Why are desert soils low in organic matter?

Biology
1 answer:
cluponka [151]3 years ago

There are two main theories for the lack of organic material in desert soils. Firstly, the organic life in most deserts is so sparse that it cannot produce much organic matter. Secondly when things do die and decompose in the desert the heat and sunlight often bleach nutrients out of the matter before it is decomposes enough to be absorbed into soil

Why should damage be repaired before a cell enters mitosis​
a_sh-v [17]

Answer:

Cells do not repair damage to DNA during mitosis because telomeres could fuse together. ... Throughout a cell's life, corrective mechanisms act to repair DNA strand breaks. The exception is during the critical moment of cell division, when chromosomes are most vulnerable.

What must happen to a chromosome before a cell starts mitosis?
slamgirl [31]
The chromosome must be duplicated before mitosis.

Mitosis is where a parent cell divides and produces 2 genetically indentical daughters cells. This process first requires the parent call to duplicate all of its genetic material. This ensures that the daughters cells are genetically identical to the parent cell and also the other daughter cell.

This is important because mitosis is used in many cases in living things such as growth, repair, and more. This ensures us for example not suddenly changed to another organism or another characteristic.
