A mitochondrion has just been engulfed by a cup-shaped isolation membrane as it undergoes mitophagy. Before lysosomal fusion, ho
harkovskaia [24]

Answer:

Option-C

Explanation:

Mitophagy refers to the process which is evolutionarily conserved in the organisms to remove the dysfunctional mitochondria in the cell.

The mitochondrial is degraded by the digestive organelles by engulfing the mitochondria.

The mitochondria are engulfed by the lysosome and then phagosome is formed which is double membrane structure. This phagosome matures into the autophagosome and now has the mitochondria engulfed.

Since the mitochondria contain toe layer and during mitophagy engulfed by the phagosome, therefore, there is a total of four-layer.These four layers separate the matric of the mitochondria with the cytosol.

Thus, Option-C is the correct answer.

Which type of molecule acts as a signaling molecule in yeasts?
zhuklara [117]

Answer:

The correct answer is the option - mating factor.

Explanation:

Yeast can reproduce sexually by a signaling pathway called the mating factor pathway. Mating in yeast occurs between two haploid yeast cells. In this process, two yeast cells form a diploid cell.

In this process yeast cells secrete a signaling molecule termed as the mating factor that is used to attract them to mating cells to form a diploid cell.

Thus, the correct answer is option - mating factor.

You may have heard through various media of an animal alleged to be the hybrid of a rabbit and a cat. Given that the cat (Felis
Katyanochek1 [597]

Answer:

The correct answer is - 2n = 41 chromosomes.

Explanation:

It is given that the cat has a diploid chromosome number of 38 while the rabbit has a diploid number of 44 chromosomes and if they form a hybrid then their expected chromosome number in somatic cells would be -

Cat (2n=38) produces haploid gametes with 19 chromosomes (n-19).

Rabbit (2n=44) produces haploid gametes with 22 chromosomes(n=22)

19+22= 41 chromosomes in the particular hybrid as half number of chromosomes come from each parent.
