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.

Vinvika [58]
The mother may feel guilty about her child's condition because she may think that the child had that disease genetically from one or both of his or her parents. The mother may exhibit signs of self-blaming because she feels like it is her fault that her child is suffering from the disease. The healthcare practitioner should approach the mother in a biopsychosocial approach wherein the mother is allowed to vent out (catharsis), then the healthcare practitioner should make things clearer (educate), and then have the appropriate action given.

No, because it still codes for valine in this case, but if another nucleotide was changed such as GCA it would code for alanine instead.

Researchers want to use edna to look for an invasive species in a waterway. which of these steps should they do last? a. precipi
VikaD [51]

The step at which the researchers would do at the end of researching Edna is to amplify the amount of DNA.

Option (d);

<u>EXPLANATION:</u>

  • The term EDNA means Environmental DNA.
  • Invasive species in the waterway are the waterborne plants and animals who can likely cause effects to the human as well as the environment.
  • If researchers want to use eDNA to look for invasive species in the waterway, they will first collect a sample.
  • After cutting DNA into pieces, DNA would be precipitated in each sample.
  • And in the end, the amount of DNA would be amplified in each sample to understand how it would cause harm to the environment.

Identify which property of water cohesion, adhesion, or heat capacity applies to each observation below.
olga nikolaevna [1]

4. Large, circular lily pads are able to float on the water's surface.

Answer: cohesion

Cohesion mean that water attracted to another water. This force will make the water to form a surface tension in the lake. Water lily has a wide and thin leaf which makes it giving a low force per area. If the force applied on the surface is not bigger than surface tension, the leaf will stay float above the water. Surface tension also the reason water spider could walk on water.


5. The temperature of the water is about 5°C, while the temperature of the air is about 21°C.

Answer: heat capacity

Water has high heat capacity. High heat capacity mean that the water will not be easily become cold or hot. It will need more energy to increase/decrease the temperature of the water. This is why the water could keep its temperature much lower than the atmosphere. This will protect the organism inside the water from an extreme temperature change.
