As a cell gets larger, what kind of crisis might occur (related to DNA)

1 answer:

8 0

It is important that the surface area to the volume ratio gets smaller as the cell gets larger.Thus, if the cell grows beyond a certain limit, not enough material will be able to cross the membrane fast enough to accommodate the increased cellular volume. When this happens, the cell must divide into smaller cells with favorable surface area/volume ratios, or cease to function.

The type of cell division observed in the Figure is Meiosis. It can be deciphered by the presence of recombination between homo-logous chromosomes.

<h3>What is Meiosis?</h3>

Meiosis is a type of reductional cell division by which a cell produces four daughter cells having half of the genetic material.

Meiosis is a cell division that involves a genetic phenomenon known as recombination or crossing over.

Recombination refers to the exchange of genetic material between non-sister chromatids during Prophase I.

<h2>Reproductive Method </h2>

Explanation:

The rank in order from the most specific which is following .

(1) Reproductive isolating mechanism

(2) Sperm-egg incompatibility in sea urchins

(3) Gametic isolation 

(4)Prezygotic isolating mechanism

(1) Reproductive isolating mechanism- The components of regenerative confinement are an assortment of transformative instruments, practices and physiological procedures basic for speciation. They keep individuals from various species from delivering posterity, or guarantee that any posterity are sterile.

(2) Sperm-egg contradiction in ocean urchins- Bindin is a gamete acknowledgment protein known to control species-explicit sperm-egg grip and layer combination in ocean urchins.

(3)Gametic isolation - Prezygotic hindrances keep preparation from occurring. Gametic disengagement is a sort of prezygotic hindrance where the gametes (egg and sperm) come into contact, yet no preparation happens. Gametes might be not able to remember each other in various species

(4) Prezygotic isolating mechanism- while postzygotic segregation forestalls the arrangement of rich posterity. Prezygotic systems incorporate environment segregation, mating seasons, "mechanical" disconnection, gamete detachment and conduct seclusion.
