Answer #1

QUESTION 13

The main purpose of mashing the fruit is to break down the cell wall. Remember that plant cells posses a defined cell wall that must be disrupted or weakened in order to extract the DNA. Of course, mashing the fruit is not enough to disrupt entirely the cell wall. For this reason, a detergent is used. The detergent will dissolve the lipids of the cell wall (it also dissolve the cell and nuclear membrane).

    Can someone please check my answer? Understanding chromosome number and behavior during cell division is an important concept in genetics. Fill out the chart below for each phase of mitosis in terms of N (where N = haploid number). For example, humans have a haploid number of 23. There are 46 chromosomes (2N) present in prophase of mitosis. Each chromosome is present in its replicated form (i.e. as sister chromatids) so there will be 2 chromatids per chromosome and the...
