How are mitosis and meiosis similar

they both produce new cells(apex)

they both have prophase and metaphase (anaphase)

They both involve duplicating chromosomes.

they both have simular steps.

What happens during interphase

the chromosomes are duplicated.

What is the purpose of transcription

Transcription is the process in which part of the nucleotide sequence of DNA is copied into a complementary sequence RNA. Transcription is helps to preserve the spoken way that allows it to be easily stored and examined in the future. Transcription allows a piece to be referenced in the future.

What is produced by meiosis

Reproductive cells-- egg or sperm cells--or produced by meiosis.

Which two DNA samples are the most similar

The question itself is not clear. Two cells that have just divided will have the MOST similar DNA. If we are talking about whole organisms or individuals, then clones would have the most similar DNA, similarly identical twins would have near identical DNA. Siblings have very similar DNA but not identical of course.

Why did mendel use pea plants in his experiment

They produce many offspring

What would a drug that damages capsids help treat a viral infection

Capsids provide protection for viruses. Apex

How are tumor cells different from normal cells

Mitosis is not regulated in tumor cells. This can cause the rapid proliferation of a large number of non-functional cells, whose only actions are to divide into more cells.

Tumor cells multiply too quickly.

How are the lysogenic and lysogenic and lytic cycles different

: During the lysogenic cycle, the cell is not killed.

A plant can have either brown B or red b leaves Brown is the dominant trait If a plant has genotype bb which best describes the plant

Homozygous with brown leaves

An organism that reproduces sexually has a diploid number of 30 How many chromosomes will a gamete of this organism have

A gamete has half the diploid number of chromosomes, so in this case, the gamete would have 15 chromosomes.

What was the purpose of Mendel's experiments with dihybrid crosses

He wanted to determine if traits affected each other, and concluded (based on his observations) that they did not.

+ To find out if traits could affect the inheritance of other traits.

to determine if traits affected each other

Which best describes how common cold spread in the human body

Iceberg concept of viral infection best describes how common cold spreads in the human body.

A scientist makes an image of all of a person's chromosomes what technique is she using
