Answer:

No, since DNA does code for certain traits, others are introduced or changed by the environment. For example, some adaptations are not coded in DNA, such as dying hair. According to the gene, hair is to be black, for example, but it can be changed to look pink. Another example is when a person is first born. When they are, some bacteria enter the system of the baby --- mostly good. Then the baby's gut will be different, and the bacteria in the gut are not coded by the DNA. So, living things are not only the product of DNA, as there are extraneous factors that affect living things as well.

For this cell division, you can see that 4 daughter cells are made that have half the genetic information as the original. What

ycow [4]

Answer:

The cell division where 4 daughter cells with half of the genetic information of the original are obtained is meiosis (option c).

Explanation:

Meiosis is a type of cell division through which sex cells or gametes are obtained. It is a reductive division, since the daughter cells resulting from the process contain half of the chromosomal charge with respect to the original one.

In the process of meiosis, four haploid cells are obtained from a diploid cell, each of which is involved in the reproduction of the species. This mechanism of division occurs in two stages, called meiosis I and II.

The other options are not correct because:

a) Diffusion: it is a passive trans-membrane transport mechanism.

b) Mitosis: is the cellular division of somatic cells, where the result is two daughter cells identical to the original.

d) Photosynthesis: is the mechanism by which plants obtain energy and nutrients, from solar energy.
