- Figure 11.9 If a mutation occurs so that a fungus is no longer able to produce a minus mating type, will it still be able to reproduce?arrow_forwardWhen Paramecium conjugate: a. cytoplasmic division produces four daughter cells, eachhaving two micronuclei and two macronuclei. b. one haploid micronucleus in each cell remains intact; theother three degenerate. The micronucleus of each cell divides once, producing two nuclei, and each cell exchanges one nucleus with the other cell. In each partner the two micronuclei fuse, forming a diploid zygote micronucleus in each cell. c. the micronucleus of each of the disengaged partners divides meiotically. Macronuclei divide again in each cell, and the original micronucleus breaks down. Each cell has two haploid micronuclei; one of the macronuclei develops into a micronucleus. d. the mating cells join together at opposite sites of their oral depression. e. the micronucleus in each cell undergoes mitosis. When mitosis is complete, there are four diploid macronuclei; the micronucleus then breaks down.arrow_forwardAcross 11 |15.) process in which a 2n cell does through two successive divisions resulting in four nuclei each is now 1n 3 14 17 16.) the condition of having two sets of chromosomes per nucleus 9-1 10 18.) structure consisting mainly of 11 12 13 Down 14 Eytoplasm that forms and progressively deepens during cytokinesis of animal cells 15 16 17 18 19 10,) a pair of small cylindrical organelles lying at right angles to each lother near the nucleus inn the cytoplasm of animal cells 20 nt 2.arrow_forward

A haploid S. cerevisiae cell has 16 chromosomes. When certain haploids come into contact, they fuse their cell walls and membranes, followed by the fusion of their nuclear membranes. The single nucleus now has 32 chromosomes, 16 from each parent strain, and is thus a diploid. Haploid yeast strains divide mitotically to give rise to haploid progeny, and diploid strains divide mitotically to give rise to diploid progeny. Certain haploids can fuse to form diploids. Haploid S. cerevisiae exists in two "mating types," called a and a. Mating occurs only between a and a cells; no mating occurs between cells of identical mating type. We have a collection of eight a haploid mutant strains and eight a haploid mutant strains of yeast unable to synthesize tryptophan (trp). These will be combined (mated) in all possible combinations to yield diploid strains. If the diploids can grow on minimal medium,…arrow_forward

- I have a pet amoeba. It's name is Stretch. I look at stretch every day with my microscope, feed it, play with it, etc., like any good pet owner would. But one day, I notice that Stretch is really stretching out! And a few minutes later, Stretch has turned into two. Amoebas reproduce through mitosis, where they replicate all of their internal biology, then split themselves into two, each new cell carrying everything it needs to survive. Which one is Stretch? Both? How can that be, since things are only identical to themselves? We wouldn't call identical twins the same person, even though they are very similar to one another. Are neither Stretch? One but not the other? How would we determine that? Explain whatever it is that you think is true, and back it up with some reasoning. Be sure your response is at least 300 words.

The ancestor of mitochondria and chloroplasts original became part of mutualism with a larger host cell. Which of the following best explains this mutualism? A) The mitochondria and chloroplasts provided specialized reproduction as part of the proto-germ line while the larger host cell provided energy for growth and reproduction. B) The mitochondria and chloroplasts provided gene products that could be used by the larger host cell for improved parasitization. C) The mitochondria and chloroplasts provided molecular energy in return for protection by the larger host cell. D) The mitochondria and chloroplasts produce toxins that the larger cell utilized to defend itself from other cells mutually increasing the defense of all those involved.arrow_forwardTHIS IS A THREE PART QUESTION!
