It D. Two oceanic plates moving together
Answer:
6 in total; 3 viable and 3 non-viable
Explanation:
Robertsonian translocation is one of the types of structural alteration in chromosomes, in other words, a rearrangement between chromosomes, which can occur between five pairs of acrocentric chromosomes (chromosomes with the centromere close to the end of one of the "arms"): 13, 14, 15, 21 and 22.
An individual who has Robertson's translocation between chromosomes 14 and 21 generally has only 45 chromosomes.
In addition, a carrier of this type of translocation can theoretically produce 6 types of gametes, however 3 of them are not viable.
As for the three remaining gametes: One is normal, and among the other two, one is balanced and the last is unbalanced.
So, theoretically, when combining a normal gamete, the probability of a child with down syndrome being born through these conditions is 1/3 (considering that the probability of producing a certain type of gamete is equal for the three types).
The endosymbiotic theory explains that mitochondria and chloroplasts descended from the same type of bacteria. Symbiosis is an interaction between two organisms of different species, and <u>endo</u>symbiosis is a type of symbiosis in which one organism lives <u>inside </u>the other one. According to the endosymbiotic theory, a host cell ingested symbiotic bacteria, which specialized into mitochondria or chloroplasts. The evidence for this theory is that mitochondria and chloroplasts, like bacteria, have their own circular DNA. They also have their own transcriptional and translational machinery.
