Answer:

<em>The result of the union will be ' All future somatic cells of the organism will contain the (2n + 1) number of chromosomes. '</em>

Explanation:

As we know, fertilization is a process in which the egg cell and the sperm cell join to form a zygote. If an egg cell which contains n+1 number of chromosomes joins with a sperm cell containing n chromosomes, then the zygote formed will have n+n+1 i.e 2n + 1 number of chromosomes.  The zygote  goes through multiple cell divisions to form different cells. All the somatic cells are formed by mitosis. As mitosis produces identical daughter cells hence, all of the somatic cells will have 2n + 1 number of chromosomes.

Individuals producing an abnormal form of the extracellular matrix protein, fibrillin, is a result of ______.
erastova [34]

Answer:

Indivisuals with producing an abnormal form of extracellular protein fibrillin are suffering from Marfan syndrome ehich is caused by genetic mutation in the FBN1 gene.

Explanation:

Gene mutations in FBN1 gene results in the production of an abnormal extracellular matrix fibrillin-1 protein that cannot function properly. These gene mutations basically reduce the amount of fibrillin-1 produced by the cell, alter the structure of fibrillin-1, or causes the impairment of the transport of fibrillin-1 out of the cell.

As a result, protein is poorly incorporated into extracellular matrix. Hence, indivisuals with Marfan syndrome present following symptoms

Tall stature.

Disproportionately long arms, legs and fingers.

Sternum either protrudes outward or dips inward.

Arched palate and crowded teeth.

Heart murmurs.

Extreme nearsightedness.
