ACHONDROPLASTI DWARFISM is a condition that is characterized as long, narrow trunk, short limbs and a large head. It is the most common type of dwarfism and it occurs in about 1 out of 40.000 babies. Other features of the condition include: protruding jaw, flattened bridge of the nose, forward curvature of the lower spine and bow legs.
Answer: During mitosis a eukaryotic cell undergoes a carefully coordinated nuclear division that results in the formation of two genetically identical daughter cells.

Answer:
Explanation:
<u>a. How many chromosomes does a child receive from its father?</u>
Every person receives half of their chromosomes from their father and half from their mother. For that reason, if humans have 46 chromosomes in each somatic cell, 23 of them come from the father.
<u> b. How many autosomes and how many sex chromosomes are present in each somatic cell? </u>
Each somatic cell has 46 chromosomes in total; of which 22 pairs are autosomes and 1 pair are sex chromosomes. Therefore, 44 chromosomes are autosomes and 2 chromosomes are sex chromosomes (the X and/or Y chromosomes).
<u>c. How many chromosomes are present in a human ovum? </u>
The human gametes (ovum in women and sperm cell in men) have half of a somatic cell's genetic material, so that when they combine in a zygote to create their child, they form an initial cell with 46 chromosomes in total. The ovum therefore has 23 chromosomes: 22 autosomes and 1 sex chromosome.
<u>d. How many sex chromosomes are present in a human ovum?</u>
As I mentioned in the previous question, a human ovum has 1 sex chromosome. That way, when it combines with a sperm cell, which also has 1 sex chromosome, they form a zygote with <u>a pair</u> of sex chromosomes (one that comes from the mother and one from the father).
If an object has a net force acting on it, it will accelerate. The object will speed up, slow down or change direction. An unbalanced force<span> (net force) acting on an object changes its speed and/or direction of motion. An unbalanced force is an unopposed force that causes a change in motion. A net force = unbalanced force. </span><span>If however, the forces are balanced (in equilibrium) and there is no net force, the object will not accelerate and the velocity will remain constant. the source i found this answer is, https://www.mansfieldct.org/Schools/MMS/staff/hand/lawsunbalancedforce.htm
