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.

<em>A constant is something whose value cannot be changed and is used for comparison purpose. </em>

<u>Explanation:</u>

The controlled variable is a type of variable whose value is kept constant during the experiment to get the desired or expected result. The difference between constant and a control variable is that the constant can never be changed.

However, the value of control variable can be changed but is kept constant with a purpose in an experiment to get the data. The controlled variable in a battery can be the multi meter that should be used for all the batteries.
