The no of chromosomes of a organism of each generation is maintained  due to the meiosis.

<u>Explanation:</u>

The meosis is a kind of reductive division for the higher organisms and for the higher organism it is mitosis. The mitosis is the phase where the organism reproduce asexually, in this phase the two resulting daughter cells always contains the same no of chromosomes as the parent cell from which they derive.

The role of chromosomes is to maintain the each cell division is constant. It help us to enable us to grow and self maintenance of the body.

Answer:

<em>The number of chromosomes is maintained through the process of mitosis during asexual reproduction. </em>

Mitosis can be described as a process in which a cell divides and produces two daughter cells which are exactly similar to the parent cell. The chromosome number of the daughter cells will be the same as the parent cells. No crossing over or recombination occurs during this type of cell division. Hence, mitosis is an effective way to maintain the chromosome number of organisms which reproduce asexually.

  • It is Neptune and it is a <u>gas giant</u>.
  • It has mostly gaseous composition, such as hydrogen and helium.

Neptune is the eighth and farthest known planet of the Solar System. It is also the third most massive planet.

<h3>Part 6.</h3><h3>Celestial body G has a core that consists of iron sulfide mixed with nickel and is the second smallest planet in the solar system.</h3>
  • It is mars and it is a<u> terrestrial planet</u>.
  • Mars is the second smallest planet while mercury is first smallest planet after the exclusion of Pluto from solar system.

The surface of mars is covered by talcum powder type dust. It contains elements besides silicon and oxygen, are iron, magnesium, aluminum, calcium, and potassium.

<h3>Part 7.</h3><h3>Celestial body I had a core composed of nickel iron alloy rock surrounded by an outer layer of hot fluid. The fluid contains water, ammonia, and methane body I has 27 moons .</h3>
