Which of the following accurately pairs the phase of the cell cycle with its primary purpose?
babunello [35]
According to a source, the answer is <u>A. M phase–Cell growth before DNA replication.</u><span>

Mitosis is the cell division that happens in all cells in the human body except sperm and egg cells. They produce diploid cells. Meiosis on the other hand is responsible for the cell division of the gametes, spermatogenesis (sperm cells) and oogenesis (egg cells), such haploid cells. Take for instance your integumentary system, layer of the skin in which your stratum basale always produces new epithelial cells (via mitosis) to take over until the outer layer, called stratum corneum (a continous replaced dead cells in this layer). </span>

Question 2: How and why did changes in the environmental conditions affect carrying capacity in this
Xelga [282]

Answer:

Changes occurs in the environmental conditions directly affect carrying capacity of the ecosystem.

Explanation:

Carrying capacity of the ecosystem refers to the capacity of the environment which adjust plants and animals in a specific atmospheric condition. Suppose in harsh winter, the temperature of the ecosystem is very low which is unbearable for most of the plant and animal species, so very low number of plants and animals are able to live in that environment. In the ecosystem where the winter is harsh and the spring is cold, the population of living organism are more decreasing. If the ecosystem has Harsh winter, Cold spring, and Hot summer, this type of environment hold very low number of living species due to high variation in the environment.

butalik [34]

Answer:

Transboundary

Explanation:

Transboundary refers to a highly contagious disease that has the potential to spread extremely rapid irrespective of national boundary. They cause high mobility and motility in the susceptible animals. An example of such diseases include Avian Influenza and the African Swine flu.

Zoonotic disease is disease that can be transmitted from animals to Humans example anthrax.

Exotic disease refers to a disease that does not normally occur in a particular region

Emerging diseases are those that have recently appeared and are cases are rapidly increasing.
