Q:- You may have heard through various media of an animal alleged to be the hybrid of a rabbit and a cat. Given that cat (Felis

domestica) has a diploid chromosomes number of 38 and a rabbit (Oryctologus cuniculus) has a diploid chromosomes number of 44, What would be the expected chromosomes number in the somatic tissues of this alleged hybrid?

Answer:

41 chromosomes

Explanation:

Cats have a dipoid chromosome number of 38, <u>so their gametes will have half that number: an haploid number of 19 chromosomes</u>.

Rabbits have a dipoid chromosome number of 44, <u>so their gametes will have an haploid number of 22 chromosomes</u>.

When a cat gamete (n=19) joins with a rabbit gamete (n=22) to form the hybrid zygote, it will have 19+22=41 chromosomes. When it undergoes mitotic division, all its somatic cells will have 41 chromosomes.

What statements is true of sex linked inherited diseases such as hemophilia
Mandarinka [93]
Hemophilia is carried on the X chromosome. If it is passed on to a son it came from its mother. If a daughter inherits it it could have came from either parents or even both. If from the father he himself would have been a hemophiliac. Hope this helps.

rodikova [14]

Cancerous growths are clonal in origin because of cancer cells originate from a single cell that has accumulated genetic changes during cell division.

The human body contains several billion cells. Cells are the teeny, tiny building blocks of our tissues and organs. Every one of us was once a single cell. That cell divided into two new cells after internal replication.

Cells become abnormal when the DNA, which holds the instructions needed for cells to operate, is damaged. The cells they make after that will not be similar to healthy ones. Along with having a variety of appearances, they might also possess different traits. The medical word for this kind of abnormal cell proliferation in body tissue, including skin, is dysplasia. As long as there aren't many abnormal cells and our immune system controls them, we won't get sick from them.

Sometimes these cells can vanish on their own. Only when these cells continue to change and start to divide erratically, leading to lumps or growths, does one of the more than 200 diseases recognized as cancer become apparent. These kinds of growths are tumors.

The complete question is:

Cancerous growths are clonal in origin because of cancer cells __________.

multiple choice questions.

(A). can invade healthy tissues originating from a single cell that has accumulated genetic changes during cell division

(B) can migrate to other areas of the body and form secondary tumors at the new sites

(C) can form a tumor that is localized only at one site
