Biology Questions

Replication of the DNA does not occur during Mitosis.

Sexual reproduction results in gametes that combine two cells from different individuals. Meiosis also produces gametes. Haploids contain one set of chromosomes in each of their cells. Diploids cells contain two chromosome sets. For plants, haploid and diploid cells divide via mitosis. The plants’ haploid phase is called the gametophyte, and the diploid phase is called the sporophyte.

Sporophytes are diploid plants that use meiosis to produce spores. These spores are haploid cells that grow into haploid gametophytes. Megaspores grow into female gametophytes, and microspores grow into male gametophytes.

Gametophytes are haploid plants that use mitosis to make haploid gametes. These gametes are female in the form of an ovum (egg) or male in the form of sperm.

Decomposers are organisms that break down dead or decaying organisms, and in doing so, they carry out the natural process of decomposition.

The statement "Decomposers are those organisms that recycle matter in the ecosystem" describes decomposers.

True, the given statement that a myocardial infarction is a heart attack.

Genes : The DNA is the genetic material. The DNA is made of several nucleotides. A nucleotide means, one nitrogenous base one sugar molecule and a phosphate molecule. These nucleotides occur in sequences and several nucleotides form one Gene ( a functional mgene is called a cistron)

Appetite is the desire to eat food, sometimes due to hunger. Appetite is triggered by environmental cues such as the smell or taste of food. Appealing foods can stimulate appetite even when hunger is absent.

The right ventricle transports deoxygenated blood to the lungs, where the oxygenation takes place.

Hence, the given statement is FALSE.

DNA is called the blueprint of life because it contains the instructions needed for an organism to grow, develop, survive and reproduce. DNA does this by controlling protein synthesis. Proteins do most of the work in cells, and are the basic unit of structure and function in the cells of organisms.
