meiosis

Meiosis is the cell division in four daughter cells both with half the number of chromosomes of both parents cells I learned that meiosis that it starts with a parent cell that is diploid meaning that it got two copies of each chromosome. the process is four daughter cells that are haploid means that half the number of the chromosomes of the diploid parent cell. this all surprised me because I barley knew any of this and i barley knew anything about it.

    There was good information on here. All the information is correct. Your reflection is short and doesn't really have much on it.

    Good information. I'm not a big fan on how everything is all together. Don't forget about the stages. Where is your reflection?

Anaerobic Energy Production - MORGAN BANKS

Image
ANAEROBIC ENERGY PRODUCTION  Anaerobic Energy Production is one form of Cellular Respiration  This form requiers no oxygen  Is used for a fast burst of energy Occurs mostly in prokaryotes cells  Fermentation 1- lactic acid (makes muscles sore)  2- Alocholic REFLECTION - Anaerobic Production has no oxygen, therefore many of the things we do, do not involve anaerobic production! It involves the aerobic energy production. This is not only a good review for you but for me as well on how to justify the two.  http://slideplayer.com/slide/9078035/ MORE INFO: http://www.diffen.com/difference/Aerobic_Respiration_vs_Anaerobic_Respiration VIDEO/QUIZ:  http://study.com/academy/lesson/anaerobic-exercise-definition-benefits-examples.html

Genetic Variation: Mutations

Image
What is a mutation? A mutation is any change in the DNA sequence.  There are three types of mutations: * addition: One or more nucleotide base pairs are inserted into a DNA sequence (also called frameshift mutation)  *deletion: The removal of one or more nucleotides in a DNA sequence (also called frameshift mutation) *substitution: A mutation that exchanges one or more bases for another (also called point mutation) How do they occur & why? Mutations for randomly, but different mutations occur different ways.  Most of the time a mutation comes from radiation (so like the sun, X-rays, tanning salons, etc). Some mutations can be genetic though, like autism. Autism is caused when theres an extra chromosome. Another common mutation would be cancer. Cancer occurs when cells uncontrollably grow, and don't die.  Can it be prevented?  Unfortunately, mutations are random. The best way to prevent them is to protect yoursel...
