Answer: d. ​dismantling stored fat in fat cells and releasing components into blood.

Explanation:

Fat is a biomolecule which is concentrated as a source of energy. It is provides more than twice the potential energy as compared to proteins or carbohydrates. When the body experience the lack of energy and not enough energy is available from food source then the stored fat in triglycerides are broken into fatty acids and releasing the components into the blood.

What are the steps of meiosis
zlopas [31]

Answer:

In meiosis I there is prophase I, metaphase I, anaphase I, and telophase I and then in meiosis II there is prophase II, metaphase II, anaphase II, and telophase II.

Explanation:

In meiosis I we have;

Prophase I in which a pair of homologous chromosomes line up and form a tetrad. This is the stage during which genetic recombination occurs.

Metaphase I occurs, during which the homologous chromosomes line up opposite each other at the metaphase plate. The chromosomes orientate themselves randomly, thus homologous chromosomes are distributed randomly to daughter cells .

In Anaphase I, homologous chromosomes move to opposite sides of the cells but sister chromatids remain together. Each cell now has 23 chromosomes.

Telophase I in which the homologous chromosomes move to the poles and cytokinesis occurs. Two daughter cells are formed.

In meiosis II we have;

Prophase II (note: there is no interphase as seen in mitosis) during which chromosomes start to move to the metaphase II plate. There is no replication.

Next is metaphase II when the chromosomes align at the metaphase II plate.

In anaphase II the sister chromatids separate from each other and move towards opposite poles.

Lastly, in telophase II cytokinesis occurs again and four daughter cells are produced. Each of the four daughter cells has 23 chromosomes.

e) The allele for small size is recessive, and the allele for normal size is dominant. The frequency for the normal-size allele
ki77a [65]

Answer:

51.84%

Explanation:

p² + 2pq + q² = 1 and p + q = 1

p = frequency of the dominant allele in the population

q = frequency of the recessive allele in the population

p²  = percentage of homozygous dominant individuals

q²  = percentage of homozygous recessive individuals

2pq = percentage of heterozygous individuals

p = 0.72 => p² = 0.72² = 0.5184

=> Percentage of the rats are normal sized: 51.84%
