<h2><u>Full Question:</u></h2>

Which of the following would result in fraternal twins, who don't have identical DNA? A. Two sperm fertilizing a single egg B. One sperm fertilizing a single egg C. Two sperm fertilizing two different eggs that were released in the same cycle D. One sperm fertilizing a single egg that splits into two embryos

<h2><u>Answer</u>: </h2>

Fraternal twins do develop when two sperms do fertilize two different ova that are released at the same time of a menstrual cycle.

Option C

<h3><u>Explanation:</u></h3>

Twins are of two types - Monozygotic twins or identical twins, and Dizygotic twins or fraternal twins.

Fraternal twins develop rarely, when during the menstrual cycle of the would be mother, two ova are released by two ovaries. So, two sperms fertilize the two ova separately. These zygotes develop into two separate embryo in their own separate amniotic sac. Being developed from separate sperm and separate ovum, the twins have not much similar characteristics unlike identical twins.

Only the fraternal twins can have different genders, like one can be male and other female. Monozygotic twins are always of same gender.

Discuss the potential effect on the biosphere if diatoms were prevented from storing their food as oil.
weeeeeb [17]

Answer:

It would prevent them from receiving sunlight and, therefore, to produce photosynthesis, affecting the amount of atmospheric oxygen and disrupting the food web.

Explanation:

Diatoms are a group of microalgae that are important components of phytoplankton, which produce almost half of atmospheric oxygen and are the base of the marine food web.

If diatoms weren't able to store their food as oil, it would prevent them from receiving sunlight and, therefore, to produce photosynthesis as the oil enables them to float in the sea surface. This situation would have detrimental impacts on the food web because, as primary producers, they are fundamental organisms that not only provide oxygen for the marine ecosystem and the atmosphere but they also serve as food for zooplankton, which are then eaten by bigger and important organisms.
