Concept explainers
(a)
To determine:
The similarities and dissimilarities in the following related terms mitosis and meiosis.
Introduction:
Mitotic cell division is a type of division in which two daughter cells are formed each having the same number and same type of chromosome as the original. Meiosis is also a type of cell division that results in the production of four daughter cells with half the number of chromosome
(b)
To determine:
The similarities and dissimilarities in the following related terms chromatids and chromosome.
Introduction:
Both chromatids and chromosome are the structures that carry hereditary information from parental generation to their next generation. Both chromatids and chromosome play important role in cell division.
(c)
To determine:
The similarities and dissimilarities in the following related terms hypha and mycelium.
Introduction:
Hyphae and mycelium both the structure are present in
(d)
To determine:
The similarities and dissimilarities in the following related terms algal body and fungal body.
Introduction:
Algae are a simple eukaryotic organism that possesses chlorophyll that acts as a primary photosynthetic pigment. Fungi are the member of a eukaryotic organism that can digest food from outside and absorbs the nutrients through its cell wall.
(e)
To determine:
The similarities and dissimilarities in the following related terms water mold and slime mold.
Introduction:
Mold is the term that is used to refer to those fungi that are multicellular and have thread-like structures called hyphae
