The irght answer is 8.
Each parent will give half of its chromosomes to its offspring through the gametes (which are haploid cells, containing n chromosomes) which will then fuse (male and female gametes) to form a diploid 2n chromosome cell and will eventually give rise to a new individual.
So each parent will give 8 of these chromosomes to their offspring.
Answer: Diffusion
Explanation
Diffusion refers to the process that describes the movement of fluid from areas of high concentration to low concentration. Osmosis is the opposite of diffusion and refers to the movememnt of low concentrations to high.
<span>Notice a couple of things
different between (A) and (B). It was NOT the first time a biologist
proposed that species changed through time (so it's not B). But it
finally *solidified* that idea by giving "change through time"
(evolution) a MECHANISM. It gave a plausible explanation for WHY
species change over time, in a testable way that made sense and had
evidence to support it.
So it finally dismissed the idea that species are constant.
It also emphasized that the simple presence of *variation* within a population was a key reason for evolution.
While we're at it ... (C) is wrong because it's not *individuals* that
acclimate (adapt) to their environment, but the population (the species)
as a whole.
And (D) is wrong because it had nothing to do with economics or the monarchy.</span>
