Answer:

Cells with similar structures and a common purpose that are organized form a tissue (option D).

Explanation:

Biological tissues are structures originated by the grouping of differentiated cells, which are organized and distributed in such a way that they can fulfill a function in a coordinated way. A characteristic of tissues is that all the cells that constitute them have the same embryonic origin.

An example of a tissue is nervous tissue, formed by neurons, specialized cells that when united form it and fulfill the same function.

The functions of cells are mainly multiplication, development and differentiation, in addition to their ability to group together to form tissues.

The other options are not correct because:

A. Organs are formed from differentiated tissue.

B and C. Digestion and circulation are functions that depend on the organs of the digestive and circulatory systems, respectively.

Which structure is directly correlated with the production of genetic variability in the daughter cells produced during meiosis?

Lina20 [59]

Answer:

Chiasma

Explanation:

During meiosis, more precisely, prophase 1 homologous chromosomes connect in a process known as synapsis and form tetrad structure (four chromatides). Non-sister chromatids mayrecombine with their homologous partner which is known as crossing over, the process in which genetic variabilty is produced. These non-sister chromatids remain physically connected at the points of exchange known as chiasmata.
