When a cell is in G2 phase, it has already doubled in S phase its DNA, meaning that for each chromosome we have two chromatids -> 2n(number of chromosomes)×2(number of chromatids per chromosome)=number of chromatids.
If 160 is the number of chromatids on G2 phase of a chicken cell, it means that the cell has 80 chromosomes (2n), and after meiosis, process to form a sperm cell, will only have 40 chromosomes (n).

How can waves shape earth's surface
mariarad [96]

Hey there,

There are many ways waves can shape Earth's surface. For example, the waves can constantly brush up against a rocky ledge or cliff, and it can shape the cliff. It can change it's shape and/or form and can break away the rock or land. The waves can also bang against the rock, making it loose and the rock shapes itself by falling off or apart. This is otherwise known as erosion.

Best Of Luck,

- I.A. -

Gametes, which are sex cells, carry the alleles. Why must a gamete carry one allele (represented by a letter) from each gene? Me
ser-zykov [4K]

Answer:

Due to the law of independent assortment

Explanation:

In diploid species like humans, all somatic (body) cells have two complete sets of chromosomes, one chromosome inherited from the maternal gamete and one chromosome inherited from the paternal gamete. Each one of the homologous chromosomes contains one copy of each gene, or allele, such that one allele is inherited from each parent. According to the law of independent assortment, maternal and paternal chromosomes are independently assorted during meiosis, which means that different genes localized on different chromosomes are randomly distributed into gametes. In consequence, alleles of different genes are transmitted from parents to offspring independently of one another.
