Dr. Alexander is a scientist who studies a certain type of fly. In his studies, he came across information that says that the fly doesn't need any calcium in its diet. This question interests him because he doesn't think it is true. He decides to create an experiment that will test whether this question is true. His hypothesis is that a fly will not live without calcium in its diet. Dr. Alexander believes that flies must have calcium in their diet. In one of Dr. Alexander’s experiments, he feeds one hundred flies a normal diet with calcium. Then he feeds one hundred more flies a diet without calcium. Over seven days he records the following data:

Fed Calcium Not Fed Calcium
Flies alive before test 100 100
Flies alive after test 92 10

Based off the data above what would be a valid conclusion Dr. Alexander could make?

Calcium is an essential part of a fly's diet.

The experiment did not provide definite results.

Calcium is a nonessential part of a fly’s diet.

Will mark brainliest i only need the ! 1.use ten beads and a centromere of one color to construct the long chromosome. use ten beads and a centromere of a second color to construct the second chromosome in the long pair. make a drawing of the chromosomes in the space below. 2. for the second pair of chromosomes, use only five beads. 3. now model the replication of the chromosomes. make a drawing of your model in the space below. part b: meiosis i during meiosis i, the cell divides into two diploid daughter cells. 4. pair up the chromosomes to form tetrads. use the longer tetrad to model crossing-over. make a drawing of the tetrads in the space below. 5. line up the tetrads across the center of your “cell.” then model what happens to the chromosomes during anaphase i. 6. divide the cell into two daughter cells. use the space below to make a drawing of the result. part c: meiosis ii during meiosis ii, the daughter cells divide again. 7. line up the chromosomes at the center of the first cell, one above the other. separate the chromatids in each chromosome and move them to opposite sides of the cell. 8. repeat step 7 for the second cell. 9. divide each cell into two daughter cells. use the space below to make a drawing of the four haploid cells
