Answer:

The correct answer is option C. anaphase.

Explanation:

Anaphase is the process that separates the replicated or duplicated chromosomes present in the nucleus of a parent cell into 2 identical daughter cells.

The chromatids are separated by the mitotic spindle structure. The sister chromatids are separated together at their centromeres. Then separated chromatids are pulled by the spindle to different poles of the cell.

If nondisjunction takes place during anaphase of meiosis then this means that one pair of sister chromatids did not separate which results in 2 cells that have an extra copy of one chromosome and 2 cells that are lacking that chromosome.

A trisomy genetic diseases in males is Klinefelter syndrome caused by the availability of 1 or more X chromosomes.

Thus, the correct answer is option C.

Accumulation flooding occurs because the ground is completely _____ and there is no longer a zone of _______.
maw [93]

Answer:

Accumulation flooding occurs because the ground is completely filled with water and there is no longer a zone of dry land.

Explanation:

Flood is the overflow of water on the land which is usually dry throughout the year. It occurs when more water comes in the river due to rainfall or breaking of dam. But mostly flood occurs, due to melting of ice on the poles because of global warming. Global warming refers to the increase in average temperature due to presence of greenhouse gases such as carbondioxode, methane and water vapors etc in the atmosphere.

Anne is observing an animal specimen. It has body parts that seem to extend from a central point, just like spokes in a bicycle
myrzilka [38]
The answer is sponges.

Animals with the radial symmetry of the body have<span> body parts that seem to extend from a central point, just like spokes in a bicycle wheel. 

Through the process of elimination:
Sponges have radial symmetry.
Flatworms have bilateral symmetry.
Crayfish have bilateral symmetry.

Therefore, among all choices, only sponges have </span>body parts that seem to extend from a central point, just like spokes in a bicycle wheel. <span>

The sickle-cell allele is pleiotropic (that is, it affects more than one phenotypic trait). Specifically, this allele affects ox
butalik [34]

Answer:

adaptations are compromises

Explanation:

The pleiotropic gene involved in sickle-cell anemia is an example of heterozygous advantage. This means that the heterozygous genotype is favourale over other two genotypes (recessive homozygous and dominant homozygous). Eventhough it has harmful effect (sickle cell disease carrier) heterozygous genotype enables resistance to infection (malaria) and that is why this genotype is still favourable by natural selection. This phenomenon is evidence of compromise between harmful ad benefit.
