Answer:

40 chromosomes, 20 chromosomes, 2 chromatids, haploid

Explanation:

Mitosis is a type of cell division that results in two identical daughter cells with the same number of chromosomes as the parent cell. The fish is a diploid with 40 chromosomes (80 chromatids), after the separation of sister chromatids during the anaphase of mitosis, each sister chromatid becomes a chromosome i.e 40 chromatids (chromosome) each moves to the opposite poles and after the cell divides (cytokinesis), each daughter cell will have 40chromosomes each.

Meiosis is a type of cell division that results in four daughter cells with each having half of the parental number of chromosomes. It involves two divisions; Meiosis I and Meiosis II

In meiosis I, homologous chromosomes lie side by side to form a structure called tetrad or bivalent consisting of 4 chromatids. During anaphase I, 20 chromosomes are pulled apart to each pole with each chromosome containing 2 chromatids. After cytokinesis in meiosis I, each of the two cells will have 20 chromosomes (40 chromatids) i.e 1 chromosome = 2 chromatids

At the end of meiosis II, which is similar to mitosis, chromatids are pulled apart and each becomes a chromosome, meaning 20 chromatids will be separated to each pole and become 20 chromosomes in each cell after cytokinesis. Since the parental organism was a diploid with 40 chromosomes, and the resulting daughter cells now have 20 chromosomes each, it shows that the chromosomal number has been reduced by half. 2n ---- n

What substance, produced during photosynthesis,
cricket20 [7]

Answer:

Glucose is the substance produced during photosynthesis which provides food for plants and animals in a food web.

Explanation:

The main source of energy in a food chain or food web is made by the producers. These producers are mostly plants that make food by the process of photosynthesis. As a result of photosynthesis, glucose is made as the main product whereas oxygen is made as the by-product. Glucose made is used to drive energy for all the activities of the cell. This energy, released from glucose,  is carried within an ecosystem from one organism to another.

A patient is seen for three extra visits during the third trimester of her pregnancy because of her history of pre-eclampsia dur
Alex787 [66]
The ICD-10-CM that should be reported is the O10.013. This is for pregnancies with pre-existing hypertension complicating the pregnancy in the third trimester. Since the patient is predisposed to pre-eclampsia from previous pregnancy and she is in her third trimester, the code to be used is O10.013.

2. Arrange these organisms into a food web:
Serjik [45]

Explanation:

A food web shows how organisms in a community prey and feed on each other (feeding relationships). It is composed of many interconnected food chains. In addition, it, therefore, shows how energy is transferred up an ecosystem from the primary producers (in this case the trees and grass) to the tertiary consumers (in this case the hawks and wolves).
