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

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.

.For the our health because if the environment is saved the we are able to get the fresh air.

.For decreasing global warming because if environment is saved then the pollution is controlled.

.For decreasing deforestation which can control landscape because saving the environment can also be taken as saving trees.

For saving the animals because the habitat of animal is forest which need to be protected by protecting environment.

.For saving the natural resource which are also the reasons of income because it attracts tourists.

Photosynthesis has oxygen as a waste product. what is the waste product during cellular respiration
zubka84 [21]

Answer:

carbon dioxide, water, ATP

Explanation:

the equations for photosynthesis and cellular respiration are exact opposites. The reactants for photosynthesis are the products for respiration.

<u>photosynthesis:</u>

6CO₂ + 6H₂O + ATP (energy) ---> C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6O₂

<u>respiration:</u>

C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6O₂ ---> 6CO₂ + 6H₂O + ATP

Which statement best explains why herbivores are not considered parasites
Finger [1]

Answer:

Hello There!!

Explanation:

The answer is=>Parasite means that the organism must live inside (intracellular) or on the outside body of the organism (extracellular). The herbivores do not live on the host (plants) for its survival. They just eat the plants and fruits for getting energy. Therefore, the herbivores cannot be called as parasite.

hope this helps,have a great day!!
