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

1 answer:

5 0

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 :)

Water leaves the internal cavity of a sponge through the

Trava [24]

If I'm not mistaken, it leaves through the osculum which is a cavity located on the upper part of a sponge.

Sponges feed through a process called filtration, which means that they filter the water in search of nutrients. And after they collect everything they need from the water, they need to let it out somehow; through the osculum.
