The hemi
metabolism<span> indicates the three distinct
stages of the life cycle of some insects: the egg, nymph, and the adult stage,
or imago. It has no pupal stage just like the complete metamorphosis that
undergoes pupal stage before turning into adult. Insects that undergo hemi metabolous metamorphosis go through gradual changes; develop from
eggs into nymphs sometimes called larvae by some entomologists, that are
similar in shape to the adults. You can
distinguish the nymphs from the adults by looking for wings. Wing buds
or wing pads may be present in late stage nymphs, but they are fixed in place
against the body and are non-functional compared to the adults whose wings are
fully developed. </span>
Answer: a vector
Explanation:
A Vector is a physical quantiy that has can magnitude and direction. Examples of vectors are Velocity, acceleration, force, momentum etc
Now, since velocity is defined as the displacement experienced by an object in a specified direction, it is therefore correct to call velocity a vector
Distance is the length of the path travelled
displacement is the shortest length of the path travelled
distance does not have direction, hence, it is a scalar quantity
displacement has direction, hence, it is a vector quantity
Answer:
C) production of sperm and eggs
Explanation:
Sperms and eggs are the male and female gametes respectively. Formation of sperms and egg cells require meiotic cell division. Meiosis in sperm mother cells and egg mother cells reduces the chromosome number of half in the sperms and eggs. Meiosis also adds new gene combinations in these gametes by the process of crossing over.
Mitosis cannot reduce the chromosome number to half in the sperms and eggs. Absence of crossing over in mitosis leads to the formation of genetically identical progeny cells from mitosis.
Hence, mitosis can not form sperms and egg cells. If it does, the sperms and egg cells would not have genetic variations and there would be doubling of chromosome number with each round of sexual reproduction.
