  • In a haploid organism most mitosis occurs?

    a) after fertilization and before meiosis

    b) after meiosis and before fertilization

    c)between meiosis I and II

    d) during G1

    e) in diploid cells

    I thought it was after fertilization and before meiosis, but it was wrong. I'm also confused because I thought diploid cells were the ones to go under mitosis. I'm not sure if I'm supposed to consider how meiosis II is very similar to mitosis. I'm starting to think that the answer is b) after meiosis and before fertilization, but I'm not very sure.

  • Exponential Equation with e?

    The average time between incoming calls at a

  • Is it okay to think about dying?

    I feel like crap. I feel that I have lost control of my life and that I am a disappointment. Sometimes I feel like dying and I think about it. I think about what it would be like to die, how it would feel. I know that I will not act upon these thoughts. I wouldn't consider myself suicidal because I do not think about killing myself. However, I do not know if it is okay to simply think about dying. It's just that the idea of death appeases me and knowing that I will one day die brings me peace. Please help me figure out whether thinking this way is wrong.
