The role of microorganisms such as yeast in the environment is that these contain bacteria which are the workhorses of biological processes such as fermentation to produce metabolites that are beneficial to the body. An example of this is the fermentation of any fruit (or substances containing sugar) to produce metabolites such as alcohol, aldehydes, acids (lactic or acetic acid) and many more via the action of yeast bacteria, commonly <em>Saccharomyces cerevisiae</em>. Pollutants affect the functions of yeast as they play as contaminants of the living workhorses.Pollutants can introduce disturbances which affect how yeasts strive in the environment. This affects the production of metabolites as well.

Which statement correctly compares the transfer of genetic material during mitosis and meiosis?
guajiro [1.7K]

<span>d. During mitosis daughter cells receive an exact copy of the parent cells and during meiosis it only receives half of the genetic material.

</span><span>Mitosis and meiosis are simply cell division processes that occurs differently, they're characteristically divergent from each other according to their function and structure. Mitosis is the cell division that happens in all cells in the human body except sperm and egg cells. They produce diploid cells. Meiosis on the other hand is responsible for the cell division of the gametes, spermatogenesis (sperm cells) and oogenesis (egg cells), such haploid cells. </span>

RoseWind [281]
I’m not entirely sure about what you’re asking but chargaff’s rule is the thing that states that the amount of each “letter” in DNA is equal to its pair. Guanine (g) pairs with cytosine (C) and the same with adenine(A) and thymine (T). I’m sorry my answer is so vague, but I hope it helps a little!
