"You discover a new species of snail, Biologica terificia, and find that its haploid number is 4 (n = 4). The somatic cells of B

iologica terificia are diploid. How many chromosomes are in a somatic cell of the snail in G1 phase?

Answer:

8 chromosomes

Explanation:

Diploid state is when an organism have two set of chromosomes (2n) i.e. combination of two haploid (n) gametes containing one set of chromosome each. Sexually reproducing organisms whose somatic or body cells are diploid (2n) undergo meiosis to produce gametes or sex cells with haploid number (n).

Therefore, in the newly discovered Biologica terificia species of snail, if the haploid state (n) of their gametes is 4, then their diploid (2n) somatic cells must be 4 × 2 = 8.

The question specifies the chromosomal number at the G1 phase of Interphase. At this stage, the cell is preparing to undergo division by increasing in size and duplicating its organnelles but not yet its genetic material which is not until the next phase called S-phase. Hence, the chromosome number of somatic cells remain 8 at the G1 phase.

Zanzabum

Answer: If this doesn't help just let me know

The abiotic factors will define which organisms are able or not to live in a specified place. The living organisms will constitute the biotic factors, which define if and how can an organism live in a specified environment. So, the abiotic factors are controlling the biotic factors of an environment.

Why do your fingers look like prunes after swimming for a long time?
Alina [70]

Answer:

pruney fingers are caused by shrinking blood vessels. When you soak in water, your nervous system sends a message to your blood vessels to shrink. Your body responds by sending blood away from the area, and the loss of blood volume makes your vessels thinner.

Why are electrons in an atom involved in bonding
Leno4ka [110]

Answer:

The valence electrons have a role in the bonding of two atoms. The nuclei of each atom are drawn together by their attraction to the valence electrons of the other atom. As the atoms are drawn together by their attractions, electrons from each atom are drawn to the nuclei of both atoms, where they are "shared."
