The answer is C: "<span>A body cell has 46 chromosomes; a sex cell has 23"</span>

Answer is: C. A body cell has 46 chromosomes; a sex cell has 23.

Chromosome is a DNA molecule with part or all of the genetic material of an organism.

Chromosomes in humans are divided into two types:

1) body chromosomes or autosomes.

2) sex chromosomes or allosomes.

When sex cells unite during fertilization, the haploid cells (23 chromosomes) become a diploid cell (46 chropmosomes).

Body cells have 23 pairs of chromosomes (22 pairs of autosomes and one pair of sex chromosomes), giving a total of 46 per cell.

Alex73 [517]

Nuclear fusion occurs when atomic nuclei are forcefully combined to create a new atomic nuclei or subatomic particles. In nature, this process takes place in our Sun and other stars. Within stars, extremely high temperatures and pressures are achieved and cause nuclear fusion to occur. Humans have not yet been successful in recreating the environment necessary to mimic this process.
