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.

How does the light source readout differ from the x-ray readout in the gizmo??

Nuetrik [128]

X-rays differ from the light source readout in terms of the intensity and the possible damage that can be obtained from the two radiation types. The light source readout is more damaging than the X-rays readout in the gizmo. Therefore, precaution is required when handling the light source readout in the gizmo.

Cloud [144]

Answer: -345.2 KJ

Explanation: As we know that ,dG=dH-TdS

T=25+273=298 K

dG= -356 x1000-298(-36)= -356000+10728

=-345272 j

= -345.2 KJ
