Answer:

The correct answer is E) eutely

Explanation:

Nematodes are organisms with bilateral symmetry, although their organs are coiled, sometimes one of the limbs is lost and many of sedentary life tend to radial symmetry. One of the most striking characteristics of these animals is that their growth is not produced by an increase in the number of cells that compose them, but by an increase in the size of the already existing cells; in fact, in most adult tissues the number of cells is constant, a phenomenon known as eutelia.

Eutelia is the condition of an organism composed of a constant number of cells or syncytial nuclei in all adult individuals of a species, such as nematodes, it means that body growth is not carried out by increasing the number of cells but by the growth of existing cells.

Answer:

E. Eutely

Explanation:

Nematodes is also called Nemathelminthes. They are small slender worms and the head of a nematode is noticeable when compared to other parts of their body. The head is radially symmetrical while the body is bilaterally symmetrical.

Eutely is however the condition of having a body made up of a constant number of cells usually somatic cells like in the case of certain rotifers and lower worms.

An animal has a diploid chromosome number of 60. Suppose that the first meiotic division of a germ cell is normal, but a single
ella [17]

Answer:

Two gametes end up with 30 chromosomes, one gamete will have 31 and one will have 29.

Explanation:

During meiosis, a single diploid cell divides into four haploid cells with half the chromosome number than the parent cell.

During meiosis I, homologous chromosomes separate and the chromosome number in the two daughter cells goes down by half. During meiosis II, the "sister" chromatids separate, and the chromosome number in the respective daughter cells remains the same.

Non-disjunction of a single dyad in meiosis II causes that one of the daughter cells will have an extra chromosome, and another will be lacking one. The two other gametes will be normal.

I drew a simple example of what would happen during meiosis of a 2n=4 cell if there was non-disjunction in a single dyad during meiosis II.
