Answer:
C) production of sperm and eggs
Explanation:
Sperms and eggs are the male and female gametes respectively. Formation of sperms and egg cells require meiotic cell division. Meiosis in sperm mother cells and egg mother cells reduces the chromosome number of half in the sperms and eggs. Meiosis also adds new gene combinations in these gametes by the process of crossing over.
Mitosis cannot reduce the chromosome number to half in the sperms and eggs. Absence of crossing over in mitosis leads to the formation of genetically identical progeny cells from mitosis.
Hence, mitosis can not form sperms and egg cells. If it does, the sperms and egg cells would not have genetic variations and there would be doubling of chromosome number with each round of sexual reproduction.
The energy needed by a system to initiate a process is called as the activation energy. It describes the minimum energy which must be available to a chemical system with potential reactants to result in a chemical reaction. Hope this answers the question.
Answer:
The models are missing in the question. The models along with the question is provided in the attachment below.
The answer is : Model A represents the Plasma membrane.
Explanation:
According to the question, model A represents the plasma membrane. The reasons are :
(a). In the model A, the bilayers consists of two leaflets of the amphipathic lipid molecules. Here the polar head groups is in contact with the intra cellular or the extra cellular non aqueous phase, where the non polar tails are facing each other constituting the hydrophobic interior of the membrane.
(b). Lipid are not rigid as well as static structure. In the lipid bilayer, the lipid molecule are able to rotate around their axis freely and diffuse laterally with each leaflet.
(c). The plasma membrane acts as the selective plasma membrane.
Answer:
no
Explanation:
the DNA floats around freely inside the cell in a loosely coiled circular shape in the nucleoid rather then the nucleus
The agriculture is one of the biggest contaminators of the groundwater. The contamination happens through the usage of chemicals in the agriculture for protection of the plants, or to encourage their growth. Part of those chemicals mange to wash through the soil and reach the groundwater. The majority of the groundwater is connected with the lakes and the rivers, thus the chemicals reach those waters as well. This makes these waters unusable for the humans because they are becoming toxic. The end result would be much less freshwater for usage, be it fro drinking, or for housework, as it can cause serious damage and even death if used, so a shortage of water would be inevitable.
