Somatic cells of roundworms have four individual chromosomes per cell. How many chromosomes would you expect to find in an ovum
andrezito [222]

Answer:

2 chromosomes

Explanation:

The cell of an eukaryotic organism like roundworm contains the Nucleus, which harbors the genetic material embedded in the chromosome. The number of chromosomes of that organism is contained in each cell.

Somatic cells, also called body cells, are all other cells asides sperm and eggs, that form the tissues and organs of an organism. Somatic cells are usually diploid i.e two sets of chromosomes from each parent. In this question, the roundworm has 4 chromosomes in its somatic cell.

The reproductive cells or sex cells (sperm and eggs) of an organism always result from meiotic division of specialized cells.

Since meiosis is a kind of division that results in cells with their chromosome number reduced by half (haploid), it therefore means that the ovum and sperm cell will be expected to contain 2 chromosomes each.

This way, when fertilization occurs (sperm and egg fusion), the resulting zygote, which will eventually develop into an adult organism, will have 4 chromosomes.

The fraction of offspring with black coat color and straight fur is 9/16.

Explanation:

Information given:

black coat colour and straight fur - dominant genotype BBCC, BbCc

yellow coat colour and curly fur - recessive genotype  bbcc

Both the traits are independently assorted. The fur colour and fur type is not present on the same chromosome and are not sex linked.

The genotype of the parents are:

BbCc X BbCc

Punnet square shows:

          BC           Bc          bC        bc

BC  BBCC   BBCc        BbCC   BbCc

Bc  BBCc   BBcc          BbCc    Bbcc

bC BbCC    BbCc         bbCC   bbCc

bc  BbCc      Bbcc         bbCc    bbcc

9 BLACK STRAIGHT

 3 BLACK CURLY

 3 YELLOW STRAIGHT

  1  YELLOW CURLY

9/16 is the fraction of progeny to be black coat colour and straight fur.

What is the relationship between increased carbon in the ocean and increased carbon in the soil?
zhuklara [117]

Answer:

What is the relationship between increased carbon in the ocean and increased carbon in the soil?

How else might carbon be transferred to soil? Direct because as you increase 1 you increase the other due to the terrestrial plant and oceanic plankton requirements of water, nutrients and CO2.

A laboratory assistant prepared solutions of 0.2 M, 0.4 M, 0.6 M, and 0.8 M sucrose but forgot to label them. After realizing th
Debora [2.8K]

Answer:

To determine the flask on basis of the molarity or concentration of the solutions, an individual should design an experiment with the help of using water and dialysis tubes. Dialysis tubes up should be filled with pure water, then seal or closed them from both ends.

Measure the weight and note the mass of each tube, student should stick label the cups with the solutions. Weighing the solutions after leaving them for 8 to 10 hours. The tubes would lose weight as water leave the tube when placed in the solutions due to the principle of diffusion- movement.
