In the life cycle of an organism, meiosis is paired with the process of fertilization. understanding the life cycle of an organi

sm is the key to understanding how sexual reproduction ensures the inheritance of traits from both parents and also introduces genetic variation. complete the diagram to show the life cycle of a typical animal.

Meiosis creates gametes (eggs and sperm) with only a single chromosome set (haploid or n) from parental cells with two chromosome sets (diploid or 2n). During fertilization, the haploid sperm (n) and egg (n) fuse, producing a diploid zygote (2n). The cells of the zygote then divide by mitosis (which does not change the ploidy level) to produce an adult organism (still 2n) of the next generation. 
<span>In sexual life cycles, meiosis and fertilization keep the number of chromosomes constant from generation to generation. </span>

What determinant of mean arterial pressure would be directly affected by lasix, and would this typically raise or lower mr. unde
Marysya12 [62]
<span>By definition, the two determinants of mean arterial pressure are cardiac output and total peripheral resistance. It has been shown that Lasix decreases cardiac output and total peripheral resistance. Diuretics increase urine production, so it will lower mean arterial pressure.</span>

What could be inferred from suntans?
podryga [215]

Answer:

A tan might indicate sun damage to the skin.

Explanation:

Tanning is the process by which the skin is exposed to the ultraviolet rays that comes from the sun with the purpose of producing a dark-brown coloration called a TAN.

A tan achieved by exposure to the sun can actually indicate that a person's skin is undergoing damage from the UV rays of the sun, hence, the skin responds by producing a protein called melanin, which protects the skin and later forms the dark coloration- tan. From this explanation, tan is got in response to a damaging signal received by the cell, hence, a tan might indicate sun damage to the skin.

Explain how replacing asphalt with gravel or other permeable material can improve water quality.
Ira Lisetskai [31]
When coming to building something, some materials are more vulnerable to water and can wear away easier. Some can keep the water in, so depending on the material, the water quality can be better sustained.

During the action potential of a neuron, which ion is primarily crossing the membrane during the depolarization phase, and in wh
iragen [17]
The answer is Na + is entering the cell and the K + is leaving, during the depolarization phase of the action potential open Na + channels allow Na + ions to diffuse into the cell. This inward movement of positive charge makes the membrane potential more positive. The depolarization phase is a positive response sequence where open Na + channels cause depolarization which in re-occurrence causes more voltage gated Na+ channels to open.
