A chicken is a sexually reproducing organism that undergoes meiosis to produce gametes. Meiosis is a type of cell division that involves the production of daughter cells (gametes) that have their chromosomal number reduced by half.
Hence, if the somatic or body cell of the chicken being ingested by Amanda contains 78 chromosomes, it will undergo meiosis to produce a sperm or egg that has 39 chromosomes i.e. reduced from diploid (2n) to haploid (n).
Somatic or body cells are diploid and are denoted by 2n number of chromosomes. During meiosis, specifically after meiosis I in cell division, the chromosome number is reduced to half the number of that of the somatic cell, and is referred to as haploid, which is denoted by n number of chromosomes.
Therefore, if the somatic cell of the bird has 78 chromosomes, the sex cell (unfertilized egg or sperm) would contain half of the number of chromosomes of the somatic cell = 39 chromosomes.
May not be right, but because of Oxygen and the growing of new skin? We rub our skin without noticing and it will become frail and rub off, creating new skin
Gases are natural and in the ground, metals are also in the ground as are non metals -just look at dirt- and minerals are usually found in geodes, which are usually fallen bits of asteroid and meteorite that has survived earth's atmosphere
Decomposers play a critical role in the flow of energy through an ecosystem. They break apart dead organisms into simpler inorganic materials, making nutrients available to primary producers.
They adapt and survive because of Natural Selection
Explanation:
The sea animals die off if they cannot survive under certain conditions so they adapted to having eyes that can see, and other necessary survival tools for the bottom of the deep sea.
