Answer: D. It takes precedence over a prior conflicting will

Explanation:

"Causa mortis" is a Latin word that represent,"because of death". A gift causa mortis is defined as a gift created in the anticipation of the death to come. The example is a donor gift made on his or her death bed. However, the donor may not necessarily have to be dead for the donation to be deemed a causa mortis.

According to the law, gift causa mortis predominates over a historical dispute on will.

Hence, the correct option is D. It takes precedence over a prior conflicting will.

Answer: D) It takes precedence over a prior conflicting will.

Explanation:

Causa mortis includes latin terms, which means because of death. A gift causa mortis is a gift provided by the donor to the receiver on being a serious condition in which the donor finds himself not probably able to survive more. The gift causa mortis has an added advantage over the prior conflicting will as it as acceptable in the court of law as dying declaration.

Mitosis is a type of cell division. organize the images below to show the steps of mitosis.

barxatty [35]

Answer:

The correct order is F, E, C, G, H, A, D, and B (look at the image in the attached files)

Explanation:

Interphase: Stages G1, S, and G2. At this point probably, the chromatin duplication has already occurred, but it is still lax or dispersed. It has not condensed yet. Two pairs of centrioles are outside the nucleus (FIGURE F)
Prophase: Centrioles move forward to the opposite poles of the cell. Chromatin is condensed and individual chromosomes are now visible. The nuclear membrane breaks into many pieces. Spindle apparatus -microtubules- forms. (FIGURE E)
Metaphase: The polar and the kinetochore fibers drive each individual chromosome to the equatorial plane. This stage ends when all the chromosomes are completely arranged in the medial area. (FIGURE C)
Anaphase: Sister chromatids separate and move to the opposite poles of the cells, driven by the microtubules. In each pole, there are a pair of centrioles (FIGURE G and H).
Telophase: The nuclear membrane rearranges. Each sister chromatid becomes now a new chromosome. There is a pair of centrioles outside each of the nuclei. (FIGURE A)
Cytokinesis occurs at the end of the cell division. The rest of the cell is divided into two new daughter cells. Each daughter cell is an identical copy of the other cell, with the exact same genetic material (FIGURE D).
Decondensation of the genetic material of each new cell (FIGURE B).

A substance is very sour and has a ph of 4. what color would you expect it to turn a piece of litmus paper

Anika [276]

If a substance is very sour and has a ph of 4, then you would expect the litmus paper to turn into the shade of red. A substance that is sour and has a pH level that is below 7 would indicate that the substance is an acid or has acidic properties. For an acidic solution, the litmus would be red in color. If a blue litmus paper is used, then it would turn into red while if a red litmus paper is used, then it would remain as red. There is also a general type of litmus paper where the color change range from violet to red. A litmus is widely used in distinguishing acid and bases. It can be used in liquid solutions and in gas mixtures.

What three distinct elements make up the cytoskeleton in eukaryotic cells?

natita [175]

Answer:

Microfilaments, Intermediate filaments and microtubules

Explanation:

Three distinct elements make up the cytoskeleton in eukaryotic cells are:

1. Microfilaments or actin filaments which are composed of actin proteins. The functions of those filaments are: muscle contraction (myosin heads move “walk” on actin filaments), the movement of the cell, intracellular transport, maintaince of the cell shape..

2. Intermediate filaments which can be made of vimentins, keratin, lamin, desmin… Their functions are: the maintenance of cell shape, anchoring organelles, structural components of the nuclear lamina, cell-cell and cell-matrix junctions…

3. Microtubules are filaments polymers of alpha and beta tubulin. Their roles are in intracellular transport (associated with motor protein dyneins and kinesins), formation of the axoneme of cilia and flagella, formation of the mitotic spindle.
