How do the cells in meiosis differ from the cells in mitosis

The purpose of mitosis is cell regeneration, growth, and asexual reproduction,while the purpose of meiosis is the production of gametes for sexual reproduction. Mitosis is a single nuclear division that results in two nuclei that are usually partitioned into two new daughter cells. The nuclei resulting from a mitotic division are genetically identical to the original nucleus. They have the same number of sets of chromosomes, one set in the case of haploid cells and two sets in the case of diploid cells. In most plants and all animal species, it is typically diploid cells that undergo mitosis to form new diploid cells. In contrast, meiosis consists of two nuclear divisions resulting in four nuclei that are usually partitioned into four new haploid daughter cells. The nuclei resulting from meiosis are not genetically identical and they contain one chromosome set only. This is half the number of chromosome sets in the original cell, which is diploid.

Based on the picture, how did the sunflowers show their competition? Why should they compete?

I choose this as a scientific question because there are numerous sunflowers that occupy the land. Living things try to survive with their environmental conditions. Thus, competition happens among the organisms.

Answer:

For example, if the seeds that the bird needs to eat is bigger, over time it will adapt to get a bigger beak to eat the bigger seed. The birds that have adapted reproduce and soon more and more birds that have a bigger beak for the bigger seed are more common. If the type of food available changes than the bird will most likely adapt to eat that food.

If one sample food contains 200 cal in another contains 300 cal, which statement applies?
Advocard [28]

<u>Answer</u>:

The food containing 200 calorie have less potential energy than the food containing 300 calorie

<u>Explanation</u>:

The potential energy content of a food material is its stored energy content which is in the form of chemical bonds. This energy can be measured through the combustion of food material inside a calorimeter. A calorimeter is an instrument which is used to measure the total calorie content of the food or other biological samples by measuring its heat content. A Calorie is unit of energy which is in form of heat.

The food material containing carbohydrates proteins and fats have energy in form of chemical bonds.  On the breaking of bond inside the body, energy is released as in the case of glucose breakdown also known as glycolysis.  

The energy released from glycolysis is used to synthesize high energy containing phosphoanhydride bonds. These ATP molecules are a further breakdown in the system to provide energy to the cell to perform various activities.
