Mitosis
Involves one cell division?
Results in two daughter cells
Results in diploid? daughter cells? (chromosome? number remains the same as parent cell)
Daughter cells are genetically identical
Occurs in all organisms except viruses
Creates all body cells (somatic?) apart from the germ cells? (eggs and sperm)
Prophase is much shorter
No recombination/crossing over occurs in prophase.
In metaphase individual chromosomes (pairs of chromatids) line up along the equator.
During anaphase the sister chromatids are separated to opposite poles.
Meiosis
Involves two successive cell divisions
Results in four daughter cells
Results in haploid? daughter cells (chromosome number is halved from the parent cell)
Daughter cells are genetically different
Occurs only in animals, plants and fungi
Creates germ cells (eggs and sperm) only
Prophase I takes much longer
Involves recombination/crossing over of chromosomes in prophase I
In metaphase I pairs of chromosomes line up along the equator.
During anaphase I the sister chromatids move together to the same pole.
During anaphase II the sister chromatids are separated to opposite poles.
Similarities
Mitosis
Diploid parent cell
Consists of interphase, prophase, metaphase, anaphase and telophase
In metaphase individual chromosomes (pairs of chromatids) line up along the equator.
During anaphase the sister chromatids are separated to opposite poles.
Ends with cytokinesis.
Meiosis
Diploid parent cell
Consists of interphase, prophase, metaphase, anaphase and telophase (but twice!)
In metaphase II individual chromosomes (pairs of chromatids) line up along the equator.
During anaphase II the sister chromatids are separated to opposite poles.
Ends with cytokinesis.
Answer: D) constructive process
Explanation:
Deposition is the geological <u>process</u> in which sediments, soil and rocks are <u>added</u> to a landform or land mass. Wind, ice, water, and gravity transport previously weathered surface material, which, at the loss of enough kinetic energy in the fluid, is deposited, <u>building up</u> layers of sediment.
Answer:
Diamond is a solid form of the element carbon with its atoms arranged in a crystal structuctre. It is formed in the mantle and delivered to the surface by deep source volcanic eruption.
Explanation:
it have exquisite beauty, inner fire, and unique physical quantity have made them so precious.
Answer:
The following are the two functions of citric acid in the feta cheese:
1. Coagulation, that is, the chemical reaction of citric acid with proteins in milk leads to separation of curd and whey.
2. The citric acid functions as a chelating agent, which is required for syneresis, that is, for controlling the moisture content.
The following are the two functions of agar in the feta cheese:
1. Feta means to slice, and agar offers sliceable texture to the feta cheese as it produces a solid gel-like composition.
2. It is a vegetarian alternative for gelatin and exhibits higher gelling properties.
