The plant on the right must have been the one given a saltwater mixture while the one on the left must have been given pure water.
<h3>Osmosis</h3>
Looking at the attached image closely, one would see that the plant on the right has withered leaves while the leaves of the plant on the left seem to be flourishing.
The plant on the right must have been the one fed with water mixed with salt and here is the reason. Adding water mixed with salt to the soil on which the plant grows will decrease the water potential of the soil relative to the water potential of the plant's root. Thus, water will move from the plant into the soil through the root by osmosis. This will cause the various cells of the plant to become flaccid, and hence, the withered leaves.
On the contrary, the plant on the left must have been fed with pure water. Feeding the soil with pure water will increase the water potential of the soil relative to the water potential of the plant's root. Thus, water will move from the soil into the plant through the root by osmosis. This will cause the various cells of the plant to become turgid, and hence, the flourishing leaves.

#SPJ1
Answer:
The answer is one cell.
Mitosis is a cell division of a single cell into two identical daughter cells. So, at the beginning of mitosis, there is only one cell. It will undergo different stages of mitosis (prophase, metaphase, anaphase, telophase and cytokinesis) which will result in the formation of two daughter cells that are identical to the mother cells.

Scientific theories are often so powerful because they have been tested several time by different peoples and they have been found to be true. A scientific theory is a well substantiated explanation for a specific phenomenon which has undergone many observations and experiments and has stand the test of time. Thus, scientific theories always have to be reckon with because they have been severally tested.
Answer:
Prophase 1
Explanation:
Prophase I :It can be divided into five stages:
1)Leplotene: In this stage, chromosome becomes visible and shorten as a single structure.
2)Zygotene: Homologous / sister chromosome pair up. This process is known as synapse. Synapse is the process of attachment of homologous /sister chromosome. One pair comes from the male parent while the other comes from the female parent.
3)Pachytene: Bivalents shorten.
4)Diplotene:Point of attachment of non-sister chromatids. The two chromosomes are seen to be joined at several points along their length. These points are known as Chiasmata.(Chiasmata, a cross). The paternal gene A, B, C may swap for the maternal gene a, b, c for instance, leading to a new gene combination in the resulting chromatids. This is referred to as *CROSSING OVER*.
5)Diakenesis: Homologous centromere move apart.
So, crossing over occurs in *Prophase 1.
Answer:
C
Explanation:
This is a monohybrid cross between involving a gene coding for earlobe. The allele for free earlobe (F) is dominant over that of attached earlobe (f).
N.B: let F represent the gene involved.
A genotypic ratio is the ratio derived from the offsprings based on the actual genetic make-up and not based on their phenotypic appearance as in phenotypic ratio.
A homozygous individual is an individual having the same kind of alleles for a gene while a heterozygous individual is one that has two different alleles i.e. combination of the dominant and recessive allele.
The monohybrid cross is between an individual with attached earlobe (ff) i.e. homozygous recessive individual. (Note that, a recessive trait will only be expressed in a homozygous state) and a heterozygous free earlobeb individual (Ff). (See attached picture). Ff × ff
The resulting four offsprings will
be expected to have only two distinct genotypes i.e heterozygous (Ff) and homozygous recessive (ff) in an equal ratio i.e. 2:2 ~ 1:1
