Question:
Trudy made this Venn diagram comparing interphase and cytokinesis.
Which statement belongs in the region marked X? (image attached)
Answer options:
- Is the longest stage
- DNA is copied
- The number of nuclei doubles
- The number of cells doubles
Answer:
- The number of cells doubles
Explanation:
Cytokinesis describes the splitting of the cytoplasm after mitosis. During interphase, the DNA is replicated. During mitosis, the DNA condenses into chromosomes, and the chromosomes are aligned and separated to opposite ends of the cell. During cytokinesis, the cell separates into two daughter cells.
The natural rate of extinction as assumed by science is about 5 species per year. Currently scientists estimate we are losing species at 1000-10000 times that rate, with multiple species disappearing every day. A note on this idea is that the average extinction rate gives an unrealistic depiction of nature when we consider the catastrophic extinction events that ended the dinosaurs and shaped the ice age.
Answer:
Low pressure spins counterclockwise, causing weather systems to move from west to east in the Northern Hemisphere.
This is due to lower air pressure further North America than in the tropics. Since low-pressure systems spin counterclockwise, winds move from the west to the east.
Prevailing weather results from expansive convection currents formed by the temperature differences on the surface of the earth as latitude increases. The Coriolis effect adds the twist.
I got this from a few sites so use this information as you want and be careful <3
Answer:
A mutation that causes a single letter change in the DNA sequence can affect your protein structure and function because the sequence of letters in a gene determines the sequence of amino acids in the protein that it encodes. A single letter change in the DNA alters the mRNA which alters the amino acid sequence of the resulting protein and sometimes that can cause serious results if it changes the way a protein works.
