Meiosis because it creates haploid cells or sex cells with only half of the normal number of chromosomes so that when the two sex cells are joined you get the normal number of chromosomes in your new organism.

Fofino [41]

Answer:  

If phospholipid bilayer diffusion is normally negligible, there will be tissues (largely lacking in transporters that may be expressed elsewhere) which, despite the relative functional similarity of their phospholipids, are very poor at taking up drugs: the blood–brain [33], blood–testis [34], and blood–retina

Prepare the egg cartons.  

Prepare “energy tokens.”  

 Post signs in the classroom.  

 Prepare filled H20 and C02 “molecules.”

Explanation:

Photosynthesis occurs in two stages. In the first stage, light-dependent reactions or light reactions capture the energy of light and use it to make the energy-storage molecules ATP and NADPH. During the second stage, the light-independent reactions use these products to capture and reduce carbon dioxide.

Anastaziya [24]

Answer:

The correct answer is included in the Explanation section

Explanation:

An organism with considerable more chromosomes than humans: the plant <em>Ophioglossum reticulatum</em> with 1260 chromosomes.

An organism with considerable fewer chromosomes than humans: the ant <em>Myrmecia pilosula</em> with 1 chromosome.

It might be thought that the chromosome number of a species is directly related to its complexity, meaning that an organism with a large number of chromosomes is more complex than an organism with a small number. However, this is not true. Chromosomes are structures of coiled DNA, and its number indicate how the cells wrapp their genomic material when they reproduce. The number of chromosomes is not related to the organism complexity, but rather the number of genes and their function.
