Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

Answer:

A

Explanation:

It is believed that the moon was formed shortly (relative time) after the earth was newly formed. This occurred in a massive planet-sized collision that  ejected a huge chunk of the earth out into space. The chunk, still within earth gravitational reach, began orbiting the earth becoming the moon. Both earth and moon are slightly more than 4 billion years old.

Describe a similarity and a difference between meiosis I and meiosis II

Answers

Answer:

During meiosis 1, the parent cell with double the normal amount of chromosomes, splits into two diploid cells (have enough chromosomes to survive). During meiosis 2, the two diploid cells each split into two haploid cells (have half the amount of chromosomes to survive). Meiosis ends with four haploid cells.

Both Meiosis 1 and 2 have the same phases: Prophase, Metaphase, Anaphase and Telophase. One difference is that Meiosis 1 starts with a diploid cell and Meiosis 2 starts with 2 haploid cells, each with a homologous pair. ... Since there are no homologous pairs (only chromatids), recombination can not occur

Answers

All living things are either Eukarya, Bacteria or Archaea. These three broadest categories in the classification of life are called domains. Classifying organisms is nothing new for people as people have been concerned about classifying organisms for thousands of years. Aristotle the Greek philosopher was the first person to have classified organisms about 2000 years ago. Aristotle’s classification is still used today for classifying any new organisms that are discovered. Later on Carl Linnaeus worked on the already discovered model of Aristotle to create a different kind of classification system.
