Cytokinesis is the process wherein actual division of the cell, including the cell membrane and the cytoplasm, from the parent cell to two daughter cells. The correct answer in this question is "the metaphase plate is the beginning area for cytokinesis" as the metaphase plate dictates the midpoint of the cell. A cell with a cell wall (plant cell, for example) cannot perform cytokinesis with a cleavage furrow but with a cell plate. Phragmoplast only develops in plant cells. Lastly, cytokinesis only starts after telophase.

Answer:

The correct answer would a. cell walls prevent cleavage furrow from deepening.

Cytokinesis refers to the division of cytoplasm of a parent cell into two daughter cells.

In animal cells, the cytokinesis is achieved with the help of cleavage furrow. The contractile ring of actin filament is formed below the cell membrane that constricts the middle of a dividing cell in order to complete the cell division.

In plant cells, due to the presence of a cell wall, cytokinesis takes place with the help of cell plate formation instead of a contractile ring.

Formation of cell plate takes place along the equator of the dividing cell. New cell membrane and cell wall are formed along each side of the plate in order to divide the parent into two daughter cells.

What the consequences would be if the entire water surface was covered with water lilies​
Lemur [1.5K]

Answer: There can be a ton of damage done if water lilies overgrow.

Explanation:

Water lilies protect the organisms under the body of water and provide shade to the plants and organisms underneath. These are very important for organisms, as they also provide a place to rest. But if the entire water surface were to be covered with water lilies, this would be a major problem, because sunlight would have no way of reaching below the surface, and this would decrease oxygen levels for plants and organisms. Without air and sunlight, plants will start to die and organisms of the body of water will also start to die because of no air to breathe. Also, overgrowth of water lilies causes water stagnation and leads to excessive algae blooms. The stagnant water attracts insects like mosquitoes, cockroaches, termites, and more pests which can harm plants and organisms.

Answer:

Traits are the genetically determined characteristics that are passed from parents to their offspring.

Explanation:

Traits refer to the characteristics that are present in an organism. These traits are passed from the parents to their offspring in the process of reproduction. When two organisms i. e. male and female of the same specie mate with each other forming a fertile offspring which has some characteristics of their parents. Sometimes, organism is closely related to their father and sometime more characters are transferred to offspring from mother.
