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.

describe how the current modern atomic theory and model differs from the model jj Thompson proposed ?
myrzilka [38]
J.J Thompson’s model shows a sphere with electrons that are moving around freely. However, Thompson’s model does not show protons or neutrons. The model that we have today gives a clearer structure showing protons, neutrons, and electrons inside an atom.

When the equation Al(OH)₃ + H₂SO₄ ---&gt; Al₂(SO₄)₃ + H₂O is balanced, the sum of the balancing coefficients is
denis-greek [22]

Answer:

The answer to your question is the letter D. 12

Explanation:

Unbalanced chemical reaction

               Al(OH)₃  +  H₂SO₄  ⇒   Al₂(SO₄)₃  +  H₂O

           Reactants              Elements         Products

                  1                            Al                      2

                  1                            S                       3

                  5                            H                      2

                  7                            O                      13

Balanced chemical reaction

              2Al(OH)₃  +  3H₂SO₄  ⇒   Al₂(SO₄)₃  +  6H₂O

           Reactants              Elements         Products

                  2                            Al                      2

                  3                            S                       3

                 12                            H                     12

                 18                            O                     18

Sum up the coefficients

Result = 2 + 3 + 1 + 6

          = 12
