Accepted Answer

The answer of How do microtubules separate chromosomes during anaphase?​
...

Question 2

The fusion of egg and sperm cells results a(n) _____.​

Accepted Answer

The fusion of egg and sperm cells results in a zygote, which is the initial cell formed when a new organism is conceived.

Question 3

Sister chromatids separate during _____ of mitosis and _____ of meiosis.​

Accepted Answer

Sister chromatids separate during anaphase of mitosis and anaphase II of meiosis. In anaphase of mitosis and anaphase II of meiosis, the sister chromatids are pulled apart by the spindle fibers and move toward opposite poles of the cell, ensuring that each daughter cell receives an identical set of chromosomes.

Question 4

Match the following terms to the correct statements.
-results in identical daughter cells
A)mitosis
B)meiosis
C)both mitosis and meiosis
D)neither mitosis or meiosis

Accepted Answer

Accepted Answer

The period prior to mitosis is called G2 (G stands for gap).

Question 14

In meiosis, _____ are separated during anaphase I, and _____ are separated during anaphase II.​

Accepted Answer

During anaphase I of meiosis, homologous chromosomes are separated, ensuring each daughter cell receives a chromosome from each pair. In anaphase II, sister chromatids are separated, similar to what occurs in mitosis, to ensure each of the resulting gametes has a single copy of each chromosome.

Question 15

New alleles arise by _____.​

Accepted Answer

New alleles, which are variations of a gene, arise through mutations. Mutations are changes in the DNA sequence of an organism's genome and can occur due to errors in DNA replication, repair, or through exposure to mutagens. These changes can result in new traits being expressed by an organism.

Question 16

Which statement describes the function of telomeres?​

Accepted Answer

Telomeres are repetitive nucleotide sequences at the ends of chromosomes that protect the coding regions of DNA from being eroded during the replication process. Since DNA polymerase cannot replicate the very end of a chromosome, telomeres prevent the loss of important genetic information by being shortened instead of the coding regions.

Question 17

Matching Match the cellular process to the correct phase of the eukaryotic cell cycle. Each question has only one best answer but answer choices may be used more than once. -nuclear division A)G₂ B)mitosis C)S D)G₁

Accepted Answer

The answer of Matching
Match the cellular process to the correct...

Question 18

Mutations in genes that control _____ are likely to cause cancer.​

Accepted Answer

Mutations in genes that control cell cycle checkpoints can lead to uncontrolled cell division, a hallmark of cancer.

Question 19

Matching Match the cellular process to the correct phase of the eukaryotic cell cycle. Each question has only one best answer but answer choices may be used more than once. -period in which metaphase occurs A)G₂ B)mitosis C)S D)G₁

Accepted Answer

Mitosis is the phase of the cell cycle that includes metaphase.

Note: None of the other phases listed specifically include metaphase.
