Answer:

Cells divide for the following reasons

1) Growth

2) reproduction

3) replace

4. Mitosis and meiosis

Explanation:

Living things are different from non-living things because living things grows, reproduce and also replace dead cells.

Mitosis is the process by which the body of living things makes new cells while meiosis refers to the process of creating cells like those of sperms and eggs. Living things grow in size, become taller, bigger and heaver while non living things does not.

In the term 2pq of the Hardy-Weinberg equation. Why is the multiplication by two necessary?
Gnesinka [82]

Answer:

The correct answer is : option B.

Explanation:

Hardy–Weinberg equilibrium is a mathematical model that states that genotype percentage or frequency in a population and allele in a population remains stable or constant to generations if there are no evolutionary influences present.

Hardy Weinberg equation is :

            P²+2pq+q² = 1

Here, p² represents the frequency of genotypes dominant homozygotes (AA) in a population in equilibrium. The term 2pq represents the frequency of heterozygotes (Aa)  as there are two ways of developing heterozygous individuals either dominant from the egg and recessive from sperm or vice versa. and the term q² represents the frequency of recessive homozygotes (aa).  

Thus, the correct answer is : option B.

One strand in a segment of a gene has the base sequence TGCTTA. What would be the complementary sequence of nucleotides found on
yarga [219]

The complementary sequence of nucleotides found on the other strand of DNA is <u>ACGAAT</u> when one strand in a segment of a gene has the base sequence TGCTTA.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Deoxyribonucleic acid is the one which carries the genetic information from the parent to the offspring.  During DNA replication one strand of DNA replicates to produce another strand.        

The DNA molecule have a anti-parallel structure and the two strands run in opposite direction. If in one strand in a segment of a gene has the base sequence TGCTTA the complementary sequence of nucleotides found on the other strand of DNA will be ACGAAT.

Write three observations that could help you identify a fish.
Alex
The three observations that could help an individual in distinguising whether the organism is a fish or not is that it should live under water as fish can't survive without water, another thing is that it should laid eggs when it comes to giving birth because when it does not lay eggs but produces a living organism normally without an egg, it is considered to be a mammal and lastly, the appearance it possess such as having gils or fins.
