<span>Notice that diploid cells which 18 are the complete number of chromosome pair of the organism. This usually happens under cell divison –mitosis which process of replicating oneself to produce another like cell. Meiosis occurs in gametes, sex cells. Their respectively called spermatogenesis (sperm cells) and oogenesis (egg cells). These cell division –meiosis produces haploid cells, in which in words “half” from the complete cell chromosome number, hence, these </span>haploid cells<span> only produce half number or one set of chromosome (9) instead of the complete pair which in this case, 18.<span>

The property of a solid which is shared with liquid but not with gas is that both have definite volume.
Because they interfere witht he natural cycling of elements.
An example is crop harvesting. The practice of removing part or all of the crops grown from the soil accelerates the loss of nutrients from the soil. The cycling of nutrients from plant uptake and release is interrupted by crop removal.
Hope this helps!
