How many chromosomes are found in the organism that results from the union of a human sperm cell and an egg cell?

A human has a total of 46 chromosomes (23 from daddy and 23 from mommy). :)
A sperm cell has 23 chromosomes and an egg cell that has 23 chromosomes. 23 + 23 equals 46. Sometimes (due to mutations), a person
may have less chromosomes than they need. This may cause some problems like Turner syndrome(treatment can help aid the situation but, it can't be cured).
Hope this helps you :)

Exposing inner mitochondrial membranes to ultrasonic vibrations will disrupt the membranes. However, the fragments will reseal "
Leno4ka [110]

Answer:

Electron transport chain and ATP synthase

Explanation:

The inner mitochondrial membrane contains an electron transport chain and ATP synthesis. Four membrane protein complexes serve as the electron carriers and are embedded in the inner mitochondrial membrane. These protein complexes are called complex I, II, III and IV. Transfer of electrons from NADH and FADH2 to terminal electron acceptor oxygen occurs via these protein complexes.

During electron transfer, the pumping of protons towards the inner mitochondrial membrane creates an electrochemical gradient. The downhill transfer of protons back to the matrix via proton channel of ATP synthase drives phosphorylation of ADP. Therefore, presence of all the protein complexes of the electron transport chain and ATP synthase is required for electron transfer and ATP synthesis.

When the charge inside the cell returns to the resting potential following depolarization, it is called:
scZoUnD [109]

Answer:

Repolarization

Explanation:

Repolarization refers to the phase during which the resting potential is restored after depolarization. This means that the inside of the axon membrane becomes negative again compared to the outside.

Repolarization is obtained by the functioning of K+ ion channels. The opening of K+ ion channels allows the K+ to move outside of the axon. Movement of positively charged ion (K+) outside of axon makes the inside negative again and the resting potential is restored.

Why do birds eat different foods
seraphim [82]

Answer:

Birds will eat different foods based on their environments, and other physical factors.

Explanation:

Birds will eat different things depending on what is the most available in the environment. If there is a lot of fruit, they'll prefer that over bugs and worms. If there is a lot of bugs, they probably will go for those instead of the one or two pieces of fruit.

Physical factors weigh in as well. Birds' beaks can change over many generations to better suit the consumption of certain types of food. HUmmingbirds have long thin beaks so they can get nectar inside of flowers, and they might have a hard time eating a large fruit. Similiarly, other kinds of birds are better adapted to eating certain kinds of food too.

I hope this helps
