Explain the protective significance of chromosomes condensing into tight coils during mitosis.

Biology
1 answer:
raketka [301]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

Chromosomes condense before mitosis to allow them the ability to move smoothly, without becoming entangled and breaking. (So, they are conveniently packaged for cell division, in which the chromosomes must move to both poles of the cell.)

Explanation:Otherwise it would be a mess as they get tightly packed

Why is it more ethical to test for the waste products of respiration rather than the reactants
weeeeeb [17]

Answer:

The knowledge of simple biological reactions tells us that the product of reactions results from the complete or partial use of the reactants. In some reversible reactions, products can be converted to reactants in equal volume. Hence, in reactions that cannot be reversed, as evident in respiration, its waste products can be used to indicate that indeed respiration did take place. When glucose is consumed it is broken down through a series of reactions to give carbon dioxide and water as waste products.

Explain how a school bus uses all of these energy types.
harkovskaia [24]

Answer:

Mechanical

94 percent of all school buses in America are powered by diesel engines because of their reliability, durability and safety. Almost half of these (46 percent) rely on the cleanest, near-zero emission diesel engine technology.

Chemical

school bus uses petroleum as chemical potential energy.

Electrical

An electric bus draws electricity from the power grid and stores it in a battery that can be recharged once the electricity has been used up. This basically mirrors the way our electronics work. We plug them in and let the battery charge and then use them wirelessly until it's time to charge again

Thermal

They heat the cold coolant from engine's block to 160° F in as little as one hour, then pump it back to the vehicle's engine and heat exchangers. The result: engine is preheated and the vehicle's heat exchangers distribute an abundance of heat to the vehicle's interior.
