Answer:
Mitotic Phase
Explanation:
During mitosis, the two sister chromatids that make up each chromosome separate from each other and move to opposite poles of the cell.
(B) 142.
(C) 141.
(D) 429.
(E) 428.
An mRNA of 429 nucleotides will form a polypeptide chain with 143 amino acids, assuming each codon (set of 3 nucleotides) corresponds to an amino acid and the stop codon is not counted.
For the synthesis of protein in a process known as translation, each triplet set of nucleotides in the mRNA, called a codon, identifies a specific amino acid. Hence, an mRNA of 429 nucleotides would be segmented into a set of 3 to form the different codons for the amino acids. Since 429 divided by 3 is 143, the polypeptide chain resulting from this mRNA would have 143 amino acids.
In this case, the correct answer would be (A) 143. This calculation does not take into account the stop codon that does not correspond to an amino acid, but usually examination questions ignore the effect of the stop codon. To provide the most accurate answer, we would need to know if the mRNA sequence includes the stop codon or not.

Meiosis II typically produces four cells, each of which is haploid.
Haploid cells contain half the number of chromosomes as the original cell and are used in sexual reproduction to form a new organism with unique genetic information.
During meiosis II, the two daughter cells produced from meiosis I undergo another round of cell division, resulting in four haploid cells. These haploid cells are then used in fertilization to form a zygote with the full complement of chromosomes.
