The table shows the relative size of the genomes (total DNA in the nucleus), number of genes, and number of chromosomes for a va

riety of different organisms. What is the relationship between the complexity of an organism and the number of chromosomes that it has?

You don't show the table...but you should see that the more complex an organism, the more chromosomes and the more genes it has.

A bacteria has a small genome. perhaps it has about 5000 genes. it also has 1 chromosome.

Yeast are more complicated than bacteria. Saccharomyces cerevisiae (the yeast that makes beer, wine and bread, has about 6300 genes and 16 chromosomes.

A human has 46 chromosomes (23 pairs), and has likely around 20,000 genes.

Answer:

There is a weak link between advanced organisms and more chromosomes, but some organisms do not follow this rule.

Explanation:

Chromosomes are long strands of DNA associated with histone proteins in a complex arrangement that can be seen under an optical microscope on cells in the metaphase phase of cell division. These structures are located in the nucleus and vary from one species to another. In man, there are 46 chromosomes in each somatic cell.

Although we are bound to believe that more complex organisms have a greater number of chromosomes to manage all of this complexity, however, this is not always true. An example of this can be seen between plants and humans, although humans are more complex, the number of chromosomes is proportional to the number of chromosomes in plants.

Practically speaking, how would you determine that Na + influx into a cell underlies the early current? Group of answer choices
svetlana [45]

Answer:

Remove Na + from the extracellular compartment and assess the early current under new conditions

Explanation:

Na+ is a critical ion that influences the action potential in nerve cells. During the transmission of an impulse, the cell membrane is open so ions can flow through it, i.e., positively charged ions such as sodium ions (Na +) move within the cell, while negatively charged ions move outside the cell. This process produces a change in the action potential by rapidly increasing the positive charge in the nerve fiber, being thus the impulse propagated when this charge reaches +40 mv. In consequence, the effects of Na + on the single-channel current can be analyzed by removing positive ions and determining the change in the reversal potential of this channel.

Restate your position on the lines below in your own words. Do you support or oppose the elimination of lactose from the human d
kolezko [41]
It depends on the individual reaction to lactose. first, some individuals are considered lactose intolerant meaning they lack enzymes that break down lactose into glucose and galactose. hence, if they digest dairy products they can have severe symptoms that will affect their health. however individual who aren’t lactose intolerant benefit from digesting lactose containing products because it improves the individuals health by providing the body with sufficient amount of energy when lactose is broken down to glucose and galactose. Also, consuming Foods in the Dairy Group provide nutrients that are vital for health and maintenance of the body. over all, it all comes down to how an individual will react to such decisions when eliminating lactose. If this decision outweighs the disadvantages then I agree with it however if it doesn’t I completely disagree
