Cells with a full set of chromosomes are referred to as diploid or 2n, whereas cells with half the chromosomes are haploid or n.

At which stage(s) of meiosis I are the cells diploid and at which stage(s) are they haploid

Answer:

  • Diploid → Prophase, metaphase, and anaphase
  • Haploid → Telophase

Explanation:

During prophase I,  chromosomes get condensed. Each of the chromosomes gets in pair with its homologous one. They do so to make the crossing-over possible, a stage where they interchange their parts → 2n

During metaphase I, each of the homologous pairs is driven to the equatorial plane, where they randomly line up → 2n

During anaphase I, occurs the independent separation of homologous chromosomes that migrate to opposite poles of the cell. This separation generates different chromosomal combinations in the daughter cells. There are two alternatives per homologous pair → 2n  

In telophase I, half of the chromosomes are already in one of the poles, while the other half is on the other pole. Each group of chromosomes has now half the number of the original cell. The nuclear membrane forms again in each pole → n

Finally, occurs cytokinesis, which involves the invagination of the cell membrane and cytoplasmic division.

The two new cells are ready for meiosis II.

Which of the following are characteristics of archaeal cell membranes that probably help them survive at very high temperatures?
torisob [31]

Answer:

Option-B, C and E

Explanation:

Archaebacteria are a group of prokaryotes which can survive the extreme conditions. The archaebacteria which can survive very high temperature are called hyperthermophiles. The hyperthermophilic bacteria can survive temperature range between 70 t 125 °C observed in hydrothermal vents.

The archaea bacteria can withstand the high temperature as their membrane is adaptive. The membrane of the archaea is more stable due to the ether linkage which makes carbon less chemically reactive. The phospholipids possess a monolayer which decreases the layer fluidity and thus the unwanted movement of molecules.

The archaea also contain cyclopentane rings in the ester-linked phospholipids which allows tight pacing of the molecules which decrease the movement of solute into and out of the cell.

Thus, the selected options are correct.

What is the difference between mitosis, and meiosis?
nataly862011 [7]

Answer:

Mitosis involves the division of body cells, while meiosis involves the division of sex cells. ... Two daughter cells are produced after mitosis and cytoplasmic division, while four daughter cells are produced after meiosis. Daughter cells resulting from mitosis are diploid, while those resulting from meiosis are haploid
