Answer:
10 chromosomes/sister chromatids
Explanation:
Prophase is the first stage of cell division (mitosis). Prior to the cell entering the actual division stage, it undergoes a phase where it prepares its content and most importantly undergo the duplication of its genetic material (DNA). This DNA are found as chromosomes. It undergoes replication of its DNA in the S-phase of interphase stage.
Since Arabidopsis thaliana has 10 chromosomes, and each chromosome holds one DNA molecule, 10 molecules of DNA will be present in the mustard plant's genome. These 10 molecules of DNA will be replicated on another copy of chromosome which is identical to the template. This chromosomes are called SISTER chromatids i.e. replicated chromosome. Each sister chromatids are held together at the centromere and are considered one individual chromosome until they separate during anaphase stage.
Hence, at the Prophase stage, before separation, each sister chromatid (replicated chromosome) is considered as one chromosome. Thus, in the mustard plant with 10 chromosomes, it will possess 10 sister chromatids or chromosomes at the Prophase stage.
N.B: When sister chromatids separate during anaphase stage, they will be regarded as individual chromosomes.
Answer:
Frogs have smooth or slimy skin that is moist, whereas toads have thicker, bumpy skin that is usually dry. All toads are poisonous, while frogs are not.
Answer: Igneous rock forms between sedimentary layers.
This can definitely help in determining relative age because sedimentary rocks will be the older rock than igneous rock as igneous rock has formed between sedimentary rocks
Explanation:
Answer:
The plants provide food and accommodation in the form of food bodies and nectar as well as hollow thorns which can be used as nests. The ants return this favor by protecting the plants against herbivores
Explanation:
A) Net movement in osmosis is from areas of higher water concentration to areas of lower water concentration. Net movement in diffusion occurs from areas of higher solute concentration to areas of lower solute concentration.
This happens so that both solution have roughly the same concentration
