Answer:

21 chromosomes

Explanation:

Meiosis is a type of cell division that produces 4 haploid daughter cells (i.e., gametes) from a single diploid cell. This parental cell undergo one (1) cycle of DNA replication and two (2) cell divisions, thereby, in the case of the Norway rats that have 42 chromosomes, the final number will be 21 (21 x 2= 42)

Answer:

21 chromosomes and 21 molecules of DNA at the end of meiosis II

Explanation:

The end of meiosis II that occurs on each cell will give rise to four mature cells, or gametes, and each cell will have 21 chromosomes because the number of each cell has to be half of the initial diploid cell to allow the correct number after the formation of the zygote. Each cell will also contain 21 molecules of DNA because the mature cell after the meiosis has to be haploid.

What is a “strain” of bacteria? How is it possible that some strains of staphylococcus aureus can be harmless, but others can be
cluponka [151]

A strain is a low-level taxonomic rank used at the intraspecific level (within a species). While the majority of the members of the same species have very high similarity in their genomes, there occasionally is a  proportion of the species that has a little different genome from the popular species group. This variability results in different strains on the species.

A harmless Staphylococcus aureus may have a muted virulence gene. However, either due to mutation of the gene or recombination with the harmful strain, a harmless Staphylococcus aureus could easily turn virulent (harmful).
