The right answer is Haploid cells join to form an organism that has a complete set of chromosomes.

Meiosis makes it possible to pass from a cell to 2n chromosomes to 4 cells with n chromosomes, thus ensuring the passage from the diploid phase to the haploid phase.

So from the  fertilization phase to the meiosis phase, the cells will be diploid (2n chromosomes). From the meiosis phase to the fertilization phase, it is the haploid phase (n chromosome).

<span>I believe these are the followings:
</span><span>Haploid cells join to form an organism that has half the number of chromosomes as the parent
</span>Haploid cells join to form an organism that has a complete set of chromosomes.
Haploid cells join to form an organism that has double the number of chromosomes as the parent.
<span>Haploid cells join to form an organism that is genetically identical to the parent.</span><span>


Therefore the second one is the statement that best explains why meiosis produces Haploid cells rather than Diploid cells

Haploid cells join to form an organism that has a complete set of chromosomes.</span>

Regulation of oxygen and carbon dioxide levels

An increase of erosion and siltation along waterways

Explanation:

Conservational biologists think about the preservation of ecosystem by maintaining the environment in a human control way.

Increase in ambient global temperatures.: The humans must prevent the increase in global temperature worldwide by preventing the rise of greenhouse gases which can lead to global warming worldwide.

Recyling energy to be used again: The sources of energy like wood, waste water can be recycled again for reutilization.

Regulation of oxygen and carbon dioxide levels.: The oxygen and carbon dioxide levels must be regulated. As oxygen is the basic requirement for respiration. The increase in carbon dioxide levels due to human activities is likely to cause respiratory diseases and health hazards in living beings.

An increase of erosion and siltation along waterways.: The erosion and siltation will likely to deposit nutrients and debris which may either contaminate the waterway or may cause eutrophication.

People who exercise daily, their metabolism rate is very high and the consume sugar, proteins and fat as a substrate for providing ATP molecules. The ATP molecules are then utilized by the body to perform physical work.

The physically active people when they require fat in their diets, the fats first will be stored in the muscle tissue as the cells there will use fat as a substrate for providing a large amount of energy that is 1 g of fat will provide 9 kcal.

Thus, muscle tissue is the correct answer.
