Answer:

A

Explanation:

The correct answer would be that <u>the spores inherit half of their genes from each parent.</u>

<em>The ascospores start their journey through the fusion of 2 haploid nuclei (karyogamy) to form a diploid zygote nucleus. The zygote nucleus develops and then divides by meiosis to produce 4 haploid daughter cells. Each daughter cell then divides mitotically, making it eight haploid nuclei at the end.</em>

Hence, each spore inherits half of its gene from different nuclei.

The correct option is A.

Cytokinesis in animal cells involves: a) Alignment of the spindle along the equatorial plane. b) Formation of a cleavage furrow.
hjlf

Answer:

The correct answer will be options-B and D

Explanation:

Cytokinesis is the process of cell division which divides the cellular components along with the nuclear component. The cytokinesis takes place after the completion of M-phase which differs in both animal and plant cell.

In an animal cell, the cytokinesis begins by the formation of furrow which eventually pinches off to two cells.

The formation of the furrow is a complex process and requires the microtubules like an actin-myosin ring which gets established in which the actin filaments from the ring. The myosin filaments pull the actin filaments and then forms the ring.

Thus, options-B and D are the correct answer.
