Identical and obviously duplicated gene sequences have gotten from one chromosome to another by chromosomal translocation.

In terms of genetics, a translocation takes place when chromosome fragments and the (often two) fragmented portions reassociate with other chromosomes. For the diagnosis of several genetic diseases and syndromes, the finding of chromosomal translocations can be crucial.

Multigene families are groups of related or identical genes that have developed by gene duplication. It is thought that a single ancestral gene was duplicated and varied to create multigene families. The multigene families that code for actins, hemoglobins, immunoglobulins, tubulins, interferons, histones, etc. are a few examples.

What is diffusion? Include in your explanation "area of high concentration" and "area of low concentration". Does diffusion occu
Luba_88 [7]

Answer:

Diffusion is the process of small molecules moving from a high concentrated area to a lower concentrated area. For example, in a crowded train station, when a train arrives, people move from the high concentrated area, which is the platform, and move onto the lower concentrated area, which is the trian.

Explanation:

The process of diffusion does not cost any energy, as it happens naturally, and would cost energy to go against it, like trying to go from the train into the platform costs more energy than just going with the crowd into the train. And only small molecules can do this without using energy. Large molecules, like starch, can't do this without using energy.(ATP) hopefully, this helped you, and it would mean a lot to me if you could give me brainliest!

jok3333 [9.3K]
Answer - D
Gametes always have half the number of chromosomes compared to the somatic cells, hence an unfertilized egg would have half the chromosomes from the mother, and a fertilized egg will contain diploid number of chromosomes. Half of them from inherited from each of the two parents.
