If a cell with 42 chromosomes undergoes mitosis, how many chromosomes will each daughter cell have?

Biology
1 answer:
evablogger [386]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

42

Explanation:

If a cell has 42 pairs of chromosomes (n = 42), it has 84 chromosomes (2n = 84). At the end of mitosis, the two daughter cells will be exact copies of the original cell. Each daughter cell will have 84 chromosomes. At the end of meiosis II, each cell (i.e., gamete) would have half the original number of chromosomes, that is, 42 chromosomes.

A simple example is↓

The parent cell of 10 chromosomes will end up becoming two daughter cells that each have a copy of those 10 chromosomes.

The important fact about mitosis is that the daughter cells are identical to the parent cell. The daughter cells will have the same number of chromosomes as the parent cell.

<h3>What is seaweed is good for?</h3>

The use of seaweed as a component in food is becoming more widespread. The best nutritional source of iron, which supports the thyroid gland, is in this food. It also contains antioxidants that shield your cells from oxidative stress, along with additional minerals and vitamins like vitamin K, B vitamins, zinc, and iron.

<h3>Which seaweed is healthiest?</h3>

Iodine, which supports healthy thyroid function, can be found in red seaweeds. Additionally, they contain heme copper (a form of iron that can actually prevent iron-deficiency anemia).

A desert plant called Kalanchoe can reproduce, either with sexual reproduction through flowers, or asexually by budding off mini
AnnyKZ [126]

Answer:

The correct answer will be- will be called "Clones" with no genetic variation thus result in less adaptability to environment.

Explanation:

Plants can reproduce by both modes of reproduction called asexual and sexual reproduction.   The asexual mode of reproduction produces genetically similar offsprings in less period of time and thus helps in spreading of the species in minimum time as in the case of Kalanchoe.

The Kalanchoe can dominate a large area of the habitat using this mode of reproduction but at the cost of genetic variation.  

Since asexual reproduction results in Clones with same genetic material so the descendants of the plant will be less adaptive to changing the environment as asexual reproduction does not involve genes.

How do metabolic pathways keep from reaching equilibrium?
wlad13 [49]

Answer:

The metabolic chemical reaction is reversible, and they too would attain equilibrium if they take place in a test tube separately. However, if a cell attains metabolic equilibrium it is considered as dead. Thus, a cell in the body is not in equilibrium.  

The spontaneous flow of substances within and outside of the cell prevents the metabolic pathways from attaining an equilibrium, and the cell persists to perform the work all through its life. This principle is demonstrated by the open hydroelectric system.
