The elephant cell will have 20 chromosomes.

Cells undergo interphase before getting to the mitotic phase. At the S phase of the interphase, the amount of DNA in the cell is double by replication. However, the number of chromosomes remains intact.

Thus, the cell gets to the mitotic phase with the same number of chromosomes that is usually present in normal vegetative cells of the animal.

What are the communities in a successional sequence of primary succession?
dedylja [7]

Explanation:

Communities in a  primary succession include

-barren rock

-bacteria and fungi

-mosses and lichen

Further Explanation:

Ecological communities are highly dynamic- they gradually evolve. Typically their progression involves:

  • colonizing species exploiting uninhabited areas (Primary  succession)
  • becoming a habitable and increasingly complex community
  • there is increased diversity of organisms (Secondary)

The makeup of biological communities is crucial to defining Primary and Secondary succession; eventually, through changes in this makeup, a steady-state or equilibrium is reached called a climax community. While Primary succession starts off with the modification of a previously unoccupied area along with increasing variation; secondary succession begins after major disruption in the community such as fires, storms and flooding.

However, the process of becoming a climax community can be pretty complicated- it is very dependent on other factors like temperature and rainfall. Communities that experience rapid change, frequent major disruptions and even human intervention, are less likely to attain a stable equilibrium and may never become climax communities.

The "lub" heart sound is due to the Select one: a. onward rush of blood to the heart. b. contraction of aortic muscle tissue. c.
adelina 88 [10]

Answer: Option D.

The lub heart sound is due to the closing of atrioventricular valves.

Explanation:

Heart sounds are noises that are generated from beatings from heart and from blood that flows through it. The heart sound reflect the turbulence generated when the heart valves snap shut. Lub is the first heart sound also called S1 and it is caused by turbulence and closure of the atrioventricular valves(mitral and triscupid valves) at the start of systole. The second sound is the dub sound which caused by the closing of aortic and pulmonic valves at the end of systole.
