In this case of trisomy 18, how many chromosomes would have been present in the first polar body?

Biology
1 answer:
lora16 [44]3 years ago
3 0
Polar bodies serve to eliminate one half of the diploid chromosome set in meiotic division in the egg, leaving behind a haploid cell. That means that 23 pairs (46) of chromosomes are going to be separated equally, 23 for the polar body and 23 for the egg cell. In case of trisomy 18, the division is not equal. Instead, the egg cell receives 23 +1 chromosomes and the polar body receives 23 - 1= 22 chromosomes.

That chromosome that was misplaced is the chromosome 18.

Dimas [21]

Answer:

The answers are c)are the most reinforcing, generate the greatest immediate sensual appeal, and produce the most powerful psychological dependence.

Explanation:

Like all psychoactive substances, amphetamines affect the central nervous system and have stimulating effects (empathy, sensuality, confusion, etc.), producing an alert state along with various reactions in perception. Some individuals also report optical and auditory illusions. On many occasions this is also favored by the existence of intense visual and auditory stimuli, as happens for example at parties. However, most of these desired effects have tolerance with repeated doses of the same substances and even cross tolerance with doses of other substances. With the appearance of this tolerance other effects appear such as aggressiveness, anxiety symptoms, panic attacks, etc.

Among the medical complications related to the use of these substances, acute neurological complications, seizures and cerebrovascular diseases stand out.

The condition Marfan syndrome results from the production of abnormal elastin, the main protein component of elastic fibers. Pre
Marina86 [1]

Answer:

Elastic fibers are made of elastin and microfibrils, that are elastic protein structures. The proteins can be stretched and resume normal shape. These fibers are found in parts of the body such as arteries, skin, lungs, connective tissue and heart that require some stretching. Marfan syndrome affects the elastic connective tissues causing symptoms like dilation of the aorta that doesn't resume normal lumen diameter (aortic aneurysm), and curving of the spine (scoliosis).

The lungs are unable to stretch and resume shape normally and this affects the respiratory system. The subjects will suffer from shortness of breath, wheezing and chest pain.

The sheath/endoneurium of neurons is connective tissue. This part of a neuron allows signals to travel effeciently along the axon of the neuron. This means that a person with Mafran syndrome has a slower response to stimuli that ordinary persons.

1. Which blood types are dominant?
marishachu [46]

Answer: 1). A and B are both dominant (because A and B are codominant to one another)

2). E. All of the above

Explanation:

1). From the image above, A and B are both dominant because they are equally expressed when they occur in a pair (when they occur as blood type AB), also they are dominant because each of them expressed itself when it occurs in a pair with a recessive allele (IAi and IBi).

2). The children of a father with A blood and a mother with B blood will have all the four blood types: A, B, AB, and O. If each parent has a recessive allele, that is if each parent is heterozygous for his/her blood type (IAi for the father and IBi for the mother), the cross between them will produce all the four possible blood types.

See the attached punnet square for more information.
