Answer:

The correct answer is option C, The zygote has 56 chromosomes, 28 inherited from the mother and 28 from the father.

Explanation:

Elephant is a mammal just like human beings and the process of cell division is pretty much similar in both the types of species. In humans an offspring has 46 chromosome , 23 donated by mother and the rest 23 donated by father thereby producing a diploid cell. In the same way in an elephant,  of the total chromosome number in the offspring cell, equal contribution shall be from both the parents.

Rotenone is a poison commonly added to insecticides. Rotenone binds tightly with one of the electron carrier molecules in the el
Scorpion4ik [409]

Answer:

True.

Explanation:

Rotenone is a broad spectrum pesticide and insecticide and is also considered as a non-selective piscicide.

The action mechanism of the rotenone has been described below -

It interferes with the electron transport chain which occurs in mitochondria of the cells. Here the transfer of electrons from complex I to the ubiquinone is inhibited by the rotenone. As a result, ATP formation with the help of NADH is also inhibited. When electron transport fails, oxygen in the cell is reduced to oxygen radical which further damages DNA and other components present in the mitochondria.
