Complete the statement about genetic variation.

Biology
1 answer:
max2010maxim [7]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

1. Metaphase 1

2. Independent assortment

3. Crossing over

Explanation:

Meiosis is a kind of cell division that reduces the chromosome number of the parent cell by half. It only occurs during sexual reproduction and ensures genetic variation in sexually reproducing organisms.

Meiosis contributes to genetic variability when the chromosomes line up randomly at the cell plate during METAPHASE 1 of meiosis. This process of random alignment is called INDEPENDENT ASSORTMENT of genes. Generally, meiosis is able to ensure genetic variability due to a process called CROSSING OVER. Crossing over is a process whereby nonsister chromatids of homologous chromosomes exchanges/shuffles genetic contents.

The combined observations of Mattias Schleiden, Theodor Schwann and Rudolph Virchow resulted in the formation of the cell theory
alexandr402 [8]

Answer:

The question lacks options, the options are:

A) All cells contain a nucleus.

B) All cells come from other living cells

C) All living organisms are made of one or more cells.

D) Cells are the basic unit of structure and function of all living things.

The answer is A

Explanation:

In 1830's, three scientists named; Mattias Schleiden, Theodor Schwann and Rudolph Virchow contributed to describing the basic properties of the cell, which they proposed in their so named CELL THEORY. This widely accepted cell theory has three components:

All living organisms are made up of one or more cells.

Cells are the basic and fundamental unit of life

All existing cells come from cells that have previously existed.

It was not proposed that all cells have a nucleus

1. The plant life that is characteristic of a biome depends upon:
eimsori [14]

Answer:

D. all of the above​

Explanation:

Biome refers to a large and relatively distinct terrestrial region having similar climatic conditions regardless of where it occurs on Earth. The characteristic climatic conditions (temperature and precipitation being the most important ones) and soil type of each biome type determine the type of plant species found there. Therefore, each biome is characterized by specific flora.  

For example, a desert biome is a temperate or tropical biome characterized by a lack of precipitation, seasonal variations in temperature and poor soil type with low organic matter that limits plant growth. Desert biomes have only the plant species that can survive these harsh conditions.

Consider a cell in which Cl- distributes passively across the membrane according to the membrane potential. The resting membrane
UNO [17]

Answer:

1000 mM

Explanation:

Using V = -60 mV㏒₁₀[K/K'] where V = membrane potential = -60 mV, K = intracellular concentration = unknown and K' = extracellular concentration = 100 mM

So, V = -60 mV㏒₁₀[K/K']

-60  mV = -60 mV㏒₁₀[K/K']

dividing both sides by -60mV, we have

-60  mV/-60 mV = ㏒₁₀[K/K']

㏒₁₀[K/K'] = 1

taking antilogarithm of both sides, we have

[K/K']  = 10¹

multiplying both sides by K', we have

K = 10K'

K = 10 × 100 mM

K = 1000 mM

So, the intracellular Cl- concentration is 1000 mM
