Answer:

MEIOSIS:

- Each replicated chromosome pairs with its corresponding homologous chromosome

- Tetrads form and crossing over sometimes occur

- Paired homologous chromosome line up across the center of the cell.

- Four haploid daughter cells form that are not identical to the parent cell

MITOSIS:

- Homologous chromosomes do not pair

- One row of chromosomes line up at the center of the cell.

- The cell nucleus divides only once

- Two diploid daughter cells form that are identical to the parent cell.

Explanation:

Mitosis and Meiosis are the two cellular divisions that occur in living organisms. Mitosis is the kind of cell division that produces two diploid daughter cells that are genetically identical to the parent cell while Meiosis produces four haploid daughter cells (gametes) that are genetically different from the parent cell.

Based on the general description of the two cell divisions above, the following events take place in them respectively:

1) MEIOSIS:

- Each replicated chromosome pairs with its corresponding homologous chromosome (similar but non-identical chromosome from each parent).

- Tetrads form and crossing over sometimes occur. Tetrads are the structures that form when two homologous chromosomes pair while crossing over is the exchange of chromosome segment between two non-sister chromatids of homologous chromosomes. These two only occur during meiosis.

- Paired homologous chromosome line up across the center of the cell during metaphase I of meiosis.

- Four haploid daughter cells form that are not identical to the parent cell. Note that meiosis reduces the chromosomal number of the parent cell by half.

2) MITOSIS:

- Homologous chromosomes do not pair during mitosis.

- One row of replicated chromosomes (sister chromatids) line up at the center of the cell during metaphase.

- The cell nucleus divides only once in mitosis as opposed to twice during meiosis.

- Two diploid daughter cells form that are identical to the parent cell. Note that mitosis retains the chromosomal number of the parent cell.

kirza4 [7]

The two principal types of connective tissue in a muscle are collagen and myofibrils. The entire muscle is wrapped in collagen to form a fascicle. Looking at one muscle fiber, you will see that almost the entire cross section of the muscle fiber is composed of long, cylindrical strands of proteins called myofibrils<span>. </span>

According to weber's law, the size of _____ is a constant proportion of the size of the initial stimulus. question 1 options: 1)
Damm [24]

According to Weber's law, the size of a just noticeable difference or difference is a constant proportion of the size of the initial stimulus.

Explanation: Weber’s law is a principle that describes that for two stimuli to be perceived as different, the stimuli should differ by a minimum constant percentage and not by a constant amount.

For example: in a noisy room it is required to shout in order to be heard in contrast a whisper can be heard in quiet room. For us to be aware consciously 50% of the time the minimum stimulation required for any stimuli.

The absolute threshold for difference between the two stimuli of any individual may vary and depends on the strength of the signal apart from the experience, alertness, expectation and motivation.

The individual’s difference threshold also known as just noticeable difference is the difference between two stimuli half of the time that we can distinguish.

Why the loss of biodiversity is a terrible global calamity?
kicyunya [14]

Answer:

Biodiversity includes diversity within species (genetic diversity), between species (species diversity), and between ecosystems (ecosystem diversity). ... Biodiversity loss disrupts the functioning of ecosystems, making them more vulnerable to perturbations and less able to supply humans with needed services.
