Answer: Option B

Explanation:

The normal cells when grown in a nutrient medium starts growing in into the petri dish. The cells keep on growing and when the bottom layer of the plate is filled with the cells then the cells in the petri dish stops growing. This is because the cells observes the contact of one cell with another.

This is known as contact inhibition which does not allows the growth of one cell upon another. Contact inhibition is a part of cell signaling in which there are check points that allows the optimum growth of the cells.

This is a mechanism which helps the cells in optimum growth. This helps in preventing the cell from developing tumor by dividing uninterruptedly.

TUESDAY, JANUARY 19, 2021 What are the 8 taxons (levels) in order? What are the 6 kingdoms Taxons Kingdoms
Nuetrik [128]

Answer:

-8 taxonomic levels: <em>Domain, Kingdom, Phylum, Class, Order, Family, Genus, Species</em>

- 6 kingdoms: <em>Eubacteria, Archaebacteria, Protist, Fungi, Plantae, Animalia.</em>

Explanation:

Taxonomy is the study of different organisms, their classification into categories according to their morphological and molecular characteristics and their evolutionary relationships, and assigning to each them a binomial name.  

The categories where organisms are classified into are:

  • Domains are the highest taxonomic category in which living beings can be grouped or divided. There are three domains: archaea, bacteria, and eukarya.

- The <em>archaea domain</em> is composed of prokaryotic unicellular microorganisms that lack a nucleus, nuclear membrane, and organelles, but they have a cell wall that protects the cell. These organisms are capable of inhabiting in places with extreme temperature, salinity, acidity, or pH, among others. They reproduce asexually.    

- The <em>bacteria domain</em> is composed of a wide group of unicellular prokaryotic microorganisms with a simple structure and sized between 1 to 10 micrometers. These organisms lack a nucleus, nuclear membrane, and organelles. They only present plasmids and ribosomes. They have a cell membrane and a cell wall that protects the cell. Some of them can also present a capsule. They reproduce asexually.  

- The <em>eukarya domain</em> is composed of all the unicellular or pluricellular organisms that have eukaryotic cells that characterize by having a well-defined nucleus surrounded by a complex biological membrane. They also present organelles delimitated by membranes. These organisms reproduce asexually and sexually.  

  • Kingdom: Includes different phyla closely relates. The bacteria domain includes the Eubacteria kingdom. The archaea domain includes the archaebacteria kingdom. Finally, the eukarya domain is divided into four kingdoms: Protist, Fungi, Plantae, and Animalia.    
  • Phylum: Includes different classes closely related.
  • Class: Includes different orders closely relates.
  • Order: Includes different families closely related
  • Family: Includes different genera closely relates
  • Genus: Includes many species.
  • Species

Which genotype will offspring have if they inherit the a allele from both parents
grandymaker [24]
During meiosis, the daughter cell receives half it's alleles from the mother and the other half of their alleles from the father. Typically, the alleles go through independent assortment etc that makes the types of alleles that the offspring will have random. 

Hope that helps!
