RUDIKE [14]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

A. meiosis.

Explanation:

Meiosis is one of the two major types of cell divisions in living organisms. Meiosis is the process by which four daughter cells that are genetically different from the parent cell are produced. Meiotic process is carried out solely during sexual reproduction to yield gametes or sex cells.

The gametes have their chromosomal number reduced by half during the process. However, one immense importance of meiosis is that it PROMOTES GENETIC DIVERSITY. A process called crossing over, which is the exchange of chromosomal segment between non sister chromatids, makes this possible.

What type of energy powers the cell growht
77julia77 [94]
Complex organic food molecules such as sugars, fats, and proteins are rich sources of energy for cells because much of the energy used to form these molecules is literally stored within the chemical bonds that hold them together. Scientists can measure the amount of energy stored in foods using a device called a bomb calorimeter. With this technique, food is placed inside the calorimeter and heated until it burns. The excess heat released by the reaction is directly proportional to the amount of energy contained in the food.

Answer:

The grasshopper doesn't have to use it circulatory system to carry gases to and from the grasshopper cells because the air that is passed through the trachea system is already close enough to get to the cells.

Explanation:

"In the grasshopper, exchange of oxygen and carbon dioxide occurs in the tracheal system. Hemolymph plays no part in the process. There is not even an oxygen-carrying pigment in insect hemolymph." - www.biology-pages.info

Which of these planets has water ice near its poles?
sergejj [24]

Answer:

Mars

Explanation:

The Deep Freeze: Ice on Mars. Like Earth, Mars has ice caps at its poles. Water reaches the poles as vapor and is frozen into thin layers that build up thick deposits. Mixed with this water is dust picked up by the wind, so the caps have bright and dark layers of "clean" and "dirty" ice.
