kherson [118]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

No information can be inferred

Explanation:

Chromosome number provides no reference for establishing any relationship between organisms. The number of chromosome cannot depict whether a living species belong to plant kingdom or animal kingdom. It cannot even depict the evolutionary history of any species. Thus, the organism with lesser chromosome has not necessarily evolved from the species having larger number of chromosome or vice versa.  

Chromosome number can only depict the quantity of genetic material with in an organism and hence no relationship can be established living species only on the basis of chromosome number.

Frozen water (ice) has less density than liquid water.
WARRIOR [948]
The ice has less density than liquid water, so it floats on the water surface. Therefore during the winter all the lakes and rivers are frozen only at a top. Deeper layers of water are cold, but still liquid and it allows fish and other organisms to survive. Moreover, the ice cover provides temperature isolation so liquid water beneath the ice has more or less constant temperature (around 4 dgr Celsius)
