Independent assortment of chromosomes is a result of
a) the random and independent way in which each pair of homologous chromosomes lines up at the metaphase plate during meiosis i.
b) the random nature of the fertilization of ova by sperm.
c) the random distribution of the sister chromatids to the two daughter cells during anaphase ii.
d) the relatively small degree of homology shared by the x and y chromosomes.

You have been asked to lead a demonstration for the undergraduate microbiology lab course about the uses of negative staining when studying bacteria. a "negative" stain does not stain the bacterial cell itself but stains the space between cells. under magnification, the acidic (negativelycharged) nature of the stain will be repelled by the negatively charged bacterial cell wall and willleave the cell colorless in a stained background. negative stains are used primarily to reveal the presence of negatively charged bacterial capsules; therefore, they are also called capsule stains. encapsulated cells appear to have a halo surrounding them. the negative stain procedure does not require heat fixation, which limits any chances of alteration in bacterial cell shape and size. the bacterial suspension is added to a drop of stain, such as nigrosin or eosin, and drawn across the glass slide using a coverslip.nigrosin staining-not safranin staining-of klebsiella pneumoniae will allow for the visualization of the cell shape and the determination of the presence of a capsule.true/false

Below, the levels of organization in a multicellular organism are shown from least to most complex. which level of organization can be described as several different types of tissues working together to perform a common task?

Photosynthesis uses co2 and cellular respiration produces co2. we call the point when the two processes are in balance--when there is no net production of co2--the compensation point. how might you limit one of the processes in order to achieve a compensation point?
