Nuclei in somatic cells of the freshwater alga Draparnaldia plumosa have 13 chromosomes. In the closely related species Draparna

ldia acuta, nuclei in somatic cells have 26 chromosomes.
Which of the following is correct:
a. Gametes of Draparnaldia acuta should contain 13 chromosomes.
b. Draparnaldia plumosa zygotes contain 26 chromosomes; meiosis should occur after fertilization.
c. Draparnaldia acuta is a diploid organism; the expected n number for its haploid gametes is 13.
d. Draparnaldia plumosa is a monoploid organism with n = 13.

Answer:

b. <em>Draparnaldia plumosa</em> zygotes contain 26 chromosomes; meiosis should occur after fertilization.

Explanation:

<em>Draparnaldia plumosa </em>is a freshwater green algae. The thallus of this species is haploid. Each cell of the thallus has 13 chromosomes in its nucleus. During sexual reproduction thallus forms gametes through mitosis. After fertilization between isogametes, a diploid zygote is formed having 26 chromosomes. Zygote undergoes meiosis to form haploid thallus.

Energy extraction and the complete oxidation of foodstuffs requires three stages. The energy extracted from fuels is converted t
frozen [14]

Note: Question lack some information i have added full question with answer as picture. see attachment.

Answer:

d. In the first stage, macro-molecules are converted to monomers, and a small amount of ATP is produced.

e. In the second stage, monomers are broken down, and a small amount of ATP is produced.

c. In the third stage, fuel molecules are completely oxidized to CO2, and no ATP is produced.

Explanation:

When we take food a process starts which is called as cellular respiration. Through this process the food energy is converted into cellular energy which will further used by body. During all this process oxygen and glucose are converted into water and carbon dioxide and energy in this process is converted into ATP.

In response to seasonal changes in temperature, many organisms must alter the composition of their plasma membranes to maintain
aleksandrvk [35]

Answer:

C. a decrease in phospholipid fatty acid side chain length and a decrease in side chain saturation

Explanation:

Temperature is a factor that has a huge impact on cell membrane structure, more precisely its fluidity. So, for example, if temperature increases, the cell membrane becomes more fluid because the fatty acid tails of the phospholipids become less rigid.

A scientist has discovered a new organism and wishes to classify it based on morphology and genetics. While he is waiting on the
Ipatiy [6.2K]

Answer:

tentatively group it with birds and speculate that the trait shared only with bats is a derived rather than an ancestral trait with bats.

Explanation:

The scientist after his observation should tentatively classify this organism with birds and the the second end of calculating the other morphological traits which makes it possess the likely bat traits to be ancestral.

According to scientists, most widely used modern systematic practice

depends upon the assumption that a change from character in one species

to character occurs once and once only in the evolutionary process and that this process is irreversible so that it never returns.

In this scheme, there are no independently derived parallel evolutionary changes,

nor convergences from a variety of states to a single one. Therefore, when two organisms share a

character state different from other species, it is because they are more closely related to each other through a recent common ancestor than they are to other species.

Also using the parsimony principle, a scheme of common ancestry for all the species is derived that uses all the characters that have been observed.
