Answer:

Heredity is important to all living organisms as it determines which traits are passed from parent to child. Successful traits are more frequently passed along and over time can change a species. Changes in traits can allow organisms to adapt to specific environments for better rates of survival.

Answer:

The correct answer is: Clostridium Tetani.

Explanation:

Clostridium tetani is a Gram-positive bacteria found in soil.

C. tetani may grow and generate tetanospasmin, a powerful toxin that interferes with motor neurons, producing tetanus, if introduced into a wound.

Tetanospasmin travels throughout the body via the lymphatic and bloodstream, where it is taken up by different sections of the nervous system. Tetanospasmin inhibits the release of the inhibitory neurotransmitters glycine and gamma-aminobutyric acid at motor nerve terminals in the nervous system. This blockage causes extensive motor neuron activation and muscular spasming. These muscle spasms usually start at the top of the body and work their way down, starting about 8 days after infection with lockjaw and progressing to spasms of the stomach muscles and extremities. The muscle spasms last several weeks.

Tetanus toxoid vaccinations, which are often given to children around the world, can inhibit the toxin's activity.

A elephant cell has 20 chromosomes. how many chromosomes will the cell have just before mitosis begins in the elephant cell?

lora16 [44]

The elephant cell will have 20 chromosomes.

Cells undergo interphase before getting to the mitotic phase. At the S phase of the interphase, the amount of DNA in the cell is double by replication. However, the number of chromosomes remains intact.

Thus, the cell gets to the mitotic phase with the same number of chromosomes that is usually present in normal vegetative cells of the animal.
