"Prophase I" is the stage of meiosis that synapsis and the formation of tetrads occur.
The features or characteristics of organic compounds include:
1. They contain covalent bonds and are mostly non polar in nature
2. Have lower boiling and melting points than inorganic compounds
3. Many organic compounds are thermally unstable, They decompose into simpler molecules when heated at fairly high temperatures
4. Most organic compounds are inflammable and burn exothermically in sufficient air to yield carbon dioxide, water and heat energy.
5. Most organic compounds being largely non polar are insoluble in water.
Answer:
Evolution is a gradual change in the inherited traits of a population over many generations. Natural selection is a mechanism where the members of a population best suited to their environment have the best chance of surviving to pass on their genes.
Answer:
The correct answer is C. A buildup of lactic acid in the tissues.
Sore muscles after vigorous exercise are the result of lactic acid accumulation in the muscles.
Vigorous exercise reduces the levels of oxygen available in the muscles due to which complete oxidation of the glucose could not take place.
Muscle cells switch to another process called as lactic acid fermentation to produce energy. In this process, lactate dehydrogenase converts pyruvate into lactate and reduces NADH to NAD⁺.
This NAD⁺ enables the continuation of glycolysis which results in the production of net 2 ATP.
In addition, influx of materials such as nutrients, WBC, anti-inflammatory compounds etc into the muscle cell (for repair) causes swelling of the muscle fibers which is also the reason for the muscle soreness.
Answer: Organisms depend on other organisms and on the nonliving things in an ecosystem to meet their basic needs for food, water and protection. 3. Plants use energy from the sun to produce their own food from air and water.
