The answer is the second one: mitosis.

Explanation for each option:

  1. Fertilization: This is the process where a sperm cell and an egg cell combine to form a zygote. It is not a stage of cell division, so it would not be depicted as a cell going through division.

  2. Mitosis: This is the process of cell division where a single cell divides to produce two identical daughter cells. If the cell shown is undergoing division to produce identical cells, it is likely undergoing mitosis.

  3. Recombination: This typically refers to the exchange of genetic material between homologous chromosomes during meiosis, specifically during prophase I. It is not a process of cell division itself but a part of meiosis.

  4. Meiosis: This is the process of cell division that reduces the chromosome number by half, resulting in four genetically diverse daughter cells. It is used in the production of gametes. If the cell shown is undergoing a reduction division or forming gametes, it would be meiosis.

In summary, without additional context or a visual, the most straightforward assumption for a cell undergoing division is mitosis, unless specific features indicating meiosis or recombination are present.

Find an equation of the given line. (7/9, 8) and (-7/9, 7) on line Which equation below is the point-slope form of an equation of a line? A. y-x₁=m(x-y₁) B. y-y₁=m(x-x₁) C. Ax+By=C D. y=mx+b Find the slope of the line using the two given points. Recall that the slope is the change in y divided by the change in x. m=9/14 (Type an integer or a simplified fraction.) Now substitute the values for y₁, m, and x₁ into the point-slope equation. First substitute the values used in the equation, use the first ordered pair, (7/9, 8), in your calculations. y-□=m(x-x₁)
