Answer:
During <u>fertilization</u>, chromosomes from haploid gametes combine, and a <u>diploid</u> zygote is formed.
Explanation:
Fertilization is the union of the male gamete(haploid chromosomes) with the female gamete(haploid chromosome) to form a diploid cell called zygote (with diploid chromosomes).
Answer:
The correct option is e
Explanation:
An inversion mutation is a situation in which a sequence of the gene on a chromosome breaks out and rearranges itself from reverse (to the beginning) and then attaches itself back to the point of breakage of the same chromosome.
From the question, mutation changed the gene sequence from ABC*DEFGH to ABC*DGFEH. From this mutation, it can be seen that the gene sequence "EFG" broke-out, rearranged itself from reverse to the beginning as "GFE" and then attached itself back to the points of breakage.
NOTE: This type of inversion is called paracentric inversion since the centromere (represented as * in the question) is not part of the breakage.
Answer:
3) Temperature
4) gill covering opening and closing per minute
5)as temperature rises, the rate of gill covering opening and closing per minute increase until the temperature reaches 27℃ where the rate decreases
Explanation:
4) you can adjust and control the temperature in an experiment
5) you can't control the gill opening and closing rate
