Chromatid (Greek khrōmat- 'color' + -id) is one copy of a newly copied chromosome which is still joined to the original chromosome by a single centromere.

Before replication, one chromosome is composed of one DNA molecule. Following replication, each chromosome is composed of two DNA molecules; in other words, DNA replication itself increases the amount of DNA but does not increase the number of chromosomes. The two identical copies—each forming one half of the replicated chromosome—are called chromatids.[1]During the later stages of cell division these chromatids separate longitudinally to become individual chromosomes.[2]

Chromatid pairs are normally genetically identical, and said to be homozygous; however, if mutation(s) occur, they will present slight differences, in which case they are heterozygous. The pairing of chromatids should not be confused with the ploidy of an organism, which is the number of homologous versions of a chromosome.

Chromonema is the fibre-like structure in prophase in the primary stage of DNA condensation. In metaphase, they are called chromatids.

For mitochondria where an uncoupler for oxidative phosphorylation is present, which statement is TRUE?

olga nikolaevna [1]

Answer:

The correct answer is statement d.

Explanation:

In oxidative phosphorylation that takes place in mitochondria, the uncouplers prevent the coupling in between the phosphorylation reactions and electron transport, and therefore, prevent the synthesis of ATP without influencing the ATP synthase and respiratory chain.

The uncoupler always exhibits its influence on the synthesis of ATP. The 2,4-dinitrophenol functions as an uncoupler at the time of oxidative phosphorylation. The NADPH and FAD functions as an electron carrier.

SSSSS [86.1K]

Answer: e.Woman; there is not enough information to tell if the nondisjunction happened in meiosis I or II.

Explanation: There is not enough information to tell if the nondisjunction happened in meiosis I or II. Nondisjunction can occur during meiosis I and meiosis II, resulting in abnormal chromosomes number of gametes. The important difference between nondisjunction in meiosis 1 and Ii is that during meiosis 1, homologous chromosomes fail to separate while in meiosis II, sister chromatids fail to separate meaning it could have happened in meiosis I or II but we were not given.

Does a chameleon eat a frog?

Deffense [45]

Answer:

Explanation:

How does sound travel ? How does the medium the sound travels through help determine the speed of sound ?

Andreas93 [3]

The speed of a sound wave depends upon the medium through which it travels. In general, sound travels faster through solids than through liquids or gases. Also, the denser the medium, the slower sound will travel through it. The same sound will travel at a different speed on a cold day than it would on a warm day.
