What does not provide evidence for evolution?

That which does not provide evidence for evolution is not necessarily something that tends to disprove evolution. So it is hard to narrow down to something relevant but does not provide evidence for evolution. As for something that actually tends to disprove evolution, this is equally hard but for different reasons - the evidence for evolution is so overwhelming that there is very little that can provide any form of contrary evidence.


At the end of mitosis 2 each parent cell becomes what numbero of gametes?

You mean meiosis. At the end of meiosis II, each diploid parent cell produces four haploid cells. In males, all four will become gametes called sperm cells. In females, one of the four haploid cells will receive the vast majority of cytoplasm and will become the female gamete, which is an ovum or egg cell. The other three cells will be reabsorbed.


Is the theory of the evolution of man by Charles Darwin true?

Darwin's theory of evolution is very well supported by scientific evidence. It has been accepted as true, by most biologists. Some controversy does remain, however, on religious grounds. Whether you choose to accept this theory is up to you.


Which sex chromosome do sperm cells carry?

Sperm cells are of two types. One type carries a Y chromosome, while the other type carries an X chromosome. This is the reason why the Spermatid is the 'deciding factor' in whether a baby will be male or female. The Ovum always carries an X chromosome.


Why is S fimicola an ideal organism for the demonstration of crossing-over?

because the location of the ascospores (haploid cell of sordaria) within the ascus shows whether or not crossing over took place. since the formation of ascospores occurs within an ascus, all of the daughter cells are packaged together. if crossing over did not take place, four black ascospores are grouped together next to four tan ascospores. using this as a subject, scientist are easily and accurately able to determine whether or not crossing over occured.

What are haploid bees?

When a queen lays an egg she chooses whether or not to fertilise it from her store of sperm. If she does, the resulting insect will be female; if not, it will be male. So, all female bees are diploid -- two sets of chromosomes, one from father, one from mother, and all male bees are haploid -- one set of chromosomes from the mother only.


What is metaphase a phase of?

It is a phase of the reproductive cycle of a cell. It is the part where the centrioles have separated and are drawing the chromosomes apart into two cell halves before they replicate the cell as a haploid or a diploid, depending on whether is a somatic cell or a sex cell.


Is the presence of large number of chromosomes in an organism a hindrance to sexual reproduction?

No. Sexual reproduction process does not depend upon the number of chromosomes in an organism. Chromosome numbers usually are expressed in sets. 2 sets of chromosomes are present in body cells of organisms. For example, human bears 23 pairs which means 46 numbers of chromosomes. The cells with 2 sets of chromosomes are called diploid cells (2n) and haploid cells contain only one set (n) of chromosomes. Gamete cells are always haploid which are obtained by meiosis cell division of diploid cells. In sexual reproduction fusion of two haploid gametes (male and female) results in formation of zygote which id diploid.So, the number of chromosomes present ina cell whether it is small (cat - 38 chromosomes) or large (butterfly- 380 chromosomes) does not affect sexual reproduction.


Why is it important to have haploid gametes?

To prevent the chromosome number from doubling every generation.Sexual reproduction involves two cells (gametes) combining their chromosomes. The process is fertilization, and the product is a zygote.If each gamete has a single set of chromosomes (as happens in humans, most other animals, and many plants) the zygote will have two sets of chromosomes. Whatever the zygote grows into, whether a person, pelican, or pineapple, every cell in the body will have two sets. If the gametes also have two sets each, the next zygote will have four, and so on, until you need a wheelbarrow to carry your chromosomes around!So every life-cycle that includes a doubling of the chromosome number also includes a halving, and that process is called meiosis. Meiosis occurs at different times in different life-cycles. In humans meiosis happens when the gametes are being formed, but in plants it happens when spores are being formed.

What is information showing whether an idea or belief is true or valid?

Evidence is information that supports the truth or validity of an idea or belief. It can take different forms, such as data, facts, expert opinions, or research studies. Gathering sufficient evidence is essential in evaluating the credibility of an idea or belief.


What is the meaning of associative evidence?

Associative Evidence is evidence that links two separate entities, whether they are people or objects. In other words, associative evidence relates to the evidence that links a person (or object) to the scence of the crime.


What is a map hearing?

A "Mapp" hearing is a pre-trial hearing on whether or not to suppress a piece of evidence that is going to be introduced at trial. The evidence could be tangible evidence, such as an illegal substance, or intangible evidence, such as a confession.
