Answer:
c
Explanation:
Random distribution of the Isopods should be 50/50 in A and B.
Chi-square =
where O = observed frequency and E = expected frequency
Chamber O E Chi-square
A 18 10
= 6.4
B 2 10
= 6.4
<em>Total Chi-square </em>= 6.4 + 6.4 = 12.8
<em>Degree of freedom</em> = 2 - 1 = 1
<em>Tabulated Chi-square</em> (α = 0.05) = 3.8415
The calculated Chi-square exceeds the critical value, hence, it is significant and not due to random.
<em>The correct option is </em><em>c</em><em>.</em>
The correct answer is:
The principal cause of aneuploidy is chromosome nondisjunction during mitosis or meiosis. Polyploidy in nature can result either from the duplication of euploid chromosome sets from a single species or from the combining of chromosome sets from different species.
Aneuploidy is a phenomenon when there is the presence of an abnormal number of chromosomes in a cell (an extra or missing chromosome). Usually it appears as a result of improper cell division (chromosomes don’t separate) and it can cause many genetic disorders.
Polyploidy refers to a state when there are more than two sets of chromosomes (one from mother one from father). Triploid (three sets of chromosomes) and tetraploid (four sets of chromosomes) chromosomes are examples of polyploidy. This phenomenon is most common in plants.
Answer:
The organism belongs to the Protista kingdom as it is unicellular, has cell walls, and has the ability to produce spores.
