Answer:

Cells with 2 copies of each chromosome are called <u><em>diploid</em></u>, whereas cells with 1 copy of each chromosome are called <u><em>haploid</em></u>.

Explanation:

Cells which comprise of homologous pairs of chromosomes are known as haploid cells. For example, the autosomal cells in humans contain 23 pairs i.e 46 chromosomes in them.

Cells which have only one copy of the chromosome are termed as haploid cells. For example, the sex cells of the humans i.e egg cell and sperm cells comprise of 23 chromosomes. This is half the number of chromosomes than the autosomal cells.

KATRIN_1 [288]

Answer:

Heterozygous

Explanation:

An organism in which the two copies of the gene are identical — that is, have the same allele — is called homozygous for that gene. An organism which has two different alleles of the gene is called heterozygous. Pea plants can have red flowers and either be homozygous dominant (red-red), or heterozygous (red-white). If they have white flowers, then they are homozygous recessive (white-white). Carriers are always heterozygous.

11111nata11111 [884]

Answer:

Explanation:

Pure substances contain only one element or compound.

Calcium is one element so it is a pure substance. Ice and water have the same molecular structure, so it is a pure substance. Aluminum oxide is a chemically pure compound.

The only example that is not a pure substance is muddy water due to the multiple components of mud mixing with the components of water.

Hope that helps.

Which of the following explains why nonrenewable energy resources are still so widely used. Select multiple
egoroff_w [7]
Non renewable resources can be very expensive, especially in capital outlay. For example, wind energy is very expensive to get started. The batteries alone are a headache. What do you do with those batteries whose life is over? How do you dispose of them? It isn't an easy problem to solve.

Then there's the labor part of wind energy. If they are manufactured in Denver Co and they receive an order from Maine, the blades require a wooden plywood box to be made. Plywood is roughly 20$ a 1/2 sheet (in Canada) to say nothing of the carpenter needed to make the box. I'm told that it takes a good day and one half just to make that box alone. That's for 1 blade. Then there's the shipping cost for 3 blades. Then there's the cost of making the blades which require highly skilled workers. 

Then there's the problem of wind, (or lack thereof). the problems just keep on going up and the expenses with them.
