Ans. (A). diploid.

Gametes can be defined as male or female germ cells that unite with gamete of opposite sex to form a zygote. Gametes are formed by meiosis and thus, each gamete is haploid, consists half the number of chromosomes as present in a normal cell.  

When male and female gametes (sperm and egg, respectively), it leads to formation of zygote. As each gamete is haploid in nature, resulting zygote has two sets of chromosomes (one from each gamete), which means zygote is diploid in nature.

Thus, the correct answer is option (A).

What is the starfish experiment?​
vitfil [10]

Answer:

When starfish were removed from their environment, the species richness of that area went down. This was because the starfish ate the mussels, and when the starfish were removed, the mussels became abundant and preyed on many of the other species.

This experiment showed that the starfish were a keystone species. A keystone species is a species that has a low biomass but a large impact on the community they are living in.

brilliants [131]

Answer:

Transamination reaction:

Transmaination reaction may be defined as a type of chemical reaction that involves the transfer of an amino group to the another keto acid fort the formation of new amino acid. The non essential amino acid can be easily converted to essential amino acid by this transmination reaction.

This reaction is important for the important mteabolic pathways of the body. The cofactor required for the transamination reaction is pyridoxal-5'-phosphate. This cofactor also works as a derivative of vitamin B6. This cofactor is converted to pyridoxamine-5'-phosphate during the reaction.
