Why do cells undergoing mitosis require one set of divisions, whereas those undergoing meiosis require two sets of divisions? what is the end result of meiosis?

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: Mitosis, you see, is somatic (body) cell division, and the DNA in the nucleus during Interphase can replicate by doubling the chromosomes before the actual mitosis or cell division process of splitting into TWO identical cells (and they function the same with the same number of identocal chromosomes too! So they are called Diploid cells with 46 chromosomes!)

Meiosis is sperm/egg division and must divide twice to produce FOUR sperm or egg cells. Sperm goes through I- PMAT just like mitosis, but goes through PMAT again after that! They create four Haploid gametes (sex cells) with 23 chromosomes so that when an egg and a sperm unite in sexual reproduction, the zygote (fertilized egg) will have exactly 46 chromosomes like the normal number of chromosomes in a somatic cell. ^^

Using credible sources, such as NASA, research the typical climate conditions in coniferous forests. Explain why the structure of pinecones helps ensure successful reproduction in coniferous forests.

Answers

Answer:

Precipitation in coniferous forests varies from 300 to 900 mm annually, with some temperate coniferous forests receiving up to 2,000 mm/ year (79 in/year). The amount of precipitation depends on the forest location. In the northern boreal forests, the winters are long, cold and dry, while the short summers are moderately warm and moist. In the lower latitudes, precipitation is more evenly distributed throughout the year.

         The climate conditions of coniferous trees normally have summer temperatures that range from -40°F to 68°F with seasons ranging with an average of cold, long, snowy winters, and warm, humid summers. With defined 4 seasons, and at least 4-6 frost-free months. The precipitation has about 12 to 35 inches of rain each year. The in these areas of course the vegetation they have is coniferous trees, but the main dominant trees are pines, spruces, firs, and larches. With mosses, liverworts, and lichens covering the main ground.
