Explain why different gametes produced by the same person can have different combinations of alleles for genes that are located

on two different chromosomes
Biology

Gnoma [55]2 years ago

Because we all have 23 pairs of chromosomes, one half from your Dad, one half from your Mum. Therefore, you will have different combinations of genes in your chromosomes from being born. However, when gametes are formed from Meiosis, the chromosomes are split apart, then form a new cell before being split apart yet again. Since 4 cells are created from Meiosis, all 4 gametes will be completely different. Hope this answered it.

How is it possible for organisms to undergo both punctured equilibrium and gradualism?
lawyer [7]

Answer: Gradualism and punctuated equilibrium are two ways in which the evolution of a species can occur. A species can evolve by only one of these, or by both. Scientists think that species with a shorter evolution evolved mostly by punctuated equilibrium, and those with a longer evolution evolved mostly by gradualism.

Which marine pairings typically exhibits mutualism?
nikdorinn [45]
<span>I believe the answer is: clownfish/anemone

Clownfish is very territorial in nature. So, when they hide within the anemone, the clownfish would prevent smaller fishes from eating the anemone. In return, the anemone would prevent the bigger fish from reaching the clownfish when they hide in it.</span>

Explain why it is important to animals for the major carbohydrate storage polymer, glycogen, to be branched rather than unbranch
kolezko [41]

Answer: A branched polymer has greater terminal glucose residues in comparison to a unbranched polymer of the same molecular weight resulting in a higher number of terminal glucose residues required to be mobilized when energy is demanded. Enzyme and polymer evolve together to meet the dire need for rapid mobilization.

Explanation:

In comparison to an unbranched polymer, a branched polymer has a more compact and symmetrical molecular conformation with a greater terminal glucose residue. It can be broken down easily when energy is needed. For instance, the branched form of starch, amylopetin, in the small intestine starch is hydrolyzed to form glucose which is converted to biochemical energy and stored for later use.
