What is the goal of meiosis? How many daughter cells do you have at the end of meiosis?

Biology
1 answer:
tatuchka [14]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

Goal of meiosis: To produce gametes with half the number of chromosomes as compared to the somatic cells.

Each parent cell produces four daughter cells by the end of meiosis.

Explanation:

The goal of meiosis is to produce gametes for sexual reproduction. Since male and female gametes fuse to produce a zygote, each of the gametes should have half the number of chromosomes as compared to the somatic cells to prevent the doubling of chromosomes by the end of each round of sexual reproduction.

Therefore, meiosis produces haploid gametes from diploid gamete mother cells. Absence of DNA replication between meiosis I and meiosis II ensures that the number of chromosomes is halved in the daughter cells of meiosis. Additionally, meiosis also imparts genetic variations to the progeny by the process of crossing over.  

A diploid parent cell enters meiosis I and produces two haploid daughter cells which in turn enter meiosis II to produce a total four haploid daughter cells.

Answer:

1. It is called the thermosphere because temperatures can reach up to 1,500 degrees Celsius (2,732 degrees Fahrenheit). However, despite the high temperatures, the pressure is very low, so satellites don't suffer heat damage.

2. The physical and biological changes that confirm climate warming include the rate of retreat in glaciers around the world, the intensification of rainfall events, changes in the timing of the leafing out of plants and the arrival of spring migrant birds, and the shifting of the range of some species.

3. Yet history is not the only reason why flood-prone locations are overpopulated. For one thing, rising sea levels and a changing climate are putting more cities' residents at risk. And what's more, new homes are still being built in flood-prone areas around the world.

4. A natural disaster is the consequence of the combination of a natural hazard (a physical event e.g. volcanic eruption, earthquake, landslide) and human activities. ... A natural hazard will hence never result in a natural disaster in areas without vulnerability, e.g. strong earthquakes in uninhabited areas.

5.  

Carbon dioxide dissolve readily in sea water hence makes it high in carbonic acid concentration. The fresh water will dilute the concentration of carbonic acid thus preventing the crab from being exposed to high concentrations which can dissolve its shell.

Research this week will be done over the Nervous System
erik [133]

Answer:

The major organs of the nervous system are the brain, spinal cord, sensory organs, and all of the nerves that connect these organs together.

The nervous system reacts to the presence of danger(instinct), stores memories, control the 5 senses, and commands the rest of the organ systems to maintain homeostasis.

The nervous system works together with the respiratory system, the circulatory system, the muscular system, and many more.
