Which of the following events could cause a trisomy in a diploid zygote?

Biology
1 answer:
elena-s [515]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

In a diploid zygote, the cause of trisomy is two sister chromatids remain joined during meiosis II (option B).

Explanation:

At the end of meiosis I, each daughter cell contains a chromosome formed by sister chromatids, each of which must be separated in meiosis II to form the gametes with a chromosome charge equivalent to half the chromosome charge of the species.

The result of the sister chromatids not separating in meiosis II -by not disjunction- results in a gamete with an extra chromosome, which when joined to another gamete results in a zygote with an additional chromosome, which is considered an aneuploidy, called trisomy.

Where is the protein on a DNA?​
QveST [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

The type of RNA that contains the information for making a protein is called messenger RNA (mRNA) because it carries the information, or message, from the DNA out of the nucleus into the cytoplasm. Translation, the second step in getting from a gene to a protein, takes place in the cytoplasm.

What role does transpiration play in the water cycle
Airida [17]

Transpiration is the process by which moisture is carried through plants from roots to small pores on the underside of leaves, where it changes to vapor and is released to the atmosphere. Transpiration is essentially evaporation of water from plant leaves. Transpiration also includes a process called guttation, which is the loss of water in liquid form from the uninjured leaf or stem of the plant, principally through water stomata.

Studies have revealed that about 10 percent of the moisture found in the atmosphere is released by plants through transpiration. The remaining 90 percent is mainly supplied by evaporation from oceans, seas, and other bodies of water (lakes, rivers, streams).

Transpiration and plant leaves

Plants put down roots into the soil to draw water and nutrients up into the stems and leaves. Some of this water is returned to the air by transpiration (when combined with evaporation, the total process is known as evapotranspiration). Transpiration rates vary widely depending on weather conditions, such as temperature, humidity, sunlight availability and intensity, precipitation, soil type and saturation, wind, land slope, and water use and diversion by people. During dry periods, transpiration can contribute to the loss of moisture in the upper soil zone, which can have an effect on vegetation and food-crop fields.
