Biology
1 answer:
Mariulka [41]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

B

Explanation:

Meiosis produces gametes that contain one complete haploid set of chromosomes

Meiosis is a reduction division, where the number of chromosomes in the daughter cells is reduced to half as compared to the parent cell. This set of chromosomes is called a haploid set or genome. The reduction from diploid to haploid occurs during Anaphase I of meiosis I, where homologous chromosomes separate and enter into two different cells. Meiosis takes place only in reproductive cells that divide to form gametes

So, the correct answer is 'Meiosis produces gametes that contain one complete haploid set of chromosomes'

hope that helps

Viruses could pass through bacterial filter which made belief that viruses are fluid.

<h3><u>Explanation</u>:</h3>

Contagium vivum fluidum is the term that was used by the scientists to describe the virus. The virus was first discovered by the scientist Beijernick who isolated the tobacco mosaic virus and as the tried to filter and separate the virus through the finest of the filters possible, he couldn't. So he said that virus are fluid in nature. Later Ivanovsky also gave the same postulate. He crystallized the virus too.

But only after the invention of electron microscope, the structure and composition of virus were completely known.

The Trans-Pecos ecoregion in the western portion of Texas
olga nikolaevna [1]

Answer:

3.Flood

Explanation:

Flood is the catastrophic event which is the main cause of the most weathering and erosion in the  least amount of time in this ecoregion because there is no vegetation present in this region and the soil is vulnerable for erosion. Flash-flooding and rapid runoff are agents of erosion in the Trans-Pecos ecoregion of Texas whenever the rainfall occurs. Vegetative is very important for preventing soil erosion so the people of this region has to stop overgrazing in this area in order to avoid more erosion of the soil.

m_a_m_a [10]

Answer:

Lysosomes

Explanation:

 Tay-sachs disease is a rare Autosomal recessive disease that causes neurodegenerative disorder.

Deficiency of  an enzyme Hexosaminidase A results in excessive accumulation of gangliosides (sialic acid containing glycosphingolipids) in the brain and nerve cells.

It is a lysosomal storage disease .Absence of  the enzyme Hexosaminidase A ,that breakdowns substance like fats results in accumulation of such substance in the lysosomes.Too much accumulation of fats in the lysosomes destroy the cell.

(I NEED THIS ASAP PLEASE) How are the processes of meiosis I and meiosis II different?
Brrunno [24]

In meiosis I, homologous chromosomes separate, while in meiosis II, sister chromatids separate. Meiosis II produces 4 haploid daughter cells, whereas meiosis I produces 2 diploid daughter cells. Genetic recombination (crossing over) only occurs in meiosis I. D
