Which best describes the importance of mitosis to living organisms

Biology
1 answer:
tresset_1 [31]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

Mitosis is a process of cell division that leads into formation of two daughter cells that are genetically identical to each other and to the original cell. So this is greatly important to living organisms because Mitosis is a way of making more cells that are genetically the same as the parent cell. It plays an important part in the development of embryos, and it is important for the growth and development of our bodies as well. Mitosis produces new cells, and replaces cells that are old, lost or damaged.

Good Luck!!!

A recessive allele on the X chromosome is responsible for red-green color blindness in humans. A woman with normal vision whose
Igoryamba

Answer:

In a cross of a homozygous prevailing (AA) individual and a homozygous recessive(AA) person,  

a. on the off chance that they have a kid, what is the likelihood that the kid will be heterozygous?  

If you cross somebody who is homozygous predominant with one who is homozygous latent, the entirety of the posterity will be heterozygous (AA). Accordingly, there is a 100% possibility of delivering a posterity that is heterozygous.  

b. what is the likelihood that the youngster will be homozygous latent?  

There is no way of creating a kid that is homozygous passive. The entirety of the posterity will be heterozygous. In this way, the likelihood is zero.  

c. in the event that they have two kids, what is the likelihood of the first being homozygous prevailing and the second being homozygous passive?  

Again, this can't be determined, on the grounds that there is zero chance of delivering a posterity that is homozygous prevailing or homozygous passive. The likelihood is zero. In any case, for no reason in particular, suppose that the punnet square uncovered that there was 1/4 possibility of creating a kid that is homozygous passive. To decide the likelihood that the subsequent youngster will likewise be homozygous passive, you complete this straightforward duplication:  

1/4 x 1/4 = 1/16  

In this manner, there would be a 1/16 possibility of the subsequent kid being homozygous passive. In the event that you needed to discover the likelihood of the third kid being homozygous passive, you would do the accompanying:  

1/4 x 1/4 x 1/4 = 1/64  

Thus, there would be a 1/64 possibility of the third kid being homozygous latent. Once more, I was simply giving in model, yet it doesn't have any significant bearing right now, the entirety of the posterity will be heterozygous.  

Another question...A latent allele on the X chromosome is answerable for red-green visual weakness in people. A typical lady whose father is visually challenged weds a partially blind man. What is the likelihood that this couples child will be visually challenged?  

XX = female  

XY = male  

Let C = typical vision (predominant)  

Let c = red-green visual weakness (latent)  

A typical lady what father's identity is' partially blind must be a transporter, or heterozygous. This implies she acquired the ordinary allele from her mom and the visually challenged allele from her dad.  

Genotypes:  

Ordinary lady - Xc  

Partially blind man - Xc Y  

On the off chance that these two mate, here are the accompanying prospects:  

half of the female posterity will be bearers with ordinary vision (Xc)  

half of the female posterity will be homozygous passive and partially blind (Xc)  

half of the male posterity will have typical vision (XC Y)  

half of the male posterity will be visually challenged (Xc Y)  

In this manner, the likelihood that the couple's child will be partially blind is half, or 1/2.  

Remark  

Sheryl's Avatar  

Sheryl addressed this Was this answer accommodating?  

XX= lady, XY=man  

Alleles:  

XC=normal; Xc=colorblind  

Typical Genotypes:  

XC (typical lady)  

Xc (typical lady, yet bearer)  

Xc (visually challenged lady)  

XC Y (typical man)  

Xc Y (visually challenged man)  

Lady has typical vision, yet her dad is visually challenged. In this way, she needed to get XC from her mother (must have one, she's ordinary) and Xc from her father (it was everything he could give her): Xc  

Man is visually challenged: Xc Y  

Xc Y  

XC Y  

Xc Y

Is it true that ocean biomes contain a wider biodiversity than land biomes why or why not?
EastWind [94]
The difficulty with this answer, lies in the fact that not all of land and ocean biomes have been completely explored. The ocean is vast, covering approximately 70% of the Earth's surface, with literally vertical miles or kilometers of depth, and with some areas with sparse to no biodiversity. The same can be said about certain areas of large deserts with very low levels of biodversity, void of life, like vast deserts of the Sahara or Gobi. But, the Amazon rain forest contains still unknown species of plant and animal life, just like the ocean. Because of its vastness, intellectually, I would say  the ocean contains more biodiversity, but the answer is scientifically, as of now, yet to be proven one way or the other.

Interesting facts about rainforest biome
otez555 [7]

1. Rainforests only cover around 2 percent the total surface area of the Earth, but really about 50 percent of the plants and animals on the earth live in the rainforest.

2. There are two different types of rainforests, and they include both temperate and tropical. The tropical rainforests are the ones that are most commonly found around the world.

3. A fifth of our fresh water is found in tropical rainforests, the Amazon Basin to be exact.

4.  Within four square miles of tropical rainforest, you will find 1500 flowering plant species, 750 types of trees, and many of these plants can be helpful in combating cancer.

5. Rainforests are threatened each and every day, especially by practices such as agriculture, ranching, logging and mining.

Hope this helps!
