Answer: Haploid number

In normal humans, sex cells contain the diploid number of chromosomes

Explanation;

Human somatic cells or body cells are diploid such that they contain two sets of 23 chromosomes which gives a total of 23 chromosomes. Examples of somatic cells in the body that are diploid include, epithelial cells, somatic cells, liver cells, blood cells, nerve cells, etc.

However, mature sex cells are haploid, which means they have one set of 23 chromosomes which means they have 23 chromosomes. Sex cells are the results of meiosis type of cell division in which a diploid cell divides to form four daughter cells that are haploid.

Answer:

C. transcribed, mRNA

Explanation:

DNA, also known as deoxyribonucleic acid, is a molecule that holds genetic information needed to make other molecules in living organisms. However, before this genetic information can be harnessed, it needs to be expressed via two processes called transcription and translation.

Transcription is the first of the two processes that take place during genetic expression. It involves the synthesis of mRNA molecule from a DNA template. In other words, the DNA must first be TRANSCRIBED into mRNA.

If the mother is heterozygous and the father is heterozygous what is the genotype probabilities?
PSYCHO15rus [73]
So we’ll just use “R” and “r” for this example. If the mother AND father are heterozygous, then both of their genotypes are “Rr” if you work out the lumber square or use the foil method, the box would look like this: RR on top left, Rr on top right, Rr on bottom left, and rr on bottom right. So the genetic probabilities, using four as the sum would be 1:2:1
