Answer:

The spindle fibre is necessary to separate the sister chromatids into opposite sides of the cell.

Please find detailed explanation below

Explanation:

Mitosis is the cell division that produces two daughter cells that are genetically identical to the parent cell. Mitosis occurs in stages viz: prophase, metaphase, anaphase and telophase. The replicated chromosome, aligns at the centre of the cell in the METAPHASE stage and separates into opposite poles in the ANAPHASE stage.

This alignment (at the equator) and separation into opposite pole is possible with the aid of a structure called SPINDLE FIBRES. Spindle is a structure formed from microtubules, which attach to the kinetochores (located in the centromere) of each replicated chromosome to separate them from one another. Hence, the purpose of the spindle fibre during mitotic division is to separate the GENETIC MATERIAL of a parent cell into two daughter cells.

miss Akunina [59]

Answer:

The allele frequencies of both populations are likely to be similar.

Explanation:

An allele is a variant form of a given gene. Sometimes different alleles can cause variations in the observable characteristics of the species examined.

In the option given the chance that alleles are similar is very high because both populations exchange migrants very frequently and at a high rate so the genes of both populations are mixed very often.

I hope this answer helps you.

Snowcat [4.5K]

Answer:

1. Protein - build lean muscle and strengthen tendons

2. Lipids - insulation and long-term energy

3. Carbohydrates - provides quick, easily digested energy

4. Nucleic Acids - repair and replicate DNA and RNA

Explanation:

a. Think of protein as what helps your muscles grow and strengthen

b. Think of lipids as fats (blubber, the extra fat, helps insulate seals from the cold)

c. carbohydrates are found in starch and bread products, and are used to help build up energy prior to marathons.

d. nucleic acids -  think of nucleus; it is where genetic material is located, and also where DNA and RNA is located.

Alik [6]

Answer:

Denaturing – when the double-stranded template DNA is heated to separate it into two single strands. Annealing – when the temperature is lowered to enable the DNA primers to attach to the template DNA. Extending – when the temperature is raised and the new strand of DNA is made by the Taq polymerase enzyme

Where does the heating process begin in a hot water heater system?
mote1985 [20]

Answer: Dip tube. This tube, located at the top of the tank, serves as the entry point for water as it flows into the tank. The water then travels to the bottom of the tank, to the area known as the combustion chamber, where the heating process begins.
