What are the differences between mitosis and meiosis in human cells? Pay particular attention to the types of cells, number of d
Nezavi [6.7K]
Mitosis Involves one cell division? Results in two daughter cells Results in diploid? daughter cells? (chromosome? number remains the same as parent cell) Daughter cells are genetically identical Occurs in all organisms except viruses Creates all body cells (somatic?) apart from the germ cells? (eggs and sperm) Prophase is much shorter No recombination/crossing over occurs in prophase. In metaphase individual chromosomes (pairs of chromatids) line up along the equator. During anaphase the sister chromatids are separated to opposite poles. Meiosis Involves two successive cell divisions Results in four daughter cells Results in haploid? daughter cells (chromosome number is halved from the parent cell) Daughter cells are genetically different Occurs only in animals, plants and fungi Creates germ cells (eggs and sperm) only Prophase I takes much longer Involves recombination/crossing over of chromosomes in prophase I In metaphase I pairs of chromosomes line up along the equator. During anaphase I the sister chromatids move together to the same pole. During anaphase II the sister chromatids are separated to opposite poles. Similarities Mitosis Diploid parent cell Consists of interphase, prophase, metaphase, anaphase and telophase In metaphase individual chromosomes (pairs of chromatids) line up along the equator. During anaphase the sister chromatids are separated to opposite poles. Ends with cytokinesis. Meiosis Diploid parent cell Consists of interphase, prophase, metaphase, anaphase and telophase (but twice!) In metaphase II individual chromosomes (pairs of chromatids) line up along the equator. During anaphase II the sister chromatids are separated to opposite poles. Ends with cytokinesis.

The universe can be explored using visible and invisible forms of light. These dishes (that detect radio waves from outer space)
Novosadov [1.4K]
<h3>Answer: C. Very Large Array </h3>

There are 28 radio antenna, which are essentially satellite dishes. Only 27 are in operation at any given time, leaving one to sit out for maintenance. Astronomers using this array were able to observe black holes, and also observe the formation of interplanetary disks, among many other applications as well.

The reason why so many dishes are used is to increase the faint signal that is received from such a long distance away (often lightyears away). The 27 dishes are effectively the same as having a single radio dish that is 36 km (22 miles) in diameter. Having such a impossibly massive satellite dish is not feasible, so it's more practical to go with 27 smaller dishes.

Which hypothesis most likely explains the results at 60°C and 70°C
Studentka2010 [4]

Answer:

The correct option is <u><em>B. The Enzyme or substrate has been changed.</em></u>

Explanation:

Enzymes can be described as biological catalysts which speed up a reaction. Each enzyme is specific for a particular substrate. Enzymes work best at a particular pH and temperature known as optimum pH and optimum temperature.

As the temperature is raised, the working of the enzyme enhances. It becomes most efficient at a particular temperature which is known as the optimum temperature. If the temperature is raised beyond this optimum temperature, then the working of the enzyme starts to decline. Eventually, the enzyme loses its shape and is not able to fit the substrate into its active site. So, activity of the enzyme stops.
