What is the relationship between dna and chromosomes?

1 answer:

7 0

DNA is organized into chromosomes. The organisms genome is the DNA in all their chromosomes.

During meiosis, the process that creates eggs and sperms, homologous chromosomes line up and recombine, meaning their sequences get mixed up together to form new chromosomes. One of each of these new chromosomes is independently assorted into daughter cells, so that each egg and sperm contain only one chromosome necessary (1n). When the sperm combines with the egg, the zygote (new organism) contains a copy of a homologous chromosome from each parent (2n).

Why is primary production and animal life concentrated at the surface in pelagic regions of the open-ocean?

konstantin123 [22]

Photosynthesising primary producers require sunlight. Therefore, in the ocean, phytoplankton would be concentrated within the surface layers of the ocean where the sunlight penetrates. Phytoplankton support a wide range of marine life: zooplankton feed on phytoplankton, which in turn support fish and so on.
