ella [17]

In human cell mitosis, each daughter cell will have the same number of chromosomes as the parent cell, which is 46 chromosomes. If the parent cell is diploid, it has two sets of chromosomes, or a total of 46. If it is haploid, such as sperms and eggs, they have one set of chromosomes, or just 23.

During what stage does land get ready for the arrival of a new species
34kurt

Answer

           The correct option is B.

Explanation

          Ecological succession of any species is composed of following stages:

A. Migration

            The movement of species from one place to another location for the purpose of setting permanently o temporary is known as migration . Forexample

             Siberian crane (<em>Leucogeranus leucogeranus</em>) that live in the arctic tundra of eastern and western Russia. The eastern population of birds migrate to china while western population of these birds migrate to Iran, India and Nepal during winter season.

B. Ecesis

         The complete establishment of species in new habitat that was completely barren or left barren due to some catastrophe is known as Ecesion. This process is dependent upon the climatic, edaphic and biotic factors. The success of plant depend upon some of the adaptations to withstand the unfavorable conditions which includes both biotic and abiotic conditions.

Forexample

               The process of succession in xerosphere start on barren area from pioneer stage covered by crustose lichen, then foliose lichen followed by moss stage, herbaceous stage and a last by shrub stage.

C. Nudation

       The initiation of new species by major environmental disturbance such as volcano eruption is known as Nudation.

D. Reaction

            It represents the effect of established species on the habitat. Forexample plants alter habitat condition as they grow. They extract raw materials from the environment in large amounts and return metabolic wastes. The waste accumulates in large amounts and differ from the original raw materials, thus altering the environment.  

E. Competition

             The phenomenon which involves struggle for existence between two or more individuals growing in same area, that make excessive demand that are similar in nature on the soil is known as competition.

Such struggle may be in between same species or different species. The competition may be interspecific or intraspecific. Because of completion the weak individuals are eliminated as strong ones are retained.

LuckyWell [14K]

Answer: Daughter cell that does not receive mitochondria, will not be able to produce the energy needed to carry out cell functions. The cell that receives all the mitochondria, will be able to carry out cellular respiration and thus produce energy.

Explanation:

The mitochondrion is a cellular organelle found in eukaryotic cells, and provides the energy needed to carry out cellular activity. They are characterized by their large size, compared to other cell organelles, and their globular shape. <u>Mitochondria generate most of the chemical energy needed to activate the biochemical reactions in the cell</u>,<u> through a process called cellular respiration</u>. It irefers to a set of biochemical reactions by which certain organic compounds are degraded by oxidation into inorganic substances. The chemical energy produced by mitochondria is stored in an energized molecule called adenosine triphosphate (ATP).

Then, if during cell division, one of the daughter cells does not receive mitochondria, it will not have the necessary organelles to carry out cell respiration and will not be able to produce the energy needed to carry out cell functions. The cell that receives all the mitochondria will have no major problems, it will be able to carry out cellular respiration and thus produce energy.

netineya [11]

The answer is

B. Denaturing proteins

C. Altering quaternary structures

D. Destroying cell membranes

Protein have a complex structure from primary to quaternary structure. Change in pH or temperature will cause denaturation of protein which make it unfolded and change the secondary, tertiary, or quaternary structure and cause the enzyme of bacteria become useless. It could also damage the protein in membrane and destroy them, causing lysis. It should not affect the sugar though
