Diploid nuclei of the ascomycete Neurospora crassa contain 14 chromosomes. A single diploid cell in an ascus will undergo one ro
und of meiosis, followed in each of the daughter cells by one round of mitosis, producing a total of eight ascospores. If a single, diploid G₂ nucleus in an ascus contains 400 nanograms (ng) of DNA, then a single ascospore nucleus of this species should contain how much DNA (ng), carried on how many chromosomes? A. 100 ng on 7 chromosomes B. 100 ng on 14 chromosomes C. 200 ng on 7 chromosomes D. 200ng on 14 chromosomes

<h3>What is chromosome?</h3>
A chromosome is a lengthy DNA molecule that contains all or a portion of an organism's genetic code.
Histones, which serve as packing proteins for the majority of eukaryotic chromosomes, work with chaperone proteins to attach to and condense the DNA molecule in order to preserve the integrity of the molecule.
A chromosome's primary purpose is to transport genetic material from one generation to the next.
Gene control, protein synthesis, and cellular replication are all functions of chromosomes. DNA may be precisely duplicated during these cell divisions thanks to chromosomes.
Chromosomes come in four different types: metacentric, sub-metacentric, acrocentric, and telocentric.
My guess would be H₂O/ water, since osmosis is a form of passive transport and I can't see the model the question references. Gases like O₂/ oxygen, CO₂/ carbon dioxide, and simple sugars like glucose can also pass through a cell membrane with passive transport though.
Identifying the fossil is the first step. We have already identified this fossil as a clamshell. We know clam are from the sea, but if you didn't, you could conclude this from knowing where you found the fossil (likely near the beach). Discovering where it is can also lead you to a conclusion on it's arrival as a fossil, perhaps washed up on shore or buried by an animal.
Complementary sequence: Nucleic acid sequence of bases that can form a double- stranded structure by matching base pairs. For example, the complementary sequence to C-A-T-G (where each letter stands for one of the bases in DNA) is G-T-A-C.
