Answer:

prophase 1(Homologous chromosomes pair to form a tetrad.

prophase 1(Crossing-over may occur between the non-sister chromatids).

Metaphase 1 (Homologous chromosomes line up at the center of the cell.)

Anaphase 1 (Homologous pairs separate and move towards opposite ends of the cell)

Telophase 1 (A nuclear membrane forms and cytokinesis follows).

Metaphase 2 ( The haploid number of duplicated chromosomes line up at the metaphase plate.

Anaphase 2 (Sister chromatids separate and become daughter chromosomes that move to the poles)

Meiosis 2: Four haploid daughter cells are formed that are not genetically identical.

Explanation:

Meiosis is a type of cell division that gives rise to gametes ( offsprings). This type of cell division occurs only in the reproductive organs. A diploid cell has two sets of chromosomes: one from the female parent and the other one from the male parent. When the diploid cell undergoes meiosis, the chromosome replicate once and the nucleus and cell duplicate twice giving rise to four haploid gamete cells.

The phases of meiosis occurs in two step divisions. Homologous pairs separate during the first round cell division which occurs in MEIOSIS 1 while the sister chromatids separate in the second nuclear division called MEIOSIS 2.

In each round of division, cells go through four stages: PROPHASE, METAPHASE, ANAPHASE, and TELOPHASE. The specific events that occur in these stages are already listed in the above answer.

Generally, at the start of meiosis, each member of a homologous pair of chromosomes, which are made up of two chromatids, moves to lie side by side. While they are thus paired, genetic material is exchanged between the chromatids. This is known as CROSSING OVER.

When the nucleus divides for the first time, the chromosomes in a given pair( not the chromatids) separate and move to opposite ends of the cell. This results in only half the number of chromosomes going to each daughter cell.

During the second nuclear division, the chromatids separate and move to opposite ends of each daughter cell giving rise to four gamete cells, each with a haploid number of chromosomes.

If people use an ecosystem without damaging it then what they are doing is__ ?
soldi70 [24.7K]

Answer:

Sustainable use of the environment

Explanation:

Be it the ecosystem or the food you eat, if you just take up whatever you need instead of over exploiting the resources, another life can benefit from it. The relationship we need to form with our environment should be mutualism or commensalism but not parasitism.

What conclusion about the bacteria domain could be made from the phylogenetic tree below?
Elden [556K]

Answer: The correct answer is -

D. Eukarya has similar evolutionary traits to archaea.

A phylogenetic tree (also known as evolutionary tree) is a diagrammatic representation (in the form of branch diagram) showing the evolutionary relationships among various organisms. It is constructed on the basis of similarities or differences in the genetic or physical characteristics of various species.

In the given phylogenetic tree, archaea domain shows more similarities to the domain eukarya as it has descended after the domain bacteria.

Thus, option D) is the right answer.

<h2>MCQ:- </h2>

<h3>ANSWER:-</h3>

  1. Tissue
  2. Unicellular Prokaryote
  3. Must be correct
  4. Not include in any kingdom

<h2>Explanation:- </h2>

(1) Group of cell that work together as one to perform a single function is termed as Tissue . Then the group of tissue combine to form organs and further they combine to organ systems and further they combine to form organ system .

(2) They are unicellular green algae which belongs to family Volvocaceae of the Plantae Kingdom

(3) Hypothesis is the assumption which are taken on the behalf of the observation on small <u>scale</u> . They can be correct or incorrect depends on the number of observation and Hypothesis.

(4) Viruses are included in any of the kingdom because they are on the intermediate line of living and non living as they show properties of non living outside the host and properties of living inside the host
