Assuming no genetic recombination, how many genetically distinct types of gametes can a single human being make?

Biology

Georgia [21]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

Explanation:

Each chromosome represents a twin.like pairs of socks.

This is an analogous problem: you have 2 pairs of socks, one white, one black. Each of the sock is tailored to a specic foot, right or left. How many different ways can the socks be mixed and matched , one for each foot?

Here are the possibilities : left = black, right = black is one such match. Left = white, right = black is another.

so also we will have 23 chromosome pairs

Two competing hypotheses to account for the increase in the number of Hox genes from the last common ancestor of bilaterians to
Tomtit [17]

Answer:

The duplication of a cluster of four Hox genes is equally likely as the duplication of a single Hox gene.

Explanation:

This comes from the definition of the parsimony principle, which is the action of choosing the simplest scientific explanation fitting the given evidence, meaning that all other elements are equal when evaluating the hypothesis. In biology the best hypothesis is the one that requires the fewest evolutionary changes.

Since three independent duplications of an individual Hox gene is in  evolutionary terms, more complex than a single duplication or a cluster, then that hypothesis would be the most parsimonious.

kolezko [41]

Complete question:

¿Cual de los siguientes solutos que pueden estar presentes en el liquido extracelular es transportado de acuerdo al modelo de mecanismo propuesto en la ilustracion?

A) Etanol.

B) Calcio.

C) Glucosa.

D) Estrógeno.

E) Oxígeno.

<em>Nota: La ilustración se encuentra como un archivo adjunto.</em>

Answer:

Ión Calcio y Estrógeno son transportados por proteinas canal a traves de la membrana.      

Explanation:

Durante el paso de sustancias al interior o exterior de la celula ocurren dos tipos de transportes. Transporte activo y pasivo. El primero requiere de energia ya que se produce en contra de un gradiente electroquímico. El segundo, por otra parte, no requiere de energía ya que sucede a favor del gradiente electroquimico.

  • El transporte activo es mediado por proteinas transportadoras que actúan como bombas transportadoras.
  • El transporte pasivo puede ocurrir por
  1. difusión simple a traves de la bicapa lipídica (sin ningunaproteina que medie su paso),
  2. difusión facilitada a traves de proteinas canales (estas proteinas tienen forma de poro hidrofílico y permiten el paso de sustancias de un lado al otro de la membrana celular sin sufrir modificaciones. Permiten el pasaje de iones actuando como canales ionicos y de hormonas o neurotransmisores),  
  3. o difusión facilitada a través de proteinas transportadoras o carriers (estas proteinas son altamente selectivas y sufren un cambio temporal en su conformación al hacer pasar una sustancia de un lado al otro de la membrana plasmatica).    

<em>La ilustración adjuntada muestra un ejemplo de </em><em>proteina de canal</em><em> facilitando el transporte de distintas sustancias.</em>

A) Etanol.  Transporte pasivo. Difusión simple a traves de la bicapa lipídica.    

B) Ion Calcio, Ca²⁺.  Transporte pasivo. Difusión facilitada a traves de proteina canal.

C) Glucosa.  Transporte pasivo. Difusión facilitada a traves de proteina transportadora o carrier.

D) Estrógeno.  Transporte pasivo. Difusión facilitada a traves de proteina canal.

E) Oxígeno. Transporte pasivo. Difusión simple a traves de la bicapa lipídica.

xz_007 [3.2K]
The correct answer is <span>d. 62%.

Since Ellie's decision will be based 100 % on Janice's decision, the probability that both will attend the class is 62 % because that is the chance that Janice will attend the class. Since Ellie just depends on Janice, the correct answer is </span><span>d. 62%. I hope this answer helped you. </span>
