Distinguish between homologous and non-homologous chromosomes.
bulgar [2K]

Answer:

Chromosomes are a microscopic thread-like structure, and it is the part of a cell that carries hereditary information in the form of genes.

Homologous chromosomes the relationship between two chromosome, consists of the same gene sequence, each derived from one parent. They consist of alleles of the same type of genes in the same loci. Homologous chromosomes pair up during the process of meiosis 1. The part of the Homologous chromosomes can be exchanged during the process of recombination. Examples of these are 22 autosomal chromosomes in humans.

Non-homologous chromosomes do not belong to the same pair, they consist of alleles of different types. Non-homologous chromosomes do not pair up during the process of meiosis 1. The part of the Non-homologous chromosomes can be exchanged during the process of translocation. Examples are X and Y chromosomes.

Give two examples of adaptations that can help a species survive<br><br> please fast
Helga [31]

Answer:

Explanation:

Species can have multiple adaptations such as either structural or reproductive adaptation.

Example of structure adaptation for animals would be for giraffe. Their long neck allow them to reach for food high up in the trees. They have adapted to their environment.

Example of reproductive adaptation would be for flowers. The reasons plants have bright colored flowers is so that they can attract insects, birds or even bats which can inadvertently transfer pollen from one plant to another.

Which statement is true about oxygen and nutrient levels of rivers? TIMED TEST
spayn [35]

Answer:

fast moving mountain streams which flow over rocks and waterfalls are high in oxygen due to the amount of surface area of the water that is exposed to the air.

Fast moving mountain streams are high in nutrients. Organisms have adaptations to hold on in fast moving water, resulting in a large diversity organism.

Slow moving flood plain rivers are high in oxygen due to the amount of surface area of the water that is exposed to the air.

Slow moving flood plain rivers are low in nutrients. These rivers move too slow for plant growth and other organisms to survive.
