Answer:

1,2,4,5,6,3

Explanation:

Meiosis involves two rounds of cell division to create 4 haploid cells, therefore, we know that 3 must be the final stage.

Meiosis starts with a diploid cell following DNA replication. Therefore, stage 1 is the first.

Homologous chromosomes align (as shown in stage 2). Then, the chromosomes are separated to opposite poles of the cell (4) and two new cells start to form, before the cell divides (5).

Then, the chromosomes in these two cells align at the centre of the cells (6), and the sister chromatids are pulled apart to create four haploid cells (3)

A DNA molecule produced by combining DNA from different sources is known as

Digiron [165]

Answer:

A DNA molecule produced by combining DNA from different sources is known as recombinant DNA.

Explanation:

Recombinant DNA (rDNA) can be obtained by coupling DNA fragments from different sources, a process that is performed at the restriction site level and uses enzymes.

Once rDNA has been designed —cutting out fragments of DNA that are then reassembled— it must be brought to a specific location in the cells, to be copied and expressed, using means of transport called vectors.

DNA recombination is performed in biotechnology laboratories specialized in the manipulation of genetic material.

The other options are not correct because:

Mutant or mutated DNA is a DNA molecule with an alteration of its nitrogenous base sequence
Hybrid DNA is a variant of recombiant DNA, in which only two DNA molecules from different sources are used.
Polyploid refers to cells containing the genome of different species.

How would the fossil record look different after the Cambrian Explosion vs. after a mass extinction?

Aliun [14]

The beginning of the Cambrian Period is marked by the evolution of hard body parts such as calcium carbonate shells. ... These body parts fossilize more easily than soft tissues, and thus the fossil record becomes much more complete after their appearance.
