An organism has a haploid number of 6. How many possible assortments of chromosomes are possible based on the independent assort

ement of the chromosomes?
Biology

USPshnik [31]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

64

Explanation:

Assortment of chromosomes according to Mendel, is when alleles on the chromosomes get separated into gametes independenly of one another. Independent assortment reshuffles or rearranges the chromosomal pair in the resulting gametes. 2^n is a mathematical expression that can be used to determine the number of possible chromosome combinations, which n is the number of chromosomes that can be present in one gamete.

In this case, the organism has an haploid number of 6, meaning that 6 chromosomes can be present in the gamete. Hence, 2^6 will give rise to 64 possible combinations of chromosomes in each gamete.

Since IDK which two you would choose, I'll just list all of them: fish have developed a light, streamlined body to get through water quickly to evade predators with and swim with ease, owls have big eyes so their pupils can get enough light to see in the dark since they're nocturnal, their light bodies and special (Fluffy???) flight feathers let it fly with virtually no sound, allowing it to sneak up on prey, tortoises have a large, hard shell for protection from predators and provides a mobile home on their back! Bats may be practically blind but that doesn't stop them when using echolocation to detect prey and chase it no matter what moves they make or obstacles in the way, snowshoe hares have big feet to sit on top of the snow in the cold winters where they live, their fur also changes colors as the snow melts and the plants start coming back in the more warmer seasons, poison dart frogs, sorry, IDK, cacti have developed spines all over them as self defense, (from what IDK) and they can last a long time without water (I think, don't quote me on that ^^') hope this helps

As part of a science experiment, Jose did a test for starch on a slice of apple and a slice of potato. The yellow-orange iodine
Sever21 [200]
If iodine solution reacts with starch, it will change color into black.
Since the yellow-orange iodine solution stayed the same <span>color when it was put on the apple, it can be concluded that there is no starch in the apple. On the other case, the black color of the potato suggests that there is a great amount of starch in the potato. Anyway, this does not mean that there is no starch in the apple at all. As fruits ripen, starch slowly changes to sugar. Iodine cannot react with sugar, so the black color in the apple is missing.</span>

Jamal drew a flow chart to show how the carbon in his brain tissue originated as co2 in the atmosphere. interpret his model.
bezimeni [28]

We have heard about Respiration. In human beings, respiration is a cellular activity which takes place in the presence of oxygen and in result produces carbon dioxide. Jamal model is a clear manifestation of that process. Medulla is the region of a brain that controls the respiration activity. When we breathe we take in oxygen and the excess amount of carbon dioxide is removed from out body.

Brains cells have capability to detect the carbon concentration in blood and add excess amount of carbon from body to the air.

Gwar [14]

Answer:

Symbiosis is any type of interaction between two different species of living things in the same environment. A predator-prey relationship is between two animal species —one kills and eats the other. ... Commensalism is an interaction benefiting one organism, and neither benefiting nor harming the other.
