Answer:

A sperm cell

Explanation:

A diploid cell has 46 chromosomes which is normally signified by somatic cells. Germ cells or gametes are haploid cells therefore they contain only 23 chromosomes. Male gamete contains 22 autosomes and one sex chromosome. That sex chromosome can be X or Y.

Female gamete does not have Y chromosome as a sex chromosome, it has only X chromosome as a sex chromosome. So Y chromosome in a human cell which have 22 autosomes determines that it is a male gametic cell or a sperm cell. Sperm cells that have a Y chromosome if fuses with female gamete produce male offspring(XY).  

So the correct answer is- a sperm cell.

<h3>Transitional fossils</h3>

Transitional fossils are any fossilized remains of a life form which show common traits to both an ancestral group and its derived descendant group.

<em> Australopithecus afarensis </em>is a hominid that represents an evolutionary transition between modern bipedal humans and their quadrupedal ape ancestors.

Similarities in DNA

All species in the world share some amount of DNA. Species that are more related to each other share bigger amount of DNA than species that are less related. For example fruit fly and modern humans share 61% of their genome and chimps and humans share 96%.

Evolution of the eye

The PAX6 gene controls where eyes develop in animals ranging from fruit flies, octopuses, to mice and humans.

If the ancestral form for a particular lineage was aquatic and used gills for respiration, what changes would you expect to see
Marat540 [252]
<h2>The Respiration of Gills</h2>

Explanation:

  • A dominant part of aquatic animals like fish and prawns inhale through uncommon organs called gills.
  • The skin that help in utilizing oxygen broke up in water. which help in return of gases and Gills contain veins.
  • Amphibian life forms have a unique organ called gills, which permits them to inhale oxygen in the water.
  • The two sides of the pharynx (throat) by the Gills when the gases exchange in fish .
  • <em>Gills are tissues that resemble short strings, protein structures called fibers. </em>
  • These fibers have numerous capacities including the exchange of particles and water, just as the trading of <em>oxygen, carbon dioxide, acids and alkali.</em>

When you stub your toe, you first feel a quick, sharp pain transmitted by _______, and then a moment later, a dull, throbbing pa
Zielflug [23.3K]

Answer: The correct answer to the question is option A

A-delta fibers; C fibers

When you stub your toe, you first feel a quick, sharp pain transmitted by A-DELTA FIBERS, and then a moment later, a dull, throbbing pain transmitted by C FIBERS

A-delta fibers are sensory nerve fibers that stimulate pain receptors,they transmit sensory information while C fibers are class if fibers found in the somatic sensory system,they are afferent fibers that conveys input signals from the periphery to the central nervous system.

Explanation: When one stubs the toe,the second-fastest nerve fibers carry messages not from the touch receptors, but the pain receptors; that explains the sharp pain a split second after the thud. They cause what's called second pain, the throbbing pain you feel a few seconds after you stub your toe.

When the toe is stubbed,the impact is felt first before the pain, you're slamming it with a force that is equal to 2-3 times your body weight. (that's about the same force as a karate punch) since the toe has a tiny surface area, that force can't spread out. So the pain stays concentrated at the point of impact before pain is felt,this happens as a result of nerve fibers processing the painful stimuli which brings about that feelings/sensation of pain,and it reverts back after the painful stimulus has been removed.

Stubbing of the tie brings about throbbing toe pain, swelling and bruising.
