Mitosis Involves one cell division? Results in two daughter cells Results in diploid? daughter cells? (chromosome? number remains the same as parent cell) Daughter cells are genetically identical Occurs in all organisms except viruses Creates all body cells (somatic?) apart from the germ cells? (eggs and sperm) Prophase is much shorter No recombination/crossing over occurs in prophase. In metaphase individual chromosomes (pairs of chromatids) line up along the equator. During anaphase the sister chromatids are separated to opposite poles. Meiosis Involves two successive cell divisions Results in four daughter cells Results in haploid? daughter cells (chromosome number is halved from the parent cell) Daughter cells are genetically different Occurs only in animals, plants and fungi Creates germ cells (eggs and sperm) only Prophase I takes much longer Involves recombination/crossing over of chromosomes in prophase I In metaphase I pairs of chromosomes line up along the equator. During anaphase I the sister chromatids move together to the same pole. During anaphase II the sister chromatids are separated to opposite poles. Similarities Mitosis Diploid parent cell Consists of interphase, prophase, metaphase, anaphase and telophase In metaphase individual chromosomes (pairs of chromatids) line up along the equator. During anaphase the sister chromatids are separated to opposite poles. Ends with cytokinesis. Meiosis Diploid parent cell Consists of interphase, prophase, metaphase, anaphase and telophase (but twice!) In metaphase II individual chromosomes (pairs of chromatids) line up along the equator. During anaphase II the sister chromatids are separated to opposite poles. Ends with cytokinesis.

Which of the three traits considered in this film (bipedality, extensive tool use, and large brains) were present in the 3.2-mil
belka [17]

Answer:

The bipedality

Explanation:

<u>One of the things the discovered fossil signified was that human bipedality was more ancient than the large brain size</u> because Lucy actually had a small skull which could indirectly be translated to small brain size.

NOTE: Bipedality can be described to mean the ability of an organism to move about with two legs. Hence, it must have been discovered that Lucy had two legs.

olga_2 [115]
Cells have unique characteristics wherein each develop a specific function determined by the activation of certain DNA sequences to generate this specific cell into its supposed design, this is why cell specialization exists. 

Hence, these cells can be directly identified with their morphological structures and the DNA sequences they posses.

Goshia [24]

The missing part of the question is as follows:

Phrase indicates a limit to the scientific accuracy of the experiment?

Answer:

The correct answer is - a sample size of 300 people.

Explanation:

In the given research Marcus developed a drug that is already 200,000 people taking the drug, and the scientist takes sample size of only 300 people for the experiment.

The sample is very small as compared to the total population who participated in the research. A sample size of 300 people is very small compared to 200,000 people. Such a small sample size will not give the proper idea and any effective result, there would be chances to miss some aspect or effect of the drug to be missed, so, this can be the limiting factor to the experiment.
