The haploid number of the chromosomes should be 32. 

Diploid number means that they have the complete sets of chromosomes in their cells, these cells are usually found in somatic (body) cells and different organisms have a different number. For example, a human somatic cell has 46 chromosomes, such as a muscle cell, or a skin cell etc. 

Meanwhile, haploid number means that the number of chromosomes in the cell only have half of the chromosome number than that of the diploid cells. These haploid cells are usually found in gametes of sexually reproducing organisms, such as human, we have 23 chromosomes in our sex cells. This is important because we have to make sure the chromosome number of offsprings are not doubled, as during sexual reproduction, male and female gametes fuse together to form a zygote. 

Therefore, to calculate the haploid number of a cell, we can divide the diploid number by 2, which is 64/2, and the answer would be 32.

How can competition lead to speciation
kvasek [131]

Answer:

Theoretically, competition can initiate divergence in habitat use between individuals of a species, leading to restricted gene flow and eventual speciation. Evidence that sister species differ in habitat use is commonplace and consistent with this mechanism, but empirical experimental support is surprisingly scarce.

In general, why might cell-wall inhibiting antimicrobial drugs be less effective on gram-negative bacteria compared to gram-posi
Zanzabum

Mutation rate of Gram negative bacteria is much greater than that of Gram positive bacteria.

Explanation:

The gram positive types of bacteria responsible for causing diseases in humans. It is called as Gram positive bacteria. Both the bacteria are different in structural and physical properties. It is defined as the group of bacteria’s which positive result in gram stain test.

Gram negative bacteria are the group of bacteria’s which gives negative result to the gram stain test. This classification is done according to the cell wall. The cause of common disease by Gram positive bacteria is our anthrax, diphtheria, etc.

Gabbro and _____ have similar chemical characteristics.
torisob [31]
The answer is a. basalt. Gabbro rocks are more related to basalt in terms of chemical characteristics. They are both igneous rocks but basalt is an extrusive rock that cools quickly while gabbro is intrusive and cools slowly. So, basalt rocks are fine-grained while gabbro are coars-grained.

Which of the following options correctly describes the behavior of a tetrad during anaphase 1 of meiosis?
Svet_ta [14]

The answer is; C

Homologous chromosomes have the same genes on the same loci. However, they may have different forms of the same gene called alleles. These sister chromosomes, of a homologous pair, separate during anaphase I of meiosis. The two daughter cells formed will, therefore, have half the genetic material as the parent cell. This is because they will only have one set of the genes (as in diploid organisms) and are called gametes.
