<span>Organisms used to be classified in the earliest times according to their size. As science progressed, they started getting organized by their physical traits and now they're organized by traits found in their species that are not found in others based on the theory of evolution. They are classified according to how they developed from a starting organism.</span>

Answer:

Due to overlapping classifications and inability to classify organisms with limited information

Explanation:

Earlier the classification systems were based on the similarities and dissimilarities between the morphological traits of organisms. However, with discovery of more and more species it was found that several organisms with in the same species have different characteristics while organisms from different species have similar characteristics. In order to study all these variations , genetic engineering was used. This lead to a newer classification system where species are now defined based on their genetic structure and evolutionary history.

This new approach of classification also led to creation of new sub species group within the same species.

1. the process by which organisms produce new organisms of the same type ____________________
Korvikt [17]

Answer:

Reproduction.

Explanation:

Reproduction is the process by which organisms produce new organisms of the same type. This can be asexual (an organism not needing a mate to reproduce like certain plants or bacteria) or sexual reproduction (needing a mate to reproduce). Most species can only produce sexually.

kompoz [17]

Answer:

The probability of the study result being subject to bias while interpreting -------- it's a YES

Explanation:

Probability of Leukemia

A. Among traced group

= 4/1,870 persons.

B. Among self-reported group

= 4/443 person.

We can deduce

A higher rate of occurrence in self-reported group which could be causesd by fear of leukemia occurrence or suspicion of their previous exposure at atomic sites

Describe the phases of the cell cycle. be sure to include the name of each phase and what is occurring within the cell during ea
julsineya [31]

Actively dividing eukaryote cells pass through a series of stages known collectively as the cell cycle: two gap phases (G1 and G2); an S (for synthesis) phase, in which the genetic material is duplicated; and an M phase, in which mitosis partitions the genetic material and the cell divides.

 

<span><span>G1 phase. Metabolic changes prepare the cell for division. At a certain point - the restriction point - the cell is committed to division and moves into the S phase.</span><span>S phase. DNA synthesis replicates the genetic material. Each chromosome now consists of two sister chromatids.</span><span>G2 phase. Metabolic changes assemble the cytoplasmic materials necessary for mitosis and cytokinesis.</span><span>M phase. A nuclear division (mitosis) followed by a cell division (cytokinesis).</span></span>

The period between mitotic divisions - that is, G1, S and G2 - is known as interphase.

<span>Mitosis is a form of eukaryotic cell division that produces two daughter cells with the same genetic component as the parent cell. Chromosomes replicated during the S phase are divided in such a way as to ensure that each daughter cell receives a copy of every chromosome. In actively dividing animal cells, the whole process takes about one hour.</span>
