<span>Since alkylating agents work to prevent the cell from replicating its genetic material, the cell would most likely stop at the interphase checkpoint, which is the phase before mitosis (which consists of prophase, metaphase, anaphase, and telophase). During interphase, the cell replicates its genetic material (DNA), but this would be prohibited by alkylating agents.</span>

The mechanism that breaks the linkage between linked genes is
gregori [183]

Answer:

Crossing over

Explanation:

Crossing over is the process during which two chromatids of two homologous chromosomes exchange part of their genetic segments. It occurs during the pachytene stage of prophase I of meiosis I.

Linked genes are mostly inherited together and do not exhibit independent assortment. However, when linked genes are present far apart from each other on the same chromosome, crossing over can occur between them to produce recombinant chromatids. Therefore, crossing over can break the linkage and produce recombinant progeny as it occurs during the independent assortment of unlinked genes.

Fill in the blank. Giraffe necks and mice necks have the same number of vertebrae, despite their different sizes and functions.
den301095 [7]

Answer:

homologous structure

analogous structure

natural selection

This is known as an analogous structure.

To make this determination, you need to think about if the features are the same in function or also in structure. Features that have a closely related structure and function are likely to be related.

To learn more about why your friend is in the hospital, you should research vestigial structures.

These two beetles aren't closely related, but they look and behave similarly. This is because they live in the same environmental conditions and likely share a common ancestor that lived in Gondwana (the supercontinent that included the southern continents before they split apart through plate tectonics).

Australia has so many genetically distinct organisms because it has been separated from other bodies of land by water for a very long time. This has created an opportunity for long-term independence of other geographic areas.

In the energy profile of a reaction, the species that exists at the maximum on the curve is called the __________.
Gnesinka [82]
It is called the transition state species. They are a bit of a hybrid, or a halfway point between the structure of the reactants' structures and products' structures. Bonds in the transition state can be partially formed and are represented by a dotted line.

oee [108]

Answer:

D. All of the above.
