Olenka [21]

Answer:

The correct answer would be meiosis.

In diploid organisms, meiosis is the process that results in the formation of four haploid daughter cells from single diploid parent cell. Each of the daughter cell contains half the number of chromosomes present in parent cell.

It results in the formation of haploid gametes (sperm in males and eggs in females) which is essential in the process of sexual reproduction.

The fusion of gametes results in the formation of diploid zygote that is, maintains the diploid nature of the organism.

Hence, in absence of meiotic division the chromosomal number would keep on doubling after each generation.

In addition, crossing over (exchange of genetic material between non-sister chromatids) also takes in the prophase-I of meiosis I. It increases the genetic variation within organisms of the species. It may add survival adaptations to the population.

While examining a specimen under the microscope, Janet discovers a structure that has some genetic material that has RNA but not
Archy [21]

Answer:

The correct answer will be virus.

Explanation:

The virus is the infectious agents which cannot replicate themselves. these viruses contain a protein capsid surrounding the genetic material.

The genetic material in the virus could be DNA or RNA but do not have both as single-stranded or double-stranded forms.  

A virus with RNA are common in nature and an only a limited amount of RNA or DNA can fit a capsid and the capsid along with genetic material is known as the nucleocapsid.  

Since the specimens show RNA but not DNA it is a virus-like Ebola, polio, measles, therefore, the specimen is virus and is the correct answer.
