A biologist examines a series of cells and counts 160 cells in interphase, 20 cells in prophase, 6 cells in prometaphase, 2 cell

s in metaphase, 7 cells in anaphase, and 5 cells in telophase. The complete cell cycle requires 24 hours. Match the average duration to the appropriate cell cycle stage in these cells. M phase prophase metaphase telophase 4.8 hours 14.4 minutes 2.4 hours 36 minutes

Answer:

M phase: 4.8 hr

Prophase: 2.4 hr

Prometaphase: 0.72 hr

Metaphase: 0.24 hr

Anaphase: 0.84 hr

Telophase: 0.6 hr

Explanation:

Mitosis, also known as M phase, is the process of nuclear division after interphase, which is followed by cytoplasmic division via cytokinesis. Mitosis can be subdivided into the following phases: Prophase,  Prometaphase, Metaphase, Anaphase, and Telophase. In this case, 160 cells are in interphase (for a total of 200 cells), thereby 40 cells are in mitosis >> 200 - 160 = 40 cells. Since the complete cell cycle requires 24 hours, it is possible to calculate the average duration of each phase:

M phase: 40/200 = 0.2 x 24 hr = 4.8 hr

Prophase: 20/200 = 0.1 x 24 hr = 2.4 hr

Prometaphase: 6/200 = 0.030 x 24 hr = 0.72 hr

Metaphase: 2/200 = 0.01 x 24 hr = 0.24 hr

Anaphase: 7/200 = 0.035 x 24 hr = 0.84 hr

Telophase: 5/200 = 0.025 x 24 hr = 0.6 hr

Explain how the taiga is different from the other forest ecosystems.
serg [7]

Taiga is a winter type forest. Taiga is different then other ecosystems because other ecosystems are not has cold has Taiga. Taiga ecosystems can get has low has -70 °F (or -60° C)

But Taiga ecosystems can get has hot has 104°F (or 40°C)

Taiga ecosystems can get colder then tundra (which is another very cold too)

Some things that make the Taiga ecosystems unique is:

  1. Evergreen trees, the Taiga is COVERED with these.

Hope this helps!

What are the two supporting evidence of seafloor spreading theory?
sladkih [1.3K]

Answer: Several types of evidence supported Hess's theory of sea-floor spreading: eruptions of molten material, magnetic stripes in the rock of the ocean floor, and the ages of the rocks themselves. This evidence led scientists to look again at Wegener's hypothesis of continental drift.

N a jungle habitat, there lives a species of snake, called Species A. The carrying capacity of the jungle allows 5000 of Species
OLEGan [10]

Based on the carrying capacity of the habitat and the changes that occurred in number of the two snake species, correct option is They occupy the same niche and are competing fully for all resources; option D

<h3>What is carrying capacity of a habitat?</h3>

The carrying capacity of a habitat is the maximum number of species the available resources in that habitat can sustain.

The data given of the species of snakes, Species A and Species B, indicate that they are both present in the habitat after a change occurs in the habitat.

Since the population of Species A became zero after Species B was introduced in the habitat, they occupy the same niche and are competing fully for all resources.

In conclusion, the competition between the species of snakes is responsible for the decline in Species A.

kolezko [41]

Answer:

  • Random dispersion occurs with dandelion and other plants that have wind-dispersed seeds that germinate wherever they happen to fall in a favorable environment.
  • Clumped dispersion is seen in plants that drop their seeds straight to the ground, such as oak trees, or animals that live in groups, such as schools of fish or herds of elephants.
  • Clumped dispersions may also result from habitat heterogeneity. If favorable conditions are localized, organisms will tend to clump around those, such as lions around a watering hole.
