This is a type of cell division where 4 haploid cells are formed. 

A: Mitosis   B:Meiosis  C: Gametes  D: Sexual

B - Meiosis 

Meiosis is used for sexual reproduction. It has two rounds of cell division making four haploid daughter cells called gametes.

This is a phase in both mitosis and meiosis. In this phase chromosomes form. 

A: Anaphase  B: Interphase C:Telophase  D:Prophase

D - Prophase. 

•DNA begins to form into chromosomes

•The chromosomes are X shaped because the two copies of DNA made during replication are still attached

This is the correct match up for nitrogen bases pairs. 


A: Adenosine + Guanine, Cytosine + Thymine

B: Cytosine + Adenosine, Guanine + Thymine 

C: Thymine + Adenosine , Guanine + Cytosine

C - Thymine + Adenosine, Guanine + Cytosine

This animal has the highest blood pressure... A: Giraffe, B: Blue Whale, C: Elephant, D: Flea

What is A: Giraffe. Because of its extremely long neck, the giraffe must rely on its oversized heart (two feet long and twenty-five pounds!) to pump blood all the way to its head. As a result, the giraffe has the highest blood pressure of any animal: 280/180 mmHg (millimeters of mercury) at heart level when prone -- more than twice the blood pressure of an average human. Not surprisingly, because of their high blood pressure, giraffes are prone to heart attacks.

The planets make up this percentage of the mass in our solar system... A: 0.0135 %, B: 0.135 %, C: 1.35 %, D: 13.5 %

B: 0.135 % of the mass in our solar system. The Sun dominates, accounting for 99.86 % of the entire solar system's mass.
