The correct answer is D) production of a zygote with a complete set of chromosomes with genetic material from two parents

The nucleus of a cell is <em>haploid</em> if it has a <em>single </em>set of chromosomes, diploid if it has two sets of chromosomes etc.

Gametes are haploid cells in sexually reproducing organism. During fertilization (conception) in organisms that sexually reproduce, two gametes (haploid cells) fuse with one another which results in a production of a zygote with a complete set of chromosomes with genetic material from two parents. In this case, the zygote is going to be diploid.

The right answer is D.

A gamete is a generally haploid reproductive cell specialized in fertilization, or gamy (that is to say, able to fuse with another gamete, complementary type if necessary), in eukaryotes.

The process that carries out the fusion of two gametes is called fertilization or gamy, it is the complementary event of meiosis. Fertilization produces a new single cell, called a zygote, whose chromosome number has doubled to 2n.

When cells communicate by the signaling process, one cell produces a _________________BLANK that must be received by the _______
velikii [3]

Answer:

1. Signaling molecule

2. Signaling receptors

Explanation:

Hormones, growth factors, neurotransmitters, etc. serve the function of signaling molecules for cells. These molecules are released by one cell and bind to the receptors present on/in the target cells to elicit the desired response. Thereby, the signaling molecules serve in cell-cell communication.

For example, insulin hormone synthesized and released from beta cells of pancreas binds to its cell surface receptors present on the surfaces of liver cells and muscle cells to stimulate the uptake of the glucose from the blood.  

Likewise, neurotransmitters released from the presynaptic neuron bind to receptors present on the membrane of postsynaptic neuron and serve to carry the nerve impulse to the postsynaptic neuron.

agasfer [191]

Answer:

The correct answer is d) genomic imprinting.

Explanation:

Genomic imprinting is a biological process by which specific modifications in the germ line that produce differences in the expression of the genetic material that is biochemically marked indicating its parental origin. The Prader-Willi syndrome is one of the best known and most studied examples in relation to pathologies produced by genomic imprinting. Prader-Willi syndrome is a complex genetic disease that is fundamentally neurological. Its appearance is due to a deletion of a fragment of chromosome 15 derived from the father.

Suppose you plant a seed and observe that a tree of large mass grows from it.The tree achieves a final mass that changes very li
Nadya [2.5K]

The answer should be

B Both anabolic and catabolic reactions took place in the seed and tree when it was young and growing and both continue now even though the tree reached a stable mass.


The trees should be capable to do both anabolic and catabolic reaction when it is seed or when it is already a big tree. Anabolic reaction happens when the plant making bigger molecule from many smaller molecule, such as in photosynthesis. Anabolic reaction could increase the mass of the plants or be used to make food. Catabolism reaction used to extract energy from the food.
