<u>Answer</u>: Bacteria through the nucleoid (number 5).
<u>Explanation</u>:
Both paramecium and bacteria are single celled organisms. However, they differ by the fact that the first one is an eukaryote and the second one a prokaryote.
Furthermore, they differ in their capacity to mutate and adapt to environmental changes. Bacteria have a simple internal structure that lacks any organelles and are very adept at adapting to environmental changes. Besides their capacity for high mutation rates, they are also capable of picking up genetic information from their environment through a process called <em>transformation</em>.
Through transofrmation, environmental DNA enter the living bacteria through its cell membrane. Double stranded DNA will have one strand dissolved through hydrolysis, whereas the second strand may recombine with the bacterial <em>chromosome (nucleoid)</em>. Thus, this new genetic material will become incorporated into the bacterium's genome.
Answer:
1. 20 chromosomes
2. 10 chromosomes
3. 10 chromosomes
Explanation:
1. The process of mitosis results in the two daughter cells from the same parental cell with exactly the same genetic material. Thus the two cells contain the same number of chromosomes as the parent cell. Therefore if a cell with 20 chromosomes undergoes mitosis will result in the 20 chromosomes.
2. During meiosis I two daughter cells are formed with different ploidy levels as the number of the chromosome reduces to half. Therefore the cell with 20 chromosomes results in two cells with 10 chromosomes.
3. During meiosis II, the two daughter cells formed from meiosis I result in the formation of two more daughter cells with an exact number of chromosome number that is 10 chromosomes.
Answer:
