The answer is D. 3.33 A

In parallel connected devices, circuits are also placed parallel. It is known that in parallel circuits, total voltage is equal to the voltage of each device. 

So, we know that:
Device 1 - R1 = 12 ohms
Device 2 - R2 = 4 ohms
Total voltage - V = 40V = V1 = V2

If V = I × R, for the first device is V1 = I1/R1.
⇒ I1 = V1 ÷ R1
⇒ I1 = 40 V ÷ 12 ohms
⇒ I1 = 3,33 A

How many sperm cells are created from the process of meiosis
Lorico [155]
While mitosis produces 2 daughter cells from each parent cell, meiosis results in 4 sex cells, or gametes in males and 1 in females. Unlike the cells created by mitosis, gametes are not identical to the parent cells. In males, meiosis is referred to as spermatogenesis because sperm cells are produced.
