk
