Answer: The question is not complete, here are the options.
Which statements best describe this scenario? Check all that apply.
A. The potato plant is parasitic.
B. The dodder plant is parasitic.
C. The potato plant will grow stronger.
D.The potato plant stays alive because of
E. The dodder plant stays alive because of the potato plant.
The correct options are A and E.
Explanation:
This is because dodder plant is a parasitic plants that survive and live on the host plants there by causing harm or destroying the host because it survive on the resources needed for the host survival. Dodder plants twine around the potatoes and obtain nutrients and water from the potatoes through it root system.
Aneuploidy can result in the final daughter cell if the spindle fibers fail to pull a chromosome toward the pole as in case of non-disjunction.
Explanation:
Aneuploidy is a condition which arises when one or more chromosome is missing in the final daughter cells.
Non-disjunction refers to the failure of chromosomal or chromatid segregation or separation during cell division. This results in erroneous meiosis or mitosis leading to the formation of final daughter cells or gametes with an extra or missing chromosome. This condition is aneuploidy.
Failure of separation or segregation of:
- Homologous chromosomes occur in Anaphase I, affects four daughter cells.
- Sister chromatids during Anaphase II, affects two daughter cells
This failure of separation leads to aneuploidy chromosomal abnormalities like monosomy, trisomy, etc which can cause diseases like Down’s syndrome, Turner’s syndrome etc.
