In bees, the female queen bee is diploid but male bees are haploid. The fertilized eggs develop into female bees and the unferti

lized eggs develop into males. How might gamete production in male bees differ from normal meiosis

Actually make does not do any meiosis in his life ! gametes are produced via mitosis ! so the ploidy level is maintained ie haploid !

Answer:

It differs in the sense that male bees do not undergo a reduction cell division, they undergo mitotic division to produce gametes instead.

Explanation:

First of all, this phenomenon in bees is called HAPLODIPLOIDY i.e. a system where one sex is haploid and the other diploid. As stated in the question, the fertilized egg (by sperm) becomes the female bee (haploid sperm + haploid egg= diploid bee) while the unfertilized egg (haploid bee) becomes the male bee.

In as much as fertilization occurs, it means that gametes are produced via meiosis. Meiosis, normally, is the kind of cell division that results in daughter cells (gametes) with a reduced number of chromosome (by half). But in this system (haploidiploidy), only the female bee undergoes meiosis to produce the egg cell, the male does not in its production of sperm cells.

Since the male bee is haploid, it can no longer undergo a reduction division (normal meiosis). Instead, it undergoes mitosis, which is a division that produces identical cells with same chromosome number, to produce haploid sperm cells, which then fuses with some of the haploid egg cells to give rise to the diploid female bee. The haploid egg that does not get fertilized eventually develops into the haploid male.

solniwko [45]

Answer:

D

Explanation:

A group or member of a species would overtime become differentiated from the original species that originate from if they occupy a different niche that has a different and unique environmental conditions. In an attempt to adopt to the condition of the new environment, they would develop specific features. For example, the honeycreepers having a bill that are well adapted to eat certain foods.

Therefore, the most likely conclusion the scientist would make is D.

A frameshift mutation that occurs very early in a protein sequence would have what effect on the protein's structure? A. The pri
AlekseyPX

Answer:

C. Primary, secondary, and tertiary structures would be altered

Explanation:

Frameshift mutations refer to the mutations that change the reading frame of the gene. Frameshift mutations are mostly caused by insertion or deletion of nucleotide since addition or loss of nucleotide alters all the codons present downstream of the point of the mutation site. If frameshift mutation occurs at the beginning of the protein sequence, all the downstream amino acids would be altered.

The changed amino acid sequence would alter the primary structure of the protein. Since the secondary and tertiary structure of proteins is determined by interactions between the R groups of amino acids, their polarity, charge, etc., the altered amino acid sequence would also alter secondary, and tertiary of the protein.
