A cell in the testes of a male bald eagle is getting ready to begin meiosis. The diploid number for this bird species is 66. How

many replicated chromosomes are there in this testicular cell at metaphase I? How many sister chromatids are there in metaphase I? In each daughter cell, how many sister chromatids are there in prophase II? How many chromosomes are there in each sperm cell?

Answer:

Replicated chromosomes at metaphase I = 66

Sister chromatids at metaphase I = 66 x 2 = 132

Sister chromatids at prophase II = 66

Chromosomes in each sperm cells = 33

Explanation:

Metaphase I of meiosis I would have 66 replicated chromosomes in the testicular cells of the bird. Each of the replicated chromosomes would have two sister chromatids. So, a total of 66 replicated chromosomes would have 66 x 2 = 132 sister chromatids.  

Due to segregation of homologous chromosomes towards opposite poles in anaphase I, each daughter cell formed by the end of meiosis I would have 33 replicated chromosomes. So, each of the daughter cells would have a total 33 x 2 = 66 sister chromatids at prophase II.  

Since meiosis II maintains the chromosome number, each sperm cell formed by the end of meiosis II would have 33 chromosomes.

Answer:

d) They would bind glucocorticoids, and initiate estrogen-dependent synthesis

Explanation:

Both Glucocorticoids and estrogens Hormones have important but distinct physiologic functions. These two hormones belongs to the two classes of steroid hormones. Both of these hormones binds to their specific receptors.

DNA binding domain is the domain that after activation by external factors such as hormones express the specific proteins by binding to specific region of the DNA.

As DNA binding domain of a glucocorticoid receptor is altered with DNA binding domain of estrogen receptor so it means binding site of the glucocorticoid hormone for glucocorticoid receptor remains the same and binds to glucocorticoids but on binding it activates the estrogen DNA binding domain which further binds to specific region in the DNA which initiates estrogen dependent synthesis.
