Answer:
The question lacks options, the options are:
A). the body cell has 2n; the sex cell has 1n.
B). the body cell has 26; the sex cell has two.
C). the body cell has 1n; the sex cell has 2n.
D). the body cell has 24; the sex cell has 26
The answer is A
Explanation:
According to the question, the snapping turtle possesses 52 chromosomes in its cell. This means that the chromosomal number of its body cell is 52. However, the turtle, which reproduces sexually will produce gametes or sex cells via meiosis. Meiosis is the kind of cell division that results in daughter cells (gametes) that have a reduced number of chromosomes (by half).
Based on this, the diploid cells (2n) of the turtle with chromosome number 52 will undergo meiotic division to produce haploid gametes or sex cells (n) with chromosome number 26.
N.B: Diploid (2n) means two complete sets of chromosomes while haploid (1n) means one complete set of chromosome.
The body cell of the turtle contains two set of chromosomes received from each parent, hence, making it Diploid (2n). However, meiosis will reduce the chromosome number to one set in each gamete i.e. haploid (n).
Answer:
A cell is placed in a highly concentrated salt solution. What will most likely happen to the cell if left in the solution? The cell will shrink in size, losing water due to osmosis.
Diploblastic blastopore - gastrovascular cavity
Protostome blastopore - mouth
Deuterostome blastopore - anus
Explanation:
Blastopores are structural indentations formed on the embryo during the gastrulation stage and this develops into mouth or anus depending upon the type of the embryo.
Diplolbastic (cnidarians) blastopores develop into the gastrovascular cavity in organisms like hydra
Triploblasts with three embryonic germ layers includes acoelomates, eucoelomates, and pseudocoelomates and the blastopores transform accordingly.
The blastopores of the triploblastic eucoelomates like the protosomes (mollusks, arthropods, annelids) transforms to the mouth, denoting ‘mouth first’; while that of the deuterostomes (chordates) transform to anus, denoting ‘mouth second’.

Answer:The control sample or the control group is a name given to a group of samples that are not treated with anything. They are left as it is. In this experiment, Dr. Lina Reyes wants to determine the effect of additional nitrogen to the fertilizer to the growth of the plants. Group B, which was given with fertilizer but without additional nitrogen is the control group. The Group A which was treated is the experimental group.
