The cells could have all been produced via asexual reproduction from a single virus cell, or have been rroduced for by normal reproduction. In this sense, the daughter cells would contain the same nucleic aid, as they come from the same virus cell.

What happens to your body if you do not have nucleic acids in your diet and can you get any diseases?

It would be very hard to not get any nucleic acids in your diet unless you ate only foods made entirely synthetically without anything from biological origins, as all living things contain nucleic acids.Yes, without nucleic acids in your diet much of your metabolism would eventually shut down as the ATP used for energy storage is synthesized from the nucleotide adenine in nucleic acids, cell replication and tissue repair following injuries would stop as the nucleic acids needed by the new cells' chromosomes could not be made, repair to genetic damage in the chromosomes would stop resulting in many problems, etc.


Why is it crucial that DNA copies itself before mitosis?

To ensure that newly formed cells are genetically identical to the organisms original diploid cells otherwise they could be cancerous to the organism


Could the resulting cells of mitosis be sperm cells?

No, the resulting cells of mitosis are identical copies of the original cell. Sperm cells are produced through a specialized cell division process called meiosis, which halves the number of chromosomes to create genetically diverse cells.


What is the hypothesis of onion cell?

The hypothesis of observing onion cells under a microscope could be that the onion cells will have a distinct rectangular shape and contain a visible nucleus.


Why do new copies of DNA have to be similar to the original strand?

New copies of DNA have to be identical to the original strand so that the cells can function properly. If mistakes are made in DNA replication, it could cause a mutation to occur. In body cells, that means the possibility of tumors, including cancer. In gametes (sperm and egg cells), this could mean are very harmful genetic disorder, or it could be so bad that the organism produced by fertilization may not be able to survive.

What is a textbox in Microsoft Excel?

A textbox can be drawn out over a spreadsheet and can contain text. It is separate to cells and does not contain formulas. It could be used for headings or other information as an alternative to putting them into cells.

How many copies of each cell are in cells?

2 one from the mother and one from the father assuming that it is of a diploid organism also if there is no genetic disease such as downs syndrome that could cause multiple copies of genes

They aren't. Life on earth could not exist without nucleic acids.


What does the medullary cords of a lymph node contain?

The medullary cords of a lymph node contain: reticular cells, lymphocytes, macrophages and plasma cells. It is important to understand that lymphocytes include both B cells and T cells. Note also that plasma cells derive from B cells. If asked a correct answer could be B cells and also plasma cells depending on the level of the material.

What are two observations a scientist could make about the leaf cells and chloroplasts?

Leaf cells contain chloroplasts. Photosynthesis occurs in the chloroplasts as they retain energy from the sun. Chloroplasts contain chlorophyll, which make leaves appear green.
