if the chromosome number in the sporophyte generation of a plant is 32 what is its number in the gametophyte generation?

1 answer:

3 0

Chromosomes have hereditary function that are capable of self-duplication and they have thread-like structures seen inside the nucleus of plant and animal. In plants, they go through a cycle called alteration of generation that has multicellular stages. One is sporophyte that is a diploid, and the other is gametophyte with a haploid.

<span>Moreover, spores are produce through meiosis so it go through a process of chromosome reduction in order to create a haploid spores. While, gametes undergo mitosis and the structure is already a haploid, which means that the number of chromosomes will not change in order to produce haploid. In this case, the plant have both spores and gametes and the similarities is that, they are both singles celled and a haploid. Therefore, the number of the chromosome in the gametophyte generation is also 32.</span>

A reading shows a pressure measurement of 43 in. Hg. What is the equivalent pressure in psi? A. 5.73 psi B. 2223.13 psi C. 26.32

oksian1 [2.3K]

43 inHg = 43 inHg*2.54cm/in = 109.22cmHg * 10 mm/cm = 1092.2 mmHg

14.7 psi = 760 mmHg

1092.2mmHg * 14.7psi / 760 mmHg = 21.13 psi

Answer: option D. 21.13 psi

Using wolfram alpha or some other reference, determine which of these elements would be liquid at 525 k (assume samples are prot

romanna [79]

The choices for this problem are bismuth, Bi; platinum, Pt; selenium, Se; calcium, Ca and copper, Cu. I think the correct answer would be selenium. The melting point of bismuth is at a temperature of 544.4 Kelvin. At a temperature of 525 K, it would exist as solid. Platinum melts at 2041.1 K. At 525 K, platinum would be in solid form. Selenium has a melting point at 494 K so that at a temperature of 525 K, it would exist in its liquid state. Calcium has a melting point of 1112 K so it would exist as solid at 525 K. Copper has a melting point at 1358 K, so it would still exist as solid at a temperature of 525 K. Therefore, the answer would only be selenium.

Calculate the electric double layer thickness of a alumina colloid in a dilute (0.1 mol/dm3) CsCI electrolyte solution at 30 °C.

Ad libitum [116K]

Explanation:

The given data is as follows.

Concentration = 0.1 $mol/dm^{3}$

= 0.1 \frac{mol dm^{3}}{dm^{3}} \frac{10^{3}}{dm^{3}} \times \frac{6.022 \times 10^{23}}{1 mol} ions

= $6.022 \times 10^{25} ions/m^{3}$

T = $30^{o}C$ = (30 + 273) K = 303 K

Formula for electric double layer thickness ( $\lambda_{D}$ ) is as follows.

$\lambda_{D}$ = $\frac{1}{k} = \sqrt \frac{\varepsilon \varepsilon_{o} K_{g}T}{2 n^{o} z^{2} \varepsilon^{2}}$

where, $n^{o}$ = concentration = $6.022 \times 10^{25} ions/m^{3}$

Hence, putting the given values into the above equation as follows.

$\lambda_{D}$ = $\sqrt \frac{\varepsilon \varepsilon_{o} K_{g}T}{2 n^{o} z^{2} \varepsilon^{2}}$

= $\sqrt \frac{78 \times 8.854 \times 10^{-12} c^{2}/Jm \times 1.38 \times 10^{-23}J/K \times 303 K}{2 \times 6.022 \times 10^{25} ions/m^{3} \times (1)^{2} \times (1.6 \times 10^{-19}C)^{2}}$

= $9.669 \times 10^{-10}$ m

or, = $9.7 A^{o}$

= 1 nm (approx)

Also, it is known that $\lambda_{D}$ = $\sqrt \frac{1}{n^{o}}$

Hence, we can conclude that addition of 0.1 $mol/dm^{3}$ of KCl in 0.1 $mol/dm^{3}$ of NaBr " $\lambda_{D}$ " will decrease but not significantly.

Explain the volume of ideal gasses as related to the molar concept.

horrorfan [7]

Answer:

n = Initial volume/22.4L

Explanation:

The molar concept is simply one that is used to find the Number of moles and explain the relationship it has with avogadro's number, molecular mass, molar mass e.t.c.

Now, in terms of molar mass, number of moles is given by the formula;

n = mass of the sample/molar mass

In terms of avogadro's number, number of moles is;

1 mole = avogadro's number = 6.02 × 10^(23)

Now, when dealing with ideal gases, the molar volume of an ideal gas is 22.4 L.

Now the relationship between this volume and the mole concept is that the number of moles is gotten by dividing the initial volume by this molar volume.

Thus;

n = Initial volume/22.4L
