Cell division is the process by which a parent cell divides into two or more daughter cells.[1]Cell division usually occurs as part of a larger cell cycle. In eukaryotes, there are two distinct types of cell division: a vegetative division, whereby each daughter cell is genetically identical to the parent cell (mitosis),[2] and a reproductive cell division, whereby the number of chromosomes in the daughter cells is reduced by half to produce haploid gametes(meiosis). Meiosis results in four haploid daughter cells by undergoing one round of DNA replication followed by two divisions. Homologous chromosomes are separated in the first division, and sister chromatids are separated in the second division. Both of these cell division cycles are used in the process of sexual reproduction at some point in their life cycle. Both are believed to be present in the last eukaryotic common ancestor.
Prokaryotes (bacteria) undergo a vegetative cell division known as binary fission, where their genetic material is segregated equally into two daughter cells. All cell divisions, regardless of organism, are preceded by a single round of DNA replication.
For simple unicellular microorganisms such as the amoeba, one cell division is equivalent to reproduction – an entire new organism is created. On a larger scale, mitotic cell division can create progeny from multicellular organisms, such as plants that grow from cuttings. Mitotic cell division enables sexually reproducing organisms to develop from the one-celled zygote, which itself was produced by meiotic cell division from gametes. After growth, cell division by mitosis allows for continual construction and repair of the organism.[3] The human body experiences about 10 quadrillion cell divisions in a lifetime.[4]
The primary concern of cell division is the maintenance of the original cell's genome. Before division can occur, the genomic information that is stored in chromosomes must be replicated, and the duplicated genome must be separated cleanly between cells.[5] A great deal of cellular infrastructure is involved in keeping genomic information consistent between generations.
The correct answer is D. species.
The definition of a species is termed as a group of interbreeding individuals cannot be easily applied to organisms that they reproduce only or mainly by asexual methods.
Species is termed as the basic unit of classification and taxonomic rank and also unit of biodiversity. It is the largest group of organisms whereby two individuals produce fertile offspring.
They are typically by sexual reproduction. Boundary which is between closely related species they becomes unclear.
B is the answer to your question.
I hope this helped!
<span>Alzheimer's would also be what a diabetes medicine can help cure. Since the diabetes is a being able to maintain glucose it can also send signals to the brain which in term can help with dementia.</span>
Consider the nest to be (0,0)
The bird first flew 40 km (20x2) up and then 45km (15x3) left
So the final coordinates would be (40, -45)
