Explain how the independent alignment of homologs, and also crossing-over during the first meiotic division, each contribute to

the genetic diversity of gametes.
Biology

BartSMP [9]3 years ago

Answer: Homologous chromosomes are randomly distributed to daughter cells, this means different chromosomes segregate independently of each other. And they exchange segments of DNA during crossing over. This recombination creates genetic diversity because genes from each parent are exchanged.

Explanation:

Meiosis is a type of cell division that produces gamete cells, which are sex cells (egg and sperm)

Chromosomes that form a pair and are found together are called homologous chromosomes, and they are inherited from each parent. During prophase of meiosis I, the homologous chromosomes exchange segments of DNA in a process called crossing over. This recombination creates genetic diversity because genes from each parent are exchanged. <u>It results in new combinations of genes on each chromosome.</u>

After that, during the anaphase of meiosis I, the two chromosomes line up on the equatorial plane of the cell. Then, they are separated and each will go to a new daughter cell. So homologous chromosomes are randomly distributed to daughter cells, <u>this means different chromosomes segregate independently of each other.</u>

What percent of one’s daily caloric intake should come from carbohydrates?
NISA [10]
This answer will vary a lot, depending on who you will ask. If you're asking proponents of the LCHF (low carbs, high fat) diet, they would say you should reduce your intake of carbohydrates down to around 10 to 20 percent, making either A or C your desired answer.

If you would ask people who propose the current nutritional guidelines as the best way of eating, the amount of caloric intake that should come from carbs according to them would be more in the range of around 40%, making B the correct answer.

There isn't really any clear cut answer here.

beks73 [17]

<u>Answer:</u>

To help relieve heartburn, a person should take medicine that is 'Over-the-counter (OTC) antacids and acid blockers'.

<u>EXPLANATION:</u>

  • Heartburn is a very common symptom of a condition called Gastroesophageal reflux disease.
  • This affects the lower part of the esophageal sphincter and also the muscle ring-like connection between the 'esophagus and stomach' which tends to infuse a backward flow of the stomach secretions.
