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

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.

Which of Mendels laws or principles explains that traits are passed from parents to offspring individually instead of pairs grou
emmasim [6.3K]
<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

The law of independent assortment

<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>
  • The Principle of Independent Assortment illustrates how different genes individually separate from one another when reproductive cells receive.
  • Independent assortment of genes and their similar traits was first mentioned by Gregor Mendel in 1865 during his studies of genetics in pea plants.
  • When two or more characters are acquired, individual hereditary factors classify independently during gamete production, giving distinct traits an equal opportunity of befalling together.
