Answer:

D) Organisms of the same species can live in different areas, while organisms of the same population live in only one area.

Explanation:

Species is the term used to describe organisms that are chemically and physically similar to each other and that manage to reproduce and generate fertile descendants. Individuals of the same species can live in different places on the planet. For example, the species Homo sapiens (human being), has representatives in South America and Asia.

Population, on the other hand, is the term used to describe the group of individuals of the same species living in the same area for a period of time. For example, the population of Homo sapiens in South America has around 418 million inhabitants.

Which of the following events is typical of meiosis but not of mitosis?
marin [14]

Answer:

D. the homologous chromosomes are paired AND the spindle is formed

Explanation:

Meiosis is the type of cell division that results in four daughter cells with each having a reduced number of chromosomes (by half). Both meiosis and mitosis occur in different stages including prophase, metaphase, anaphase etc but meiosis occurs in two series of division processes called meiosis I and meiosis II.

In prophase I of meiosis, homologous chromosomes, which are similar but non-identical chromosomes from male and female parents pair to form tetrad or bivalent. This pairing of homologous chromosome is unique and peculiar to MEIOSIS but never mitosis.

cells can be observed in plants, animals, fungi, protists, bacteria, and archaea. which part of the cell theory?
Alexandra [31]

Answer:

The cell theory was given by Schwann and Schleiden. The fact that cells can be observed in plants, animals, fungi, protists, bacteria and archea comes from one of the postulates of cell theory- All living organisms are composed of  one or more cells.

Explanation:

The cell theory initially contained three postulates:

  1. The cell is the basic unit of organization in all organisms.
  2. All living organisms contain one or more than one cell.
  3. All cells arise from cells which are already in existence.

The discovery of cell was made by Robert Hooke. Later after further observations, more points were added to the cell theory like

  • The genetic component of the cell is DNA and is transferred within cells.
  • The <em>chemical composition</em> of all the cells is similar.
  • A flow of <em>energy</em> occurs within the cells.
