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.

Answer 1
Answer: The answer is A) the random and independent way in which each pair of homologous chromosomes lines up at the metaphase plate during meiosis I. 

The law of independent assortment is the second Mendel's law. In independent assortment the alleles for different traits are passed independently to the offspring. It occurs during meiosis I. When in metaphase of meiosis I the chromosomes line up, mother's chromosomes can be on one side, and father's chromosomes on the other side of the equator or they can be mixed in a number of ways.

Which of the following best describes the velocity of an object ? A.) 30m/s
B.) 30m east
C.) 30m/s east
D.) 30m?s^2

Answers

Answer:

C.) 30m/s east  

Explanation:

Velocity has a speed and a direction. 30 m/s is a speed, and east is a direction.

The following best describes the velocity of an object - C.) 30m/s east.

Velocity is the speed with a direction and therefore, is a vector quantity. It includes the speed with the displacement.

  • It is the rate of speed and direction change in the position of an object.
  • Vector quantity is a measure or quantity that has magnitude and works in a particular direction.
  • velocity = distance / time
  • V = d/t direction
  • v = m/s east,
  • the meter is the unit of distance and second is the unit of time, and east is the direction

Thus, The following best describes the velocity of an object - C.) 30m/s east.
