Pangolins are capable of reproducing when they are two years old. which of the following is necessary for any individual pangolin to reproduce? a. the ability to bear multiple young at once b. the ability to fight off predators c. the ability to survive until it reproduces d. the ability to produce milk to feed its offspring the answer on study island is c. the ability to survive until it reproduces.

 The correct answer is C. The ability to survive until it reproduces.

In order for any individual organism, including a pangolin, to reproduce, it must survive long enough. For pangolins, this means surviving at least two years. Females, in addition, must survive through gestation so that they can give birth. It is not necessary that they bear multiple young or fight off predators, so long as they can avoid or survive predators. Only female pangolins need to be able to lactate—or produce milk—if they want their offspring to survive to adulthood.

interphase

the period of cell growth when the cell synthesizes new molecules and organelles. the cell is not dividing and it constitutes the majority of the time spent in the cell cycle

prophase

changes occur in the nucleus and cytoplasm. the chromatin condenses to form structures (sister chromatids) visible with a light microscope and the mitotic spindle begins to form, but the nucleus is still in tact

prometaphase

the nuclear envelope fragments and the spindle microtubules attach to the kinetochores of the sister chromatids

metaphase

all the cell's duplicated chromosomes are lined up at an imaginary plane equidistant between the poles of the mitotic spindle

anaphase

begins when sister chromatids separate from each other and ending when a complete set of daughter chromosomes arrives at each of the two poles of the cell

telophase

the daughter nuclei form at the two poles of a cell

cytokinesis

the division of a cytoplasm to form two separate daughter cells. usually occurs during telophase during mitosis. this and mitosis make up to mitotic (m) phase of the cell cycle

the answer is 95 degrees
