The energy used for active transport comes from the ____

If a plant has both male and female reproductive organs it is: a) Monoecious. b) Dioecious.

jasenka [17]

Answer:

(a) Monoecious

Explanation:

Monoecious refers to plants which have both male and female reproductive organs. Most of the plants have both male and female reproductive organs.

Dioecious describes a plant group that have distinct male and female plants. monoecious is also known as single house as male and female are found in single individual and dioecious is also known as double house as it has distinct male and female plants

The ocean waters at the equator are warm because they receive more of the sun rays than the waters at the at the poles. Therefore, the water in these regions is less dense than those at the poles. The oceans currents, moving towards the poles from the equator, move on the surface waters while those from the poles move on the ocean floor.

As the warm currents move to the poles and cool, they become more saline because they become more concentrated with salts –saturation point lowers with temperatures. At the poles, most of the salts in ejected from the waters as brine as the water sinks to the ocean floor due to density.

This movement of water currents in such circular motion forms the Thermohaline Circulation. Heat on the planet is distributed in this way.

The video compares the key similarities and differences between mitosis and meiosis. Determine which events occur in mitosis, me

notka56 [123]

Answer:

Mitosis:

A single division occurs, separating sister chromatids

End result is two diploid cells that are genetically identical to each other and the parent cell

Meiosis:

The first division separates homologous pairs; the second division separates sister chromatids

Homologous chromosomes pair up and form chiasmata

Homologous pairs of chromosomes line up on the metaphase plate

Daughter cells contain recombinant chromosomes

End result is four haploid cells that are genetically different from each other and the parent cell

Mitosis and Meiosis:

Chromosomes duplicate during interphase

Process starts with a diploid cell

Duplicated chromosomes line up Individually on the metaphase plate in a diploid cell

Explanation:

Mitosis is the division of vegetative cells while meiosis involves the division of sex cells. Both divisions start with diploid parental cells but while the daughter cells in mitosis are also diploid, those of meiosis are haploid. This is why mitosis is referred to as equational division while meiosis is known as reductional division.

A cell that will undergo mitosis or meiosis would first have its genetic materials duplicated during interphase in addition to the synthesis of other important biochemicals such as proteins. Mitosis involves just a single division of the sister chromatids with two genetically identical daughter cells who are also clones of the parent cells resulting.

Meiosis, on the other hand, involves two divisions - the first one happens to separate homologous chromosome pairs while the second division separates sister chromatids just like in mitosis. During the early stage of meiosis, homologous chromosomes synapsed through the formation of a synaptonemal complex to form tetrads. Thereafter, synapsed chromosomes exchange chromosomal segments at a point known as chiasmata. All these happen at the prophase stage of meiosis I. The paired homologous chromosomes are then lined up at metaphase where they are engaged by the spindle fibers.

Meiosis II and mitosis are more or less the same with the chromosomes condensing at the prophase and the formation of metaphase plates at the metaphase. Sister chromatids are pulled apart and they migrate to the opposite poles at the anaphase and telophase.

3. Why is water regarded as the universal solvent?

docker41 [41]

Answer:

B

Explanation:

More substances dissolve in water than in any other chemical. this is because of the polarity of its molecules. H²0 has a small positive electronic charge and the oxygen side has a small negative charge. the negative and positive charges help water dissociate ionic compounds into them.
