Acentric chromosomes, which lack centromeres, can form as a result of chromosome breakage or as a consequence of inversion with
Furkat [3]

Answer:

It wouldn't be able to migrate to the cell's poles.

Explanation:

During anaphase, microtubules attach the chromosome's centromeres and start dragging them towards the poles of the cell. In mitosis, this causes the separation of both sister chromatids for each chromosome, and each chromatid migrates to a different pole. In meiosis, first each homologous chromosome is separated by the same process, and then the sister chromatids are separated during anaphase II. If a chromosome doesn't have centromeres, microtubules are unable to attach the chromosomes, and so the separation of either sister chromatids or homologous chromosomes can't take place.

The speed of light is approximately 3 × 108 meters per second (m/sec). The speed of light written in standard numerical form is
slega [8]
If the The speed of light is approximately 3 × 108 meters per second (m/sec) so the speed of light written in standard numerical form is 300,000,000  m/sec. You will just simply move the place holders to 8 places to the right since the exponent is a positive number. So 3^8= 3x100000000 which is equal to 300,000,000 .

The plants in a red-tailed hawk’s food chain produce 3 million kcal of chemical energy per day. How much energy is available to
KATRIN_1 [288]

The amount of total energy at each trophic level decreases as it moves through, so 90% is lost at each level. This means that only 10 percent of the energy at any trophic level is transferred to the next level; and the rest is lost as heat.  

In this case, if a plant ecosystem has 3000000 kilocalories (kcal) of energy, about 300000 kcal will be transferred to primary consumers (for example grass hoppers). If the red-tailed hawks are tertiary consumers, they will get 3000 kcal of energy.
