The greatest error in the experimental design is that the temperature of both bins were taken at different times from each other. The students should have measured them at the same time to lessen the randomness of the variables. A way to "fix" this is by changing taking into account the extra time between bin A was and bin B was measured for bin B's calculations.

Which is true regarding the process of meiosis I?
sashaice [31]

Answer: The correct option is A (chromosome Number is reduced from diploid to haploid)

Explanation:

In sexual reproduction, offspring are produced by fusion of two different sex cells which usually come from two different parents. These sex cells are know as gametes.

Meiosis is a type of cell division that gives rise to gametes in which the chromosome number is halved. Thus, the gamete cell is said to contain a haploid number (n) of chromosomes.

A diploid cell has two sets of chromosomes: one from the male parent and the other from the female parent. When a diploid cell undergoes meiosis the following occurs:

--> the chromosomes replicate once and

--> the nucleus and cell duplicate ( divide equally) twice.

As a result, the diploid parent cell gives rise to four haploid gamete cells. Therefore the statement "chromosome Number is reduced from diploid to haploid ' is true concerning meiosis I.
