Answer: B. Increased surface runoff has increased water pollutants.

Explanation:

Trees provide a very valuable service in limiting the effects of surface runoff such as the reduction of soil erosion on account of trees holding the soil together with their roots. Their presence also reduces the actual surface runoff because they impede the path of the water.

With deforestation getting rid of trees, they would be unable to anchor the soil and reduce the movement of water which means that surface runoff will increase.

If a cell had 18 chromosomes, how many chromosomes would each daughter cell have after mitosis?
emmasim [6.3K]

If a cell has 18 chromosomes the daughter cells would have 18 chromosomes after mitosis.  

c. 18

<u>Explanation:</u>

Mitosis is the DNA replication process which maintains the number of chromosomes in daughter cells equal to number of chromosomes in parent cell. In the process the parent cell divides into two daughter cells having the same chromosome number as that of parent cell.

Meiosis is a process different from that of mitosis where each parent cell divides into four daughter cells having half the number of chromosomes present in the parent cell.  

Since sex cells have to be haploid in organisms like human beings, it is the process of meiosis that takes place in reproductive cells.
