List the key difference between meiosis 1 and meiosis 2

Biology
1 answer:
Deffense [45]3 years ago
6 0

In meiosis I, homologous chromosomes separate, while in meiosis II, sister chromatids separate. Meiosis II produces 4 haploid daughter cells, whereas meiosis I produces 2 diploid daughter cells. Genetic recombination (crossing over) only occurs in meiosis I.  Meiosis is the production of four genetically diverse haploid daughter cells from one diploid parent cell. ... In meiosis II, these chromosomes are further separated into sister chromatids. Meiosis I includes crossing over or recombination of genetic material between chromosome pairs, while meiosis II does not.

Answer:

A) sensory (afferent) division

Explanation:

The peripheral nervous system has two distinct divisions with different functions. The sensory or afferent division is one of them. The sensory or afferent division serves to deliver the sensory information from the receptors to the central nervous system. The neurons that carry sensory information are called sensory neurons. Cranial nerve II carries the sensory impulses about vision from the retina to the brain (a part of the central nervous system). This makes this nerve a component of the sensory division of PNS.

Draw and label the parts of the eye.<br> State the function of any five parts of the eye.
Sidana [21]

Answer:

The labeled drawing is attached; I just grabbed an image off of the internet. You can do this by hand by just copying what's in your textbook or other reference materials. Let me define five main parts:

  1. <u>Retina.</u> This is a thin layer of tissue on the back of the eye that receives the signals of light and transfers them to the brain so you can understand them as color and sight.
  2. <u>Cornea.</u> This is the front part, a reflective layer that "refracts" light. What this means is that light doesn't go directly through it, but its path is almost deflected a little.
  3. <u>Sclera.</u> This is the part that looks white from the front. It's a protein covering to your eye, and it's very close to the cornea.
  4. <u>Iris.</u> This is the actually colored part of your eye. If you have hazel or blue eyes, the iris is that portion of the eye. It allows differing amounts of light in.
  5. <u>Pupil.</u> This is the black part of the eye. It's a hole that looks black because of all the light coming through and being absorbed.

Compare and contrast endocytosis and exocytosis.<br><br> please help!!!
Dmitry [639]
Endocytosis is the process of capturing a substance or particle from outside the cell by engulfing it with the cell membrane, and bringing it into the cell. Exocytosis describes the process of vesicles fusing with the plasma membrane and releasing their contents to the outside of the cell. The main similarity is that both exocytosis and endocytosis are involved in transporting big molecules across the membrane using a vesicle and needs energy. The basic differences are that : 1) Endocytosis brings materials to the inside of the cell while exocytosis takes them out. Exocytosis, on the other hand, is described as the process of fusing vesicles with the plasma membrane to release their contents to the external environment of the cell.
