Answer:

Ecologically sustainable development is the environmental component of sustainable development. It can be achieved partially through the use of the precautionary principle. The precautionary principle (or precautionary approach) is a broad epistemological, philosophical and legal approach to innovations with potential for causing harm when extensive scientific knowledge on the matter is lacking. It emphasizes caution, pausing and review before leaping into new innovations that may prove disastrous

How is cytokinesis different in animals and plants? Animal cells get pinched into two daughter cells by the cell membrane; the p

jasenka [17]

<h2>Let's review what cytokinesis is first.</h2>

Cytokensis is the physical process of cell division. It divides the cytoplasm of a parental cell into two different daughter cells.

In plants, a cell wall forms. Cytokensis occurs in mitosis and meiosis. The objective for cytokensis is to divide the parent cell into two daughter cells. So cytokensis in plants is when a cell wall forms in between the daughter cells. Plant cells have walls, so they CANNOT divide using a cleavage furrow. A cell plate forms across the cell during telophase.

In animal cells, cleavage furrow forms. This pinches the cell in half and forms two different cells.

A cleavage furrow is an indentation that appears in the cells surface when the cell is preparing to divide.

So, let's review our options:

A: Animal cells get pinched into two daughter cells by the cell membrane; the plant cell has to form a cell plate before it can create daughter cells.

This would be the correct answer. The only main difference between animal cell cytokensis vs plant cell cytokensis is the cell wall that animal cells lack. Animal cells get pinched into two daughter cells, by the cleavage furrow in the cell membrane, while the plant cell has to form a cell plate before it can create daughter cells.

B: Animal cells give daughter cells a full set of chromosomes at the time of division; plant cells give daughter cells a half set of chromosomes. .

This can be disproven. In meosis, a cell divides into four cells that have half the number of chromosomes. In mitosis, all chromosomes are kept. Both Plant & Animal cells both reproduce using both both meosis and mitosis, so this option is irrelevant.

C: Animal cells require an extra grow phase before cytokensis; plant cells move straight to cytokensis.

Both animal cells and plant cells have the same amount of "grow phases" before cytokensis. This option is irrelevant.

D: Animal cells begin cytokensis during anaphase, plant cells begin around the same time as telophase.

They both begin during the same time. This option is also irrelevant.

Which of the following statements about archaea are true cowan?A) They are prokaryotes.B) They lack peptidoglycan in their cell

Veseljchak [2.6K]

Answer:

All the options are true except option D.

Explanation:

Archaea are a group of prokaryotic organisms i.e. they lack a membrane bound nucleus. They are one of the the three domains of life (the other two being bacteria and eukarya). Archeans possess a cell wall like bacteria but it is not composed of peptidoglycan, like bacteria cell wall.

Archeans are generally known to be found in very severe environmental conditions, hence, they are referred to as extremophiles e.g Some are thermoacidophiles i.e. thrive in very hot and acidic environment while others are extreme halophiles i.e. thrive in salty regions. Archeans known as methanogens produce methane gas as a product of metabolism from carbon dioxide and hydrogen.

However, the domain archeae was only found to be in existence recently after the domain bacteria, hence, they are not considered to evolve before the domain bacteria.

Look at the diagram. When this process happens in human cells, how many chromosomes will there

irina1246 [14]

Answer:

46 chromosomes

Explanation:

In mitosis (I think it is this process) the 46 chromosomes in cell A replicate themselves, so there are 92 in total in cell B. Then the chromosomes are pulled apart and the cell splits into 2 daughter cells, leaving 46 chromosomes in each.

In which terrestrial biome would you find precipitation of 300 to 900 millimeters (mm) each year?

True [87]

Answer: B. coniferous forests.

Explanation:

Coniferous forests are the terrestrial biomes which receives an annually 300 to 900 millimeters precipitation. These forests exhibits trees which undergoes special adaptations in the scarcity of water. The forests exhibit coniferous trees which means instead of leaves they posses needles and instead of flowers they have cones. These adaptations helps in preventing the water loss through transpiration.
