Explain how mutations in gametes may result in phenotypic changes in offspring.

a) it is NOT true becasue although the research show that is more likely to get lung cancer for smokers, it DOES NOT show that all smokers get cancer.

b) it is NOT true becasue altough it is very possible that smoking contributes to lung cancer, the research DOES NOT prove that smoking is the cause of lung cancer, it only indicates a relationship between smoking and lung cancer that is evidence that smoking contributes to lung cancer but it is not irrefutable proof.

c) it is NOT true becasue the research finds a relationship between lung cancer and smoking, but it is not focused in explaining smoking predispositionon. It does not investigate predispositions in people to smoke.

The video compares the key similarities and differences between mitosis and meiosis. Determine which events occur in mitosis, me

notka56 [123]

Answer:

Mitosis:

A single division occurs, separating sister chromatids

End result is two diploid cells that are genetically identical to each other and the parent cell

Meiosis:

The first division separates homologous pairs; the second division separates sister chromatids

Homologous chromosomes pair up and form chiasmata

Homologous pairs of chromosomes line up on the metaphase plate

Daughter cells contain recombinant chromosomes

End result is four haploid cells that are genetically different from each other and the parent cell

Mitosis and Meiosis:

Chromosomes duplicate during interphase

Process starts with a diploid cell

Duplicated chromosomes line up Individually on the metaphase plate in a diploid cell

Explanation:

Mitosis is the division of vegetative cells while meiosis involves the division of sex cells. Both divisions start with diploid parental cells but while the daughter cells in mitosis are also diploid, those of meiosis are haploid. This is why mitosis is referred to as equational division while meiosis is known as reductional division.

A cell that will undergo mitosis or meiosis would first have its genetic materials duplicated during interphase in addition to the synthesis of other important biochemicals such as proteins. Mitosis involves just a single division of the sister chromatids with two genetically identical daughter cells who are also clones of the parent cells resulting.

Meiosis, on the other hand, involves two divisions - the first one happens to separate homologous chromosome pairs while the second division separates sister chromatids just like in mitosis. During the early stage of meiosis, homologous chromosomes synapsed through the formation of a synaptonemal complex to form tetrads. Thereafter, synapsed chromosomes exchange chromosomal segments at a point known as chiasmata. All these happen at the prophase stage of meiosis I. The paired homologous chromosomes are then lined up at metaphase where they are engaged by the spindle fibers.

Meiosis II and mitosis are more or less the same with the chromosomes condensing at the prophase and the formation of metaphase plates at the metaphase. Sister chromatids are pulled apart and they migrate to the opposite poles at the anaphase and telophase.
