Answer:

The correct answer will be option-A

Explanation:

Chromosomal abnormalities are caused when the chromosome pair fails to disintegrate through a process called non-disjunction. The non-disjunction of chromosomes usually takes place at the anaphase I or II of meiosis I which involves the X and Y chromosomes.  

The abnormality observed with 45 chromosomes or reduction in one sex chromosome or 45, XO is caused when one X copy of a chromosome is completely absent in the cell.  

The cause for the loss of one chromosome is the non-disjunction during meiosis I.

Thus, option-A is the correct answer.

Place the following australopithecines in the chronological order in which they likely lived, from oldest to most recent.
kotegsom [21]

<u>Australopithecus anamensis,</u><u> Australopithecus afarensis, Australopithecus garhi, Australopithecus sediba .</u>

<h3>What is the oldest australopithecine?</h3>
  • Au. anamensis, the earliest Australopithecus species, was found in northern Kenya, close to Lake Turkana, in Kanapoi and Allia Bay.
  • After examining solitary teeth, upper and lower jaws, skull pieces, and tibia bones discovered at the discovery locations, the species was initially described in 1995.
  • At least seven species of australopithecines are now generally recognized, including Australopithecus afarensis.

<h3>What are the 7 stages of human evolution?</h3>

The following are the stages of human evolution:

  • Dryopithecus- These are deemed to be the ancestors of both man and apes.
  • Ramapithecus.
  • Homo Erectus.
  • Homo Sapiens Neanderthalensis.
  • Homo Sapiens Sapiens.

An organism is heterozygous for a gene that follows Mendels law of dominance which allele will be expressed as its phenotype
stellarik [79]

Answer:

The dominant allele

Explanation:

The dominant allele will be expressed because in a heterozygous genotype, the phenotype will always show the dominant gene (in Mendelian genetics)

This is because the dominant allele will dominate the recessive one and it will "mask" the recessive allele.
