3 0

Answer:

Terrestrial  - Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars

Gas Giants  - Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune

Ice Giants - Uranus and Neptune

Explanation:

Gas plants are the planets that are composed mostly of the gases in them such as helium and hydrogen found in Saturn and Jupiter planets there are four planets known as the gas giants that are Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune. However, Uranus and Neptune planets are known as ice giants as these two planets are cold and remote and made up of completely different gases from the other two gas giants.

Terrestrial planets are the planets that are more rocky and compact in terms of their surface and these planets are inner planets of our solar system that are Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars.

The drug colchicine inhibits the formation of spindle fibers during mitosis. If you treat dividing plant cells with colchicine,
vekshin1

Answer:

D

Explanation:

During metaphase of cell division, the chromosomes line up in the metaphase plate and the spindle fibers from the poles extend and attach to the centromeres of the chromosomes. The spindle then contracts and pull different chromosomes to the opposite poles of the cell before the parent cell divides.   If spindle fibers do not form, then the chromosomes will not separate during anaphase.

Therefore, the final cell after mitosis will be a cell with double the number of chromosomes -because if you remember, during interphase, genetic material is replicated so each daughter cell can have its copy-. Due to quality control in the process of cell divisison, this cell will mostly undergo apoptosis, otherwise, it could develop into cancer.

The higher the ____ content of a dna, the ____ the strength of the interchain interactions, and the ____ the melting temperature
castortr0y [4]

The higher the GC content of a DNA, the higher the strength of the interchain interactions, and the higher the melting temperature.

DNA is Deoxyribonucleic Acid. It is the genetic material in maximum of the organisms. The DNA is a polymer made from nucleotides (sugar, nitrogenous bases and phosphate group). It is composed of two strands of phosphate and sugar backbone in an antiparallel direction. The nitrogenous bases present in DNA are Adenine (A), Thymine (T), Guanine (G) and Cytosine (C).

GC content refers to the total amount of Guanine and Cytosine present in the DNA. Since there exists a triple bond between G and C, more percentage of them provides strength to DNA. That is why high GC content denotes high melting temperature of DNA.
