Answer: SPORES are defined as haploid (1n) cells which develops into gametophytes.
Gametophytes inturn produce either haploid (1n) male or females GAMETES that can fuse to form diploid ZYGOTES.
This basically explains what goes on in Meiosis.
An ionic bond can be formed after two or more atoms loss or gain electrons to form an ion. Ionic bonds occur between metals, losing electrons, and nonmetals, gaining electrons. Ions with opposite charges will attract one another creating an ionic bond.
Answer:
Tight junctions - prevent liquid from seeping between cells
Desmosomes - act as rivets to hold adjacent cells together when epithelial tissue moves
Gap junctions - allow movement of cytosol, ions, and small molecules between animal cells
Plasmodesmata - openings through the cell walls of plant cells that allow adjacent cells to share materials
Explanation:
1) Tight junctions are one of the cell junctions found in animal cells. Tight junctions function to prevent the flow of liquid materials between cells.
2) Desmosomes are another type of cell junctions whose function is to form a connection between two adjacent cells. The structure formed by this connection confers strength upon the tissues involved.
3) Gap junctions are the most commonly found cell junctions found in animal cells that connects adjacent cells allowing the passage of cytosol, ions and other small molecules in them from one adjacent cell to another.
4) Plasmodesmata is a cell junction found in plant cells. They are small openings lying across the cell wall of plant cells whose function is to connect the cells and facilitate the movement of materials from one cell to another.
Answer:
Option 3, of the abiotic factors found in their environment
Explanation:
The abiotic factors such as absence of sunlight and extremely cold temperature represents picture of an extreme habitat under an ice shelf in Antarctica.
The optimum temperature requirements of bacteria for its survival ranges from 10oC to 20oC. In case, if a bacteria lives in an environment where temperature is less than -5oC or higher than 50oC, then such habitats are considered to be “habitats with extremities” as special physiological mechanisms are required to maintain the homeostasis and survive.
Likewise absence of sunlight further adds to the extremities of the habitat.
Option 3, is correct
