Answer:

D) I: random fertilization; II: independent orientation; III: crossing over

Explanation:

Meiosis produces male and female gametes with genetic variations. Each of the male gametes has equal chances to fertilize female gamete with any gene combination. Since the presence of specific gene sequences does not affect the probability of fusion of male and female gametes, fertilization is said to be a random event.

Each of the homologous pair of chromosome aligns itself independently of the other pairs on cells' equator during metaphase I. This independent orientation of homologous pairs during metaphase I lead to independent segregation of paternal and maternal chromosomes of each homologous pair during anaphase I. So, gametes with various combinations of paternal and maternal chromosomes are formed.

Exchange of genetic material between non-sister chromatids of homologous pair 18 represents crossing over. It leads to shuffling of an allele from the paternal chromosome 18 to the maternal chromosome 18.

What are somethings that cause mutations in cancer
dmitriy555 [2]

Answer:

mutations cause most cases of cancer. Some acquired mutations can be caused by things that we are exposed to in our environment, including cigarette smoke, radiation, hormones, and diet. Other mutations have no clear cause, and seem to occur randomly as the cells divide.

Answer:

The correct order would be

  • Glucose
  • ATP→ADP
  • H₂O
  • Pyruvate
  • CO₂

Explanation:

Following reactions occur in Glycolysis and Kreb's Cycle

  1. Phosphorylation of Glucose- In the first step of glycolysis, Glucose is converted into Glucose-6-Phosphate using 1 ATP molecule by Hexokinase enzyme. One phosphate group from ATP is attached to glucose by the enzyme, thus forming ADP.
  2. Dehydration- In the ninth step of Glycolysis, each of two molecules of  2-Phosphoglycerate are converted to Phosphoenol Pyruvate, by Enolase enzyme, releasing two H₂O molecules.
  3. Formation of Pyruvate- In the last or tenth step of Glycolysis, each of two molecules of Phosphoenol Pyruvate are converted to Pyrutave using an ATP by the enzyme Pyruvate Kinase.
  4. Oxidation Of Pyruvate to Acetyl-CoA- Before the Kreb's Cycle starts, the Pyruvate molecule obtained from the Glycolysis undergoes oxidative decarboxylation producing Acetyl-CoA and release of CO₂ and NADH.
