How Many Ion Does The Element Boron Has?

Biology
1 answer:
Svetradugi [14.3K]3 years ago
8 0
Boron's atomic number is 5, so for its 5 protons, it should have 5 electrons if it's neutral.

To make it an ion, Boron's charge would have to be negative or positive. It could lose one electron to have a charge of +1, gain an electron to be -1 ion.

Ions aren't at specific number. So the answer depends on Boron's tendency to gain or lose electrons.

contrast the chromosome number in gametes and zygotes in sexual reproduction into your answer in the space provided
Mandarinka [93]

Answer:

Chromosome number in gametes- haploid (n)

Chromosome number in zygote- diploid (2n)

Explanation:

Sexually-reproducing organisms make use of gametes to reproduce. The gametes are produced via the process of meiosis, which is a cell division that results in daughter cells (gametes) that have their chromosomal number reduced by half. A diploid (2n) organism i.e. possess two set of chromosomes undergoes meiosis to produce haploid (n) gametes i.e. contains one set of chromosomes. The male parent produces haploid sperm while the female parent produces haploid egg.

During reproduction, these haploid gametes (sperm and egg) combine in a process called FERTILIZATION to produce a diploid ZYGOTE. The diploid zygote then divides and grows into the full organism. Hence, since a zygote is formed by the fusion of two haploid gametes (sperm and egg), it contains a diploid chromosome number i.e. sperm (n) + egg (n) = zygote (2n)

which of the following does a defect occur in chromosomes? A.Phosphase 2 B.Anaphrase 1 C, Metaphase 2
Eduardwww [97]

Answer:

From the given choices, the most appropriate answer would be B. Anaphrase 1.

Anaphase I is the stage of meiosis I in which homologous chromosomes are pulled towards opposite poles with the help of spindle fibers.

The chromosomal defect which can occur in this stage is "unequal distribution of chromosomes in two daughter cells".

It may occur when the spindle fiber fails to attach to a particular chromosome.

It leads to the production of daughter cell or gamete with extra or decreased number of chromosomes.

When these types of gametes fertilize with other gametes, it may result in aneuploidy in the resulting offspring.
