Answer:

Friedrich Meischer discovered nucleic acids in blood cells.

Explanation:

Nucleic acid is one of the four biological molecules. It is a polymer made up of monomeric units called Nucleotides. Nucleic acids make up two important molecules namely: DNA and RNA.

Nucleic acid was first discovered in the 1860's by a then young Swiss scientist called Friedrich Miescher. He was working on white blood cells and discovered a new compound that was different from the already known biomolecules i.e. carbohydrates, proteins, and lipids etc. This compound isolated by Friedrich Miescher was then called "NUCLEIN" because he got it from the nuclei of a blood cell.

His discovery was later proven to be Deoxyribose nucleic acid (DNA), the genetic material.

Sheryl is observing ovarian slides taken from a female ape. All the cells show crossover chromosomes. What is this stage?
Kobotan [32]
<span>The stage at which all the cells show crossover chromosomes is meiotic prophase I. The crossover is the exchange of genetic material between homologous chromosomes. Homologous chromosomes are present in the meiosis I. Regarding the phase of meiosis I, it is expected that the crossover takes place in meiotic prophase I since homologous chromosomes pair up in the prophase.</span>
