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.

Answer:

The problem will be because:

  • <u>The error in the construction of the bridge will be actually 40 cm</u>.

Explanation:

When you, as an engineer, listen about a scale 1/20, it means that for each 1 cm in the model, it will be 20 cm in the real footbridge (20 times upper to the scale model), then how the error in the model is 2 cm, the real error is 40 cm, in this case, imagine that you didn't know that the bridge will have an error of 40 cm, which is approximately 1,31 ft, <em><u>from a side of the bridge you begin with the correct measure, and the other side you use the measure with the error of the 40 cm, the result is that when you going to finish the bridge in the center, this won't match, making more expenses to correct that big error</u></em>.

Antibiotic resistance in bacteria is the result of
Natalija [7]
C. Genetic variation

Bacteria are very numerous,  and random mutation of bacterial DNA generates a wide variety of change, including resistance. It happens through mutation and selection. Not only are they capable of sharing genetic bits of DNA to related and unrealted species they can develop ways to remove the antibiotic before it reaches its intended area via biochemical pumps or enzymes to inactiavte the antibiotic.

Why is the karyotype for people with Turner syndrome written as 45XO
Kryger [21]

The number 45 means that the subject has 44 normal autosomal chromosomes (22 chromosomes pairs) plus one (1) good sex chromosome (out of the normal homologous pair). The X0 means that the subject, usually a female, lacks one sister chromosome of the homologous X chromosome pair, or has a partial X sister chromosome.

How are protists classified/grouped
Lesechka [4]

Answer:

Protists were traditionally subdivided into several groups based on their physical similarities to the "higher" kingdoms of Animals, Plants, and Fungi. For example, the unicellular, “animal-like” protozoa, the “plant-like” algae, and the “fungus-like” slime molds and water molds are all protists.
